Great for eliminating acid reflux!
Size: 240 Count (Pack of 2)
Acid reflux occurs, at least for me and everyone I know who has it, when you don't have enough acid. The stomach sends a signal to the esophagus valve to relax when stomach acid is low, allowing some of the acid to enter. Usage 1: Using the HCL increases the stomach acid so it will shut off the valve. This works much better than anti-acid and last much longer. However, as one gets older, stomach acid naturally gets reduced requiring more of this HCL supplement. I've been executing Usage 2 below for many years because of this. Usage 2: Taking PPI pills can take the stomach acid to near zero. In my opinion, the side effects of near zero are completely eliminated by taking a few of the HCL pills with meals. Larger meals means more pills (I limit mine to 4). I've been totally free from acid reflux for many years without side effects. ... show more

Improves digestion in Crohn’s disease
Size: 240 Count (Pack of 1)
Use 1 before meals n sometimes 1 after if needed. Digestion is improved for sure. Some say they take more as needed but 2 works for me. Works well with digesting meat. I have Crohn’s and would not go without Betaine HCL.

Over 60, with digestion issues? This works-
Size: 240 Count (Pack of 1)
It's a good product and good value. Most people over 60 no longer have enough stomach acid for good digestion. The pepsin is important too. NOTE: swallow the capsule right down, with water. Do NOT let it dissolve in your mouth-- it's stomach acid! I sleep better since taking 1 cap right after dinner. ... show more

Poor quality control but excellent product
Size: 240 Count (Pack of 1)
At least 2 capsules came open and several were disfigured, so there was a bunch of powder in the container. That's the worst I can say about it. If you're like me and was prescribed nexium or Prilosec over the years for stomach issues, then you might also be like me and had wound up having digestive problems including bloating, constipation, and the inability to digest foods that you'd eaten all your life. I came across an article that mentioned needing to take 3-4 of these a meal every day and tapering down for about 2 months. Well, here I am 2 months later and I might take 1 or 2 through the entire day. I rarely get bloated anymore unless I just eat too much. I can actually tell that I'm absorbing nutrients from my food now as I need to take less and less supplements. Unless you have ulcers, stomach acid is good for you. I can't believe I ever thought a doctor was right to tell me I had too much stomach acid. The naivety of 21 year old I guess. Though I need them less often, I've still purchased one more container to have on hand for those times I might overeat. Highly recommend! ... show more

Use with caution when starting out.
Size: 240 Count (Pack of 1)
If you have heartburn or GURD. This is the best cure for it. I take this at dinner and rarely get heartburn. Betain should always be taken with pepsin. Some do not do well with it and I recommend throughly researching it before you give it a try.

Too strong, a little weird
Size: 240 Count (Pack of 2)
I had been using the Thorne brand betaine HCL with enzymes for a long time, but it's been out of stock so I tried this. This is much cheaper, it's a similar formulation and it does work very well - in fact, too well, at least for me. One of these capsules will make me very sick to my stomach unless I take it with a really large high fat, high protein meal. I've been taking HCL for ~6 years for reflux, and it works very effectively to control it but I have to have the dose just right. This is too strong for me most of the time. I sometimes take 1 capsule of the Thorne brand with a regular meal and it's perfect, but 1 capsule of this stuff will make me really sick to my stomach unless I take it with a meal that's something like half a package of bacon scrambled into 5 eggs, a bunch of cheese, etc. I do that sometimes, but I don't do it often. I would only recommend these if you have really bad reflux symptoms, or regularly eat really large meals or have severely low stomach acid. A year ago this would have worked better for me, because my reflux was worse and I had to take 3 capsules of the Thorne HCL with every meal. Now I often go without, or just take 1. But 1 of these is usually way too strong and makes me sick. If I take too much of the Thorne I will have the same symptoms so that's why I say it's a dosage or strength issue. Another weird thing about this is that every time I put it in my mouth it makes me cough. It's like I inhale a tiny bit of the HCL and it irritates my lungs. Not a lot, just a little; just one cough. But I've taken a lot of supplements over the last 40 years and never experienced anything like this. I also noticed from the moment I opened the bottle that the capsules would leave kind of a sticky grit on my fingers. Both of these things happened every time I used it from when I first opened the bottle to when I finished it. I never saw a capsule that I could tell was broken or leaking. I have had plenty of experiences over the years of a capsule doing that but I generally never noticed until the bottom of the bottle and there would just be some powder there, and often I could identify the failed capsule. So I'm not sure if one of the capsules did leak or if this is just normal for the way they encapsulate the product. It seems clear that this powder is stickier than most and gets all over stuff, in any case. Amazon no longer carries the Thorne but I can get it directly from their website so I have gone back to that and have to use this on those rare occasions when I feel ravenous and eat a giant meal. ... show more

Good buy

Works well. I used to buy a more expensive brand and have noticed no difference in its effectiveness.
