Betain-HCl & Pepsin
Thorne Betaine HCl & Pepsin is a combination of hydrochloric acid (HCl) and the protein-digesting enzyme pepsin. It promotes proper protein digestion and maintains healthy stomach acid levels. Stomach acid is hydrochloric acid and is not safe for ingestion. By binding HCl to betaine, HCl is released into the stomach in a more gentle manner.
Low stomach acid
Many digestive problems can be traced back to one single underlying cause: insufficient stomach acid.
Factors such as a removed gallbladder, the use of antacids, and the natural aging process can contribute to insufficient stomach acid secretion. This can negatively affect the function of digestive enzymes and lead to poor protein digestion, resulting in occasional indigestion, flatulence, bloating, and other forms of stomach and intestinal discomfort.
An optimal stomach pH is also important for absorbing essential nutrients such as folic acid, vitamin B12, vitamin C, beta-carotene, iron, and minerals.
Lactose-free formula
Betaine HCl & Pepsin stands out from other brands by using pure, undiluted, and lactose-free pepsin in combination with betaine HCl.
No harmful additives
Thorne avoids additives that may simplify production, but can impair absorption in the human body and cause allergies. This is particularly important for people with digestive issues.
Pure, high quality
The product has been tested and certified by an independent body, ensuring its quality and purity. It is also free of dairy, gluten, and soy.
