Pepsin plus Betaine HCL 60 pcs
Pepsin plus Betaine HCL
This dietary supplement from NaturVital contains the protein-splitting digestive enzyme pepsin in combination with betaine hydrochloride . Betaine HCL consists of 76% betaine bound to 24% hydrochloric acid (hydrochloride).
The digestive enzyme pepsin
Pepsin is a digestive enzyme (a so-called endopeptidase) found in the stomach and responsible for breaking down proteins ingested through food. Its job is to pre-digest the proteins in the food pulp in the stomach so that the intestines can process them more easily.
It is formed under the influence of stomach acid from an inactive precursor, pepsinogen. Pepsin is only active in a very acidic environment with a pH of 1.5 to 3. To promote digestion, the enzyme is added to certain foods (e.g., pepsin wine) or taken as a dietary supplement.
What role does betaine HCL play in digestion?
Betaine bound to hydrochloric acid (= betaine hydrochloride) is an acidic form of betaine that can contribute to optimal gastric acidity . In the stomach, betaine hydrochloride separates into betaine and hydrochloric acid, causing the latter to increase gastric acidity. In this way, it can also have a beneficial effect on the activity of pepsin.
Betaine is a lipotropic (fat-attracting) substance , like methionine, choline, and inositol. It is produced in the body as a breakdown product of choline and has the ability to break down homocysteine . This is beneficial because high homocysteine levels affect the blood vessels and thus play a role in the development of cardiovascular disease.
