Table of Contents
What Is Betaine HCl?
Betaine HCl is a supplemental form of hydrochloric acid. Hydrochloric acid is normally produced in the stomach and helps create the acidic environment needed for normal digestion.
Stomach acid also helps activate pepsin, an enzyme involved in breaking down proteins from food. NOW Betaine HCl 648mg provides supplemental HCl along with a vegetarian acid-stable protease to support this digestive process.
Digestive Support
Proper stomach conditions are an important part of normal digestion. Betaine HCl supports the acidic environment of the stomach, which plays a role in protein digestion and normal digestive function.
This supplement is intended to be taken with meals. It should not be taken on an empty stomach because Betaine HCl may cause stomach irritation.
Protein Digestion
Protein digestion begins in the stomach. Hydrochloric acid helps activate pepsin, while protease enzymes help break down proteins from food.
NOW Betaine HCl combines Betaine HCl with acid-stable protease to provide digestive support, especially with meals that contain protein.
