Betaine HCL is a non-essential nutrient (http://www.herbsmd.com/detail/betaine-hydrochloride-26764.htm) and a source of hydrochloric acid-a naturally occurring chemical in the stomach that breaks down fats and proteins. It is necessary for the metabolizing (absorption) of protein, calcium, vitamin B12, and iron.It is also called hydrochloric and stomach acids. The low PH of the stomach’s hydrochloric acid allows it to digest any bacteria and micro-organisms that might have been ingested.
