Betaine HCL Plus Pepsin - Benefits
Improve digestion and maintain normal acidity in the stomach with this product that is designed to provide betaine hydrochloride combined with pepsin to enhance protein assimilation and to stimulate the normal release of gastric HCL.
Enhancement of gall bladder activity is also aided by the presence of ox bile. Normal acid in the stomach is required for protein digestion and to ensure solubility of minerals for optimum absorption.
For instance, without sufficient levels of HCL, iron absorption is significantly reduced. Gastric acid is essential in all areas of digestion.
The release of HCL not only initiates protein digestion in the stomach but also improves the release of pepsin in the stomach, pancreatic enzymes in the duodenum and intestinal enzymes in the brush border of the small intestine.
Bile release from the gall bladder is also stimulated. A lack of normal gastric acidity is a leading contributor to indigestion in the elderly.
