Betaine HCl
Product information
Designs for Health Betaine HCl is a powerful supplement that combines 750 mg of betaine hydrochloride (HCl) with pepsin , a key digestive enzyme naturally produced in the stomach. This formula is designed to support stomach function and protein digestion.
What is Betaine HCl?
Betaine HCl is a source of hydrochloric acid (stomach acid), which is essential for proper digestion of food, especially protein-rich meals. Sufficient stomach acid helps activate digestive enzymes and supports nutrient absorption.
What is pepsin?
Pepsin is an enzyme active in the stomach that helps break down proteins into smaller amino acid chains. It works best in an acidic environment and therefore forms a logical combination with betaine HCl.
