This is a hydrochloric acid therapy product containing betaine hydrochloride, pepsin and ammonium chloride. As soon as this is put in a solution (the stomach), the betaine, which is a B factor, and the hydrochloric acid, separate. This makes hydrochloric acid available to the stomach - good for the people who cannot digest protein or absorb minerals. Betaine hydrochloride also contains pepsin, another proteolytic enzyme normally found in the stomach (see Zypan). Proteolytic means "protein-digesting." We also put ammonium chloride in betaine hydrochloride. This is an acidifying factor, supplying the chlorides which are deficient in people who have an over-alkaline GI tract. Ammonium chloride is helpful to people with alkalosis in the tissues, as in osteoarthritis the arthritis in which the person has calcium deposits. We have another product which contains even more ammonium chloride than betaine hydrochloride. It's called Calamo.
Hydrochloric acid is necessary to digest protein. Also, hydrochloric acid makes the chyme, the mass of food going into the duodenum, more acid. The more acid it is, the more the pancreas is stimulated to produce proteolytic enzymes - trypsin, lipase and amylase.
