Betaine HCL 500 mg
Betaine hydrochloride, derived from beets, increases stomach acid to
enhance digestion. This is especially important for older persons,
particularly those over 60, who may not produce enough stomach acid to
properly digest food and nutrients. HCL makes the stomach produce more
acid and also stimulates the secretion of pancreatic enzymes, further
aiding digestion.
Not only does insufficient stomach acid interfere with digestion, a low
level of stomach acid can increase the potential and severity of certain
bacterial and parasitic intestinal infections. The low pH created by HCL
destroys microorganisms that enter the gastrointestinal tract.
Nutritionally-oriented doctors note that persons with chronic health
problems such as gallstones, allergies, and asthma, often do not produce
enough stomach acid.
Fenugreek: stimulates digestion, reduces gastric inflammation, lowers
cholesterol.
