What Is Betaine HCL and Pepsin?

[@gentleoldmoviefan5680]

"How Do I Know If I Have Low Stomach Acid? - " question is answered, briefly, starting at 8:39 ~ It seems an easy test to try out. Excellent video and presentation. It was also helpful to learn best timing of when to take it, prior to eating, and other tips about when to take it .... and when not to bother.

Thank you for your support.

This year old video is good news for me. I take the Drs Best Betaine HCL, Pepsin combo, and it works for me. I also take a few digestive enzymes. I worry that sometimes the Drs Best may not be all that its cracked up to be because there was a lawsuit against them for not having what they claimed was in their capsules. So I might switch to another. I also take the Bicarbonate of soda drink if I start getting reflux in the night.

I did the baking soda test and didn't burp at all. I then tested to see if the baking soda was still good by adding a bit of regular vinegar to it and it fizzled. So that tells me I have to watch your videos. Thanks so much for this information.

I’d also add that if you’re missing a gallbladder, you absolutely should be taking these.

[@thejdocrealminute4648]

Good idea....

Great video doc. Got a question for you, although I know this maybe totally irrelevant to the topic of this video, but so anyway if I were to eat uncooked oatmeal, will that have way less of an impact on blood sugar in comparison to cooked oatmeal?

[@thejdocrealminute4648]

I do not know that specific answer, but I do know that microwaved instant oats do have a higher GI index than the type you have to cook slowly.

[@fadisalem2710]

@thejdocrealminute4648 okay thank you gotcha

[@AxelJuca]

It's okay take the pills at the end of the meal?

[@rock90000]

Should the amount of capsules taken with lunch be taken with breakfast if breakfast consists of 3 slices of cheese with tomatoes i take 3 capsules with lunch?

[@precator3]

How long do you have to take these pills before stomach acid generates without the pills?

[@ShaniDevi-c2k]

Will my symptoms come back if I stop taking it

[@raulbrito33]

Can I take Betaine HCL with Ox Bile? I know that Ox Bile is alcaline, so maybe it can make my diggestion worse because I have low stomach acid

[@thejdocrealminute4648]

Yes, you can take both.

[@MrGoofinaround]

@@thejdocrealminute4648 Can you take them both at the same time? I have a supplement that has both the HCL and ox bile in one capsule.

Can I take it in powder form instead of capsules because I find it difficult to swallow it?I found a betaine hydrochloride supplement in powder form from the same brand you recommend

[@mohannadali9662]

I bought it in powder form (yet to be delivered). Some scared me by saying it'll damage my throat and therefore that capsules are better. But despite that, many sell it in powder form just fine. And if powdered really caused damage then it would have been banned or illegal by now.

[@jasminevaughn5214]

What if you burp with everything can you just take this with all your food not just meat

[@moondrop3013]

I can’t recommend… this is the one I recommend.
