Betaína HCl/Pepsina
Betaine HCl y pepsina promueven la acidez estomacal óptima, la digestión de proteínas y la actividad enzimática.
La indigestión puede ser causada por muchas cosas, incluida la cantidad inadecuada de ácido clorhídrico (HCl) en el estómago. La secreción de HCl en el estómago tiene varios efectos positivos. Ayuda a la digestión de proteínas al activar el pepsinógeno a pepsina, esteriliza el estómago contra los patógenos ingeridos, inhibe el crecimiento excesivo indeseable en el intestino delgado y estimula el flujo de bilis y enzimas pancreáticas. El ácido clorhídrico también facilita la absorción de varios nutrientes, incluidos el folato, la vitamina B12, el ácido ascórbico, el betacaroteno, el hierro y algunas formas de calcio, magnesio y zinc. Numerosos estudios han demostrado que la secreción de ácido clorhídrico en el estómago comienza a disminuir con la edad. El uso excesivo de antiácidos o bloqueadores de ácido también puede conducir a niveles bajos de ácido clorhídrico en el estómago, lo que puede provocar una mala digestión de las proteínas. La Betaine HCl y Pepsina de Thorne proviene de una fuente porcina.
La indigestión afecta a millones de personas todos los días. Para algunos, se produce por el consumo de alimentos grasos. Para otros, los carbohidratos simples (como el pan y la pasta) pueden causar gases e hinchazón. Y para otras personas, los alimentos picantes pueden causarles molestias. Aunque lo que comemos influye en gran medida en la frecuencia y la gravedad de la indigestión, esta molestia también podría estar relacionada con un problema subyacente: el bajo contenido de ácido clorhídrico (HCl) en el estómago.
Situaciones como enfermedades, extirpación de la vesícula biliar, uso excesivo de antiácidos y el envejecimiento normal pueden contribuir a una secreción insuficiente de ácido estomacal, lo que puede afectar negativamente la actividad de las enzimas digestivas y provocar indigestión ocasional, gases, hinchazón y otras formas de malestar gastrointestinal.* La maldigestión también puede provocar problemas digestivos y una mala absorción de nutrientes, lo que resulta en deficiencias vitamínicas (particularmente vitaminas liposolubles como las vitaminas A, D, E y K). Las alergias alimentarias pueden desarrollarse cuando las proteínas digeridas de forma inadecuada se absorben a través de un intestino permeable. A medida que las proteínas grandes se absorben intactas, el cuerpo podría reconocerlas como extrañas y crear anticuerpos contra ellas, lo que resulta en una respuesta alérgica al alimento. Para asegurar una digestión óptima, una persona debe asegurarse de tener un contenido adecuado de HCl en el estómago.
Tomar 1-2 cápsulas con cada comida o según lo recomendado por su profesional de la salud.

My husband has been taken this as directed now for 4 weeks. It has helped him to cut down on his munching and grazing in the pantry at night. He loves that he has cut down on portion size and has lost 7 lbs so far. Very good product for him. Gave him the ability to do what he was already trying to do - cut back on food intake. This just made it easyier for him. Thx

I’ve been mixing the calendula oil with my regular body lotion, and my skin is ecstatically happy. And I smell great as well. Will purchase again.
I take them at night and they do not upset my stomach!
