Buy productWhat is Betaine HCl?
648 mg Vegetarian Formula. NOW® Betaine HCl is formulated to support proper digestive conditions in the stomach.

Pepsin is a protease produced in the stomach that partially breaks down proteins in foods. HCl production tends to decline with age, so supplementing with HCl and pepsin may help to maintain normal digestive function. This product uses a vegetarian acid-stable protease with activity equivalent to that of animal-derived pepsin. Natural colour variation may occur in this product -
