Vitakruid Betaine HCL 650 mg & pepsin 160 mg

Natural source of the body's own enzymes
The digestive system is a complicated but well-organized system. Everything we consume through food finds its way through an extensive digestive process. The first stop our food reaches is the stomach. The stomach produces hydrochloric acid and various enzymes necessary for the digestion of fats, carbohydrates and proteins. The enzymes betaine HCL (hydrochloride) and pepsin (peptase) occur naturally in our body.

Superior source of 650 mg betaine per tablet
Betaine hydrochloride (HCL) is the hydrochloride salt form of the enzyme betaine. Typically, the stomach itself produces hydrochloric acid as soon as fats or carbohydrates reach the stomach. Due to factors such as overconsumption of carbohydrates and fats, stress and old age, the production of hydrochloric acid in the stomach decreases.

Ultimate synergistic formula
Supplementation with betaine HCL and pepsin works as an extremely powerful synergistic formula. A particularly close-knit team that strengthens each other in action. The body does not produce pepsin directly as an active enzyme. The parietal cells in the stomach produce pepsinogen, the precursor of pepsin. The hydrochloric acid (betaine HCL) in the stomach cavity then transforms pepsinogen into the active form pepsin. Only now can pepsin do its work within our body. A lot of pepsinogen is lost during the conversion of pepsin. It is therefore extremely efficient to supplement the active forms pepsin and betaine.

Addition of pepsin with a high enzyme activity
When selecting a good enzyme, you should not necessarily pay attention to the dosage of an enzyme, but to the so-called enzyme activity. Vitakruid has added no less than 160 mg pepsin to this combination with an extremely high enzyme activity of 1:3000. High activity is easy to recognize: the higher the second number, the more active the enzyme in the combination in question. The activity of an enzyme is not stated on many products. Vitakruid stands for transparency and that is why we always mention the enzyme activity on our labels!

Test kit
If you are not completely sure whether Betaine HCL 650 is the product for you, a handy test kit has been developed. The test kit contains ten tablets with which you can easily check whether Betaine HCL with pepsin is a suitable product for you! Take one tablet containing 650 mg betaine HCL and 160 mg pepsin halfway through a main meal rich in protein and fat. If the discomfort does not worsen, but rather decreases, supplementation with betaine HCL can help.
