Solgar Betaine Hydrochloride with Pepsin 100tabs

Solgar Betaine Hydrochloride provides a safe and effective dose of Hydrochloric acid (stomach acid) plus pepsin, an enzyme that breaks down proteins in food.

If stomach acid production is low this may result in insufficient breakdown of food resulting in digestive problems.

The stomach naturally produces hydrochloric acid to keep its contents acidic. This is important for killing opportunistic pathogens, releasing other digestive enzymes and Vitamin B12 synthesis. However as we age, our product of acid decreases, so a supplement can be useful to help replace some of the lost acidity.

• Supports digestion
• Assists the stomach to break done proteins
• May help ease bloating, belching and flatulence
• May help to increase stomach acid levels
