NSI Betaine HCl with Pepsin -- 650 mg - 250 Capsules

NSI Betaine HCl with Pepsin -- 650 mg - 250 Capsules

NSI® Betaine HCl with Pepsin 650 mg offers natural support for digestive function. How does NSI® Betaine HCl with Pepsin 650 mg work? The acidifying factor Betaine HCl, when combined with the proteolytic enzyme Pepsin, produces a powerful digestive aide. It supports the normal digestive function of the stomach and enhances the efficiency of nutrient absorption from the foods we eat. In the stomach, hydrochloric acid converts pepsinogen to pepsin, an enzyme that breaks down proteins into smaller substances that may be more easily absorbed by the body. Environmental stress, eating too quickly and natural aging can all impact the body’s ability to properly digest the food we eat. Digestive problems surface when the body does not produce enough stomach acid. When food stays in the stomach too long, it can cause a variety of digestive woes including heart burn, acid reflux, gas and bloating. NSI® Betaine HCl with Pepsin may be used at meal times to support the acid needs of digestion. Betaine Hydrochloride is used as a supplemental source of hydrochloric acid. Combined with pepsin, this formula may support the stomach’s digestive capacity. NSI® Beaine HCl with Pepsin is better because it:. -- Supports healthy digestion. -- May optimize digestive efficiency. -- Is a better value when compared to other brands.  . Did You Know? All NSI supplements are packaged in HDPE (High Density Polyethylene) bottles. These bottles keep moisture vapor out, protecting the freshness and integrity of their contents, and are 400% more effective compared other brands currently using PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) bottles. HDPE bottles do not break as glass can and are also recyclable so we urge you to please recycle them.

"I heard that sometimes medicines like Prevacid can block nutrients from being absorbed into the bloodstream, so I'm trying this supplement. I'm not sure how I will know if it is working, but I thought it was worth a try. The price seems like a very good value."
