💊 Digestive enzyme Biodiastase 2000

👨👩👧 Suitable from 5 years old
Product Overview
Garol is a digestive medicine loved for over 80 years since its launch by Zeria Pharmaceutical in 1942. Unlike comprehensive gastrointestinal medicines containing many antacids and stomachic ingredients, it features a simple formula specialized in enhancing digestion.
Chosen for stomach discomfort caused by decreased digestion such as indigestion after fatty meals, post-meal indigestion, or lack of appetite. Since bile secretion tends to decrease with age, it is widely used not only by elderly people but also by those who frequently consume high-fat modern diets.

● Features
One of the functions of the gastrointestinal tract is to digest food taken from meals using gastric juice, bile, and digestive enzymes, and to absorb nutrients. When the secretion of digestive enzymes from the stomach, intestines, and pancreas, as well as bile, decreases, digestive power declines, making it difficult for nutrients to be absorbed into the body. Garol enhances digestion and improves indigestion and loss of appetite.
