BioCare HCl & Pepsin
HCL & Pepsin is a combination of Betaine Hydrochloride and Pepsin encapsulated allowing for quicker release of the ingredients. HCL & Pepsin is deliberately low potency to allow flexibility in adjusting intake according to individual requirements.
Hydrochloric Acid and Pepsin are secreted in the stomach to enable effective digestion. They are particularly critical to the digestion of proteins. Many factors can impair the production of hydrochloric acid, which is a very demanding task for the body. These may include: nutritional deficiencies, infections, stress, certain drugs, yeast infections and many others. Adequate quantities of hydrochloric acid are essential for the absorption of many minerals and provides an acidic environment to prevent the passage of most bacteria into the body beyond the stomach. The correct pH (acidity) is also essential to activate many digestive enzymes that act upon food in the stomach and the intestines, this includes pepsin itself.
- HCl provides the optimal environment (around pH 2) for pepsin activity
- Encapsulation allows for a quicker release of the ingredients and reduces the likelihood of gastric wall irritation that can sometimes occur with tablets
- Low potency therefore allowing for more flexibility in adjusting individual requirements
