Betaine Plus supplies 650 mg of Betaine HCl and 140 mg of Pepsin in each easy to swallow capsule. Betaine Hydrochloride and pepsin (from porcine) aid in the digestion of proteins and food in the stomach.
The breakdown of dietary protein begins in the stomach where gastric hydrochloric acid (HCl) assumes an
important role in protein digestion and other processes. Hydrochloric acid acts as a catalyst in the activation of
pepsin from pepsinogen. Active pepsin is a proteolytic enzyme which splits large protein molecules into
smaller polypeptides. Additionally, hydrochloric acid acts directly on dietary proteins by loosening up their
macromolecular structure (denaturing). Gastric hydrochloric acid also helps reduce poorly available trivalent
ferric iron into more soluble and absorbable divalent ferrous iron.
