Enzyme Helps Flatulent Fathers
JERSEY CITY, N.J., June 14 /PRNewswire/ -- For the many fathers who suffer
from episodes of flatulence or gas, a natural food enzyme may be the secret to
a healthier and happier home life.
A major cause of gas is the food we eat. A natural food enzyme, such as
Beano(R) brand, can help stop that gas before it starts, according to Dr.
Nancy Grande, Block Drug Company. (Call 800-GET-BEANO to receive a free

"Foods such as baked beans, cole slaw and summer vegetables, the kind you
might have on Father's Day, can contribute to the creation of gas," says Dr.
Grande. "Advances in food enzymes allow gas sufferers to maintain healthy
diets without worrying about discomfort and embarrassment. That's good news
for Dads and their families."
The natural-source food enzyme in Beano breaks down indigestible sugars
into simpler sugars that are digestible, according to Dr. Grande. Because
these sugars are broken down and absorbed, their fermentation and consequent
gas formation are largely averted.
"Products like these are a scientific and a social breakthrough that can
help eliminate many uncomfortable social situations," Dr. Grande says.
"Everyone produces gas every day. As we grow older, the incidence of gas
becomes more frequent. The use of food enzyme dietary supplements can help
gassy Dads and their families enjoy their food and each other."

drug stores, supermarkets and mass merchandising outlets nationwide.
