PRODUCT INFORMATION

Betaine HCI Pepsin & Gentian Bitters 120caps is a targeted digestive supplement combining three key ingredients to optimize stomach acid production and nutrient absorption. This formula supports natural hydrochloric acid (HCl) levels, enhancing the stomach's ability to break down proteins and facilitate efficient digestion.

Key Ingredients & Their Roles:

Betaine HCl works by supporting the stomach's natural production of hydrochloric acid, which is essential for breaking food into smaller, absorbable particles. By promoting a lower gastric pH, Betaine HCl may improve nutrient bioavailability, particularly for those with insufficient stomach acid production.

Pepsin is a protein-digesting enzyme activated when pepsinogen meets stomach acid. This enzyme is critical for protein breakdown and is naturally produced by the body—this supplement ensures adequate pepsin availability for complete protein digestion.

Gentian (Gentian lutea) is a traditional European and Asian herb valued for supporting digestive function. Its bitter compounds naturally stimulate the secretion of digestive enzymes and support gastric secretion production, making it a time-tested digestive tonic.

How It Works: Together, these three components create a synergistic formula that supports the entire digestive cascade—from initial stomach acid production through enzyme activation and nutrient absorption. This makes it ideal for those seeking comprehensive digestive support.

Supplement Details
Betaine HCl Pepsin & Gentian Bitters contains three nutritional factors that perform complementary functions designed to support the efficiency of the digestive process. Research suggests that the efficiency of stomach acid production may be altered with the ageing process. Supplementing with Betaine HCl may support the stomach’s digestive capacity. Pepsin is an enzyme produced by the body to digest protein containing foods in the stomach. Pepsin works in conjunction with stomach acid to support protein digestion. Gentian is an herb used traditionally in many cultures to optimize digestive capacity and tonify the digestive tract. Its bitter nature may help to stimulate the body’s production of digestive enzymes. For optimal digestive support, use Betaine HCl Pepsin & Gentian Bitters in conjunction with Doctor’s Best Digestive Enzymes, a uniquely formulated, full-spectrum high potency digestive enzyme blend.
