Pure Fun™ Peppy Pepsin and Pepsin Swirl will get you in the groove!
Today, the flavor we call Pepsin is a form of Wintergreen. At one time Pepsin was used for the digestion of proteins in an acid environment and prepared them for further digestion.
Pure Fun™ Pepsin is derived from Wintergreen plant extract with the old fashioned flavor we enjoyed in the 1950’s and 60’s back again in scrumptious hard candies!
Wintergreen is a redeeming herb with its late season display of bright green leaves and vivid red berries. Mother Marie de L'Incarnation helped to spread the plants medicinal reputation after learning of its benefits from Native Americans in the 16th century. Several Native American tribes used wintergreen as a tea for colds and flu, and as a poultice to ease arthritis and rheumatism.
Pepsin is one of three naturally occurring enzymes in the digestive system known to settle and upset stomach. We aren’t sure if Pure Fun™ candies helping your tummy is anecdotal or it’s because the candy just tastes so great that you start feeling better!
Do you think there really could be some medicinal value in the flavor Pepsin?
