About This Product

Thorne Research B.P.P - Betaine HCL & Pepsin

Indigestion affects millions of people every day. For some, eating fatty foods can bring on heartburn. For others, simple carbohydrates (like bread and pasta) may cause gas and bloating. And for other individuals, spicy foods can cause them grief. Although what we eat greatly influences the frequency and severity of indigestion, this discomfort could be related to an underlying problem poor digestive enzyme activity, which may be supported by Betaine HCL with Pepsin.

Situations such as illness, gall bladder removal, overuse of antacids, and normal aging can contribute to insufficient secretion of stomach acid, pancreatic enzymes, and bile, and can adversely affect digestive enzyme activity and lead to occasional heartburn, gas, bloating, and other forms of gastrointestinal discomfort.

Benefits:

for optimal stomach acidity
promotes protein breakdown and absorption
benefits individuals with occasional indigestion
available in bottles of 225 capsules
