Description
High protein diets require high stomach acid and sufficient pepsin (a proteolytic enzyme) to digest and assimilate proteins fully and rapidly.
Low stomach acid is common and can result from:
Stress
H-pylori infection
Using anti-acids (PPIs)
Poor gut health (dysbiosis)
Aging
HD Muscle Betaine HCL is a highly bioavailable source of hydrochloric acid (HCL). In the stomach’s gastric juice, high acidity is required to chemically digest our food, especially proteins.
