Thorne Research's Betaine HCL & Pepsin product provides supplemental support for digestive health. Each serving consists of Betaine Hydrochloride (HCL) and Pepsin, designed to assist the natural digestive processes in the stomach. Betaine Hydrochloride is a source of hydrochloric acid, a component of stomach acid crucial for breaking down food and absorbing nutrients. Pepsin is a digestive enzyme responsible for breaking down proteins into peptides.

This product includes 225 capsules per bottle. Each capsule contains 500 mg of Betaine Hydrochloride and 23 mg of Pepsin. The suggested use is one to two capsules with each meal, or as recommended by a healthcare practitioner.

The formulation supports individuals with low stomach acid production, which may result in symptoms like bloating, indigestion, or nutrient deficiencies. By enhancing the stomach's acid environment, it aims to improve digestion efficiency and nutrient absorption.

Thorne Research emphasizes purity, with this product free from gluten, soy, dairy, and other common allergens. It does not contain artificial preservatives, colors, or flavors. The capsules are made from gelatin and water, making them unsuitable for vegetarians and vegans.

This product is manufactured in facilities that are certified for Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP), ensuring quality and safety. It is recommended to consult with a healthcare provider before beginning any new supplement, especially for individuals with medical conditions, pregnant or nursing women, and those taking medications.
