With Pepsin and Betaine HCI: Essential gastric juices necessary for digestion
Hydrochloric acid, which is abbreviated as HCl, is present is gastric juices that are needed to break down the foods we eat. HCl is used in the early stages of digestion and it helps break down large particles into smaller bits that your body can then absorb. Additionally, pepsin is an enzyme that helps digest proteins found in dairy products, meats, eggs, and other animal-based foods. Not only this, but this enzyme also encourages the production of bile in the liver and destroy some of the toxins that would otherwise end up in our bloodstream. Because of this, Betaine HCl Pepsin can help regulate stomach acidity, aids protein digestion, and supports healthy gastric function.

FAQs About Pure Encapsulations Betaine HCl Pepsin Capsules
Q: What does this one help with? A: It’s mainly used for stomach acid and protein digestion. Each capsule has 520 mg of betaine HCl and 21 mg of pepsin, so people usually take it with meals when they feel heavy, too full, or like food is just sitting there.
Q: How should I take Pure Encapsulations Betaine HCl Pepsin? A: Take one capsule with each meal, up to three times a day. I’d take it in the middle of the meal or right after you start eating, not on an empty stomach.
Q: Does this help with B12 and iron absorption? A: Yes, that’s one reason people use it. Stomach acid helps break down food and can also help your body absorb things like vitamin B12, iron, calcium, and protein.
Q: Why does this one include pepsin too? A: Pepsin helps your stomach break down protein, and it works alongside stomach acid. This one has 21 mg of pepsin at 1:10,000 potency, and it comes from pork.
Q: My doctor said I might have gastritis or an ulcer. Should I take this? A: No, I wouldn’t use this if you have an ulcer or a history of ulcers. Stop taking it right away if you get a burning sensation, and check with your doctor before using it if your stomach is already irritated.
Q: Does it have any medication concerns? A: Yes. If you take acid reducers, ulcer meds, or anything for stomach irritation, check with your doctor or pharmacist first. Adding betaine HCl may not be a good fit.
Q: Is this vegetarian? A: Not fully. The capsule is vegetarian, but the pepsin is porcine, so this one isn’t vegetarian or vegan.
