SOME STRONG SIGNS OF LOW STOMACH ACID
HCL does the following:
- Burping
- Bloating
- Constipation
- Undigested food in stool
- Acid reflux
- Heartburn
- Craving sweet or salty foods
- Feels like your meal is siting like a rock in your stomach
HCL does the following:
- Helps breakdown the protein you consume into usable amino acids and essential nitrogen needed for a pretty much every function in the body.
- Sterilizes your food as it enters the digestive system.
- Speeds the rate that food passes through your digestive system.
How to work out your Betaine HCL dose:Every person is different and it is a case of trial of error until you get it right.
So lets get your digestion fired up by doing the following:
Step 1. Eat a protein portion with every meal, preferably as much as fits in the palm of one hand. (Your own hand, not your partners!)
Step 2. Start by taking 1 pill of Betaine HCL during the beginning of the meal
Step 3. Finish the meal as normal and observe your stomach/abdomen for changes like: hotness, burning, heaviness.
Step 4. Stay at this dosage for another day and if you feel no changes take 2 pills with each meal the next day.
Step 5. Keep increasing the number of pills with each meal (making sure you have proteins) until you get a warm sensation in your tummy after the meal, or even a sense of discomfort.
Step 6. When this happens you will know your ideal Betaine HCL dosage is 1 pill less. e.g if you feel discomfort after 6 capsules then 5 pills is the proper dosage for you.
If you experience too much discomfort during this process you can mix 1/2 teaspoon of bicarbs of soda in some water. When you drink it your pain will subside. It is very common for people to stop short of their needed Betaine HCL dosage because they are nervous about taking 6 pills per meal, but there is nothing to worry about.
