Description
- Betaine HCI w/ Fenugreek increases stomach acid to enhance digestion. HCl assistsin protein digestion by activating pepsinogen to pepsin, renders the stomachsterile against orally-ingested pathogens, prevents bacterial or fungalovergrowth of the small intestine, encourages the flow of bile and pancreaticenzymes, and facilitates the absorption of several nutrients including folicacid, ascorbic acid, beta-carotene, non-heme iron and some forms of calcium,magnesium and zinc. However, in the absence of adequate HCl, poor digestion canarise leading to bloating, belching, indigestion, and diarrhea or constipation.
- Numerous studies have shown acid secretion declines with advancing age andimpaired HCl production and secretion is correlated with a variety of clinicalconditions, including food allergies, asthma, diabetes, thyroid disorders,osteoporosis and arthritis. While the underlying etiological factors leading toimpaired or absent HCl secretion are not well understood, long termsupplementation is generally safe and may be effective in certain patientpopulations and clinical conditions.
- Combining betaine HCl with fenugreekfurther supports digestive function and health, as fenugreek seeds are anexcellent source of mucilage, which helps soothe gastrointestinal inflammationby coating the lining of the stomach and intestine.
