Xymogen's GastrAcid provides a variety of health-supportive factors. It contains glutamic acid HCl, betaine HCl, and pepsin, which can assist in protein digestion. It also contains gentian root, an herbal bitter, which can promote normal secretion of saliva and gastric acid for digestive support. HCl (hydrochloric acid) supports nutrient absorption and helps maintain a healthy gastric pH, which, in turn, supports healthy gastric ecology.

Here are some of the potential benefits of GastrAcid:

• Provides hydrochloric acid to help maintain gastric pH. Gastric acid is important for breaking down food and absorbing nutrients. GastrAcid can help to maintain a healthy gastric pH, which can help with digestion and nutrient absorption.
• Contains factors to promote healthy digestion, especially of dietary protein. GastrAcid contains ingredients that can help with protein digestion, such as glutamic acid HCl, betaine HCl, and pepsin. This can be helpful for people who have difficulty digesting protein, such as those with lactose intolerance or gluten intolerance.
• Supports absorption of certain macro- and micronutrients. GastrAcid can help to improve the absorption of certain macro- and micronutrients, such as iron, vitamin B12, and calcium. This is because hydrochloric acid is needed to break down these nutrients so that they can be absorbed by the body.
• Helps maintain normal gastric flora. The stomach is home to a healthy balance of bacteria, known as the gastric flora. GastrAcid can help to maintain this balance, which can help to prevent stomach infections and other digestive problems.
