A primary function of hydrochloric acid is to activate pepsinogen to pepsin, beginning the digestion of proteins. Less hydrochloric acid may compromise the ability to break down proteins into amino acids, or lead to an elevated pH, affecting the digestive process and potentially causing discomfort. HCL supports the activation of the digestive system to maintain healthy stomach acidity, gastric function, and protein digestion.\u003csup\u003e†\u003c\/sup\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"loomis-item-description-list\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBetaine hydrochloride (betaine HCl) combines the amino acid betaine with hydrochloric acid, which may be used by the stomach to produce pepsin\u003csup\u003e†\u003c\/sup\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for vegetarian use with fungal pepsin\u003csup\u003e†\u003c\/sup\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComprehensive enzyme blend with three sources of lipase for fat digestion, three sources of protease for protein digestion, and multiple carbohydrases for carbohydrate and fiber digestion\u003csup\u003e†\u003c\/sup\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMany people notice symptoms of low stomach acid as:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003efeeling overly full after small meals\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eheaviness after meat\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003ebloating after eating\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eundigested food in stool\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003ebelching\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003efatigue after meals\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFunctionally, low stomach acid can also affect the signaling to the gallbladder and pancreas.
