Benefits
*Increases stomach acid to properly break down food
*Enhances digestive function
*Cholesterol support
*Reduces gastric inflammation
Betaine hydrochloride, derived from beets, increases stomach acid to enhance digestion. This is especially important for older people, particularly those over 60, who may not produce enough stomach acid to properly digest food and nutrients. HCL makes the stomach produce more acid and also stimulates the secretion of pancreatic enzymes, further aiding digestion. Not only does insufficient stomach acid interfere with digestion, a low level of stomach acid can increase the potential and severity of certain bacterial and parasitic intestinal infections. The low pH created by HCL destroys microorganisms that enter the gastrointestinal tract.
Nutritionally-oriented health care practitioners note that people with chronic health problems such as gallstones, allergies, and asthma, often do not produce enough stomach acid. Fenugreek: stimulates digestion, reduces gastric inflammation, and lowers cholesterol.
SUPPLEMENT FACTS: Each capsule contains:
Betaine hydrochloride (Beta vulgaris)..... 500 mg
Fenugreek seed....................................... 100 mg
SUGGESTED USE:2 capsules at mealtime three times per day. Maximum daily dose, six capsules per day or as directed by a health care practitioner. Keep out of the reach of children.
CONTRAINDICATION:* Anyone taking aspirin or aspirin-containing compounds or anti-inflammatories, such as indocin, butazolidin or cortisone, should avoid betaine HCL.
* The combination of betaine HCL and these drugs could increase the risk of ulcers.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
Children: Suitable for children at one-half the adult dosage.
Pregnancy and Nursing: Because the effects of betaine HCL during pregnancy and lactation have not been sufficiently studied, it is generally advised that it not be taken by women planning a pregnancy, or who are pregnant, or breastfeeding. Consult with your health care practitioner prior to use.
