Product Description

NOW Foods Betaine HCl is a digestive aid supplement that helps optimise stomach acidity for better protein digestion and supports overall digestive comfort. The key ingredients team up, betaine hydrochloride with a acid-stable protease, to support protein breakdown and smoother digestion. NOW Foods maintains a longstanding commitment to quality, with GMP manufacturing, routine third party testing, and vegetarian, non GMO sourcing.

Available Sizes & Variants:

120 vegetarian capsules - Convenient daily dosing in a vegan capsule.

Benefits & Features:

  • Supports protein digestion by boosting stomach acidity, helping with meal time comfort.
  • Betaine hydrochloride increases gastric acidity to support activation of digestive enzymes.
  • Acid-stable protease speeds protein breakdown.
  • Vegetarian ingredients are backed by third party testing for peace of mind.
  • NOW Foods manufactures in GMP facilities with routine third party testing and allergen controls.

NOW Foods has built a longstanding reputation for quality and openness. The acid-stable protease used here is derived from Aspergillus niger, replacing animal-derived pepsin, and every batch is tested for major allergens. Vegetarian, non GMO ingredients and GMP manufacturing support safety and consistency. The brand’s commitment is evident in third party testing and allergen controls across facilities. This may support gut flora balance, a goal often pursued alongside probiotics for gut health.

The Active Ingredient Is: Betaine HCl

Betaine HCl is basically a digestive helper that supports stomach acidity, which helps the normal digestion of proteins. This form is paired with an acid-stable protease to help break down proteins in the digestive system.

The acid-stable protease comes from the fungus Aspergillus niger, giving a vegetarian option that lines up with vegan and non-GMO sourcing practices.

What Does Betaine HCl Do?

Betaine HCl helps keep the normal digestion rolling by supporting stomach acidity, which helps wake up natural digestive enzymes in the stomach. This helps break down proteins and release intestinal enzymes as part of healthy digestion.

Evidence from EU/UK guidance and clinical contexts reinforces the role of gastric acidity in digestion and nutrient processing, with betaine-related mechanisms described as part of normal physiology.

This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.
