The active dietary ingredients in EGUSIN® contain a unique 5-fold mode of action:
· Antacids- which are known to be gastric acid neutralizing buffers which provide instant and sustained neutralization of excess corrosive gastric acid to protect the stomach lining against destruction
· Lecithin- a phospholipid proven to protect the hydrophobic lining of the gastric mucosal membranes and epithelial surfaces against destruction from corrosive gastric acid
· Pectin- acts as a barrier for the gastric mucosal membranes against excess gastric
acid · Dietetic fibers-stabilize the function of the stomach and stimulate the appetite · Micro-milled whole oats (groats) with a high content of fibers-having a positive
dietetic impact on the intestinal system
In addition to the unique combination of selected antacids, dietary supplements and fibers, both EGUSIN® products contain micro-milled whole oats (groats).
The nutritional health benefits of oats have been accepted for centuries. Egusin contains a unique micro-milled whole oats meal-which allows the oats to retain a high proportion of valuable dietetic fibers and nutritional components.
Beneficial dietetic fibers and nutritional components: · Beta-glucan-gels in the stomach, acting as a coating for the stomach lining. · Insoluble oats fibers- delay the stomach emptying which aids in preventing
gastrointestinal disorders. · Polar lipids- rich phospholipids aid in re-establishing the stomach lining. · Natural antioxidants- aid in protecting the muscle cells from degradation by the
free radicals.
