Betaine HCl 120caps - Health Projects

Designs for Health Betaine HCl is formulated with 750 mg of betaine hydrochloride (HCl) along with pepsin, one of the body's main protein-digesting enzymes. Betaine HCl may support digestive function and promote normal protein digestion, especially for individuals with low stomach acidity.

This product is supplied in capsule form to ensure delivery of the ingredients to the stomach, where they are needed to begin protein digestion.

Betaine HCl provides hydrochloric acid (HCl), or stomach acid, as an essential component for proper digestion. HCl breaks down food, especially protein, in the stomach before moving to the small intestine for further digestion and absorption.

HCl also triggers the secretion of pepsin, an enzyme important for protein digestion. Low stomach acid can lead to lower pepsin levels, which is why Designs for Health Betaine HCl also includes pepsin. Stomach acid is also important for the absorption of certain micronutrients, such as vitamin B12, calcium, magnesium, zinc, iron, and selenium. Low stomach acid can impair digestive functions, especially protein digestion. HCl also helps protect the stomach from potentially pathogenic bacteria and other microbes.
