Size:120 NOW Betaine HCl is formulated to support properdigestive conditions in the stomach. Hydrochloric Acid (HCl) is normallyproduced in the stomach, where it assists protein digestion by activatingpepsin, helps to maintain a healthy balance of gut flora, and stimulates therelease of intestinal enzymes. Pepsin is a protease produced in the stomachthat partially breaks down proteins in foods. HCl production tends to declinewith age, so supplementing with HCl and pepsin may help to maintain normaldigestive function. This product uses a vegetarian acid-stable protease withactivity equivalent to that of animal-derived pepsin. Brand Story By
