Betaine HCl with pepsin

Betaine HCl with pepsin supports the digestion of food in the stomach. As we get older our body slows down and this also applies to our stomach. Stomach acid production decreases, but remains essential for the breakdown of food. Stomach acid has several functions; For example, it sterilizes the eaten food, makes it acidic and also activates the powerful protease (protein splitter) pepsin and makes it possible to extract Vitamin B12 from the food. After this, the food enters the intestines, where it is further converted into the various nutrients.

Betaine HCl contributes to normal homocysteine metabolism with a daily intake of 1,500 mg betaine. Dosages above 4,000 mg significantly increase cholesterol levels.
