Thorne - Betaine HCL & Pepsin, 225 Capsules

Thorne's Betaine HCl and Pepsin is a digestive aid for people who want extra support for digestion at mealtimes. Each capsule combines 500 mg of betaine hydrochloride with 23.5 mg of pepsin, the protein-digesting enzyme. Thorne's pepsin is pure and undiluted, from a porcine source, and lactose-free, and the capsule is hypromellose with L-leucine and silicon dioxide, nothing else.

It is taken with meals, for occasional rather than long-term daily use; see the use directions. The 225-capsule bottle is the economy size, which suits anyone who uses it regularly. Because the pepsin is porcine, it is not suitable for vegetarians.

• 225 capsules
• 500 mg betaine HCl, 23.5 mg pepsin per capsule
• Porcine pepsin; lactose-free

Thorne offers hydrochloric acid and pure pepsin. Unlike many supplement companies, the pepsin utilized in Thorne’s product is pure, undiluted, and lactose-free. Thorne’s pure pancreatin is also lactose-free and has the highest potency and purity possible. These elements are combined in one formula, B.P.P., to help aid in overall digestion. Individuals who may be low in hydrochloric acid production and have malabsorption of protein, carbohydrates, and fats should consider B.P.P.
