In Ultra-Gest™, we provide two forms of hydrochloric acid, Betaine HCL and Glutamic HCL. Glutamic HCL has been reported to be gentler on the stomach. Betaine or ‘Trimethylglycine’ acts not only as a carrier for hydrochloric acid, but also as a methyl donor for important liver detoxification pathways. Pepsin is the active portion of Pepsinogen. Pepsin acts as the active protein digesting enzyme in the stomach. The HCL in Ultra-Gest™ acts to enhance conversion of endogenous inactive Pepsinogen to active Pepsin. Ammonium Chloride, Gentiana lutea and Artemesia annua act to enhance endogenous HCL production.
