SFD Betaine HCL + Pepsin – Betaine + Pepsin

Betaine is an amino acid – also known as trimethylglycine (TMG). It is a derivative of glycine, the simplest protein amino acid. TMG was first isolated in the 19th century from sugar beets (Beta vulgaris – Beta is the Latin generic name for beets). Hence the colloquial name betaine, which over time began to be used to describe a whole class of compounds of this type, and TMG itself is distinguished as glycine betaine.

Function and appearance of betaine:

Its most important task is to help maintain normal homocysteine metabolism. The beneficial effect occurs with the consumption of 1.5 g of betaine per day.

TMG (betaine anhydrous) can be produced in the human body in limited quantities, but to replenish its supply, it is good to choose the right products. Rich sources of trimethylglycine are mainly goji berries, bran and wheat germ, raw and canned beets, spinach, as well as seafood - shrimp and mussels.

Pepsin and its role:

Pepsin – the active form of pepsinogen, an enzyme secreted by glandular cells (chief cells) of the stomach. Pepsin is a component of gastric juice. Pepsinogen is converted to pepsin by the acidic content of gastric juice.

Directions for use: Take 1 tablet daily.
