Betaine hydrochloride (Betaine HCL) is an acidic form of betaine, a vitamin-like substance found in grains and other foods. Betaine HCL is a supplemental source of hydrochloric acid for people who don't make enough on their own.

The acidic environment in the stomach helps to break down dietary fats and protein for better assimilation of the smaller nutritional components in the body—proteins into peptides and amino acids, fats into fatty acids.

Hydrochloric acid (HCL) helps in the digestion of fats and proteins. As we get older, the stomach’s ability to secrete HCL weakens. Lowered acidity in the stomach is a leading cause of digestive complaints. Insufficient acidity leaves undigested food particles to rot, disallowing vital nutrients to be absorbed. It also creates an environment more prone to support the proliferation of potentially harmful microorganisms.*

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the capsule size?
A: Capsule size 1.

Q: What type of capsule does this product come in?
A: This comes in a gelatin capsule. The gelatin is derived from bovine hide (beef skin).

Q: Is your betaine derived from beets?
A: No. We use a chemically pure form of betaine synthetically derived from chloroacetic acid and trimethylamine.

Q: This product smells bad. Did it expire?
A: Betaine HCL has a natural fish-like smell. To keep our products as pure as possible, we don't add any manufacturing agents to mask the smell. The product is safe to take even though it may smell rancid.

Q: There was no cotton buffer inside the bottle when I opened it. Is this product defective?
A: We have found that adding the cotton ball to betaine products causes the capsules to stick and clump together. To avoid this problem we do not add cotton to our betaine capsules.

Why Choose Us? With over three decades of unparalleled experience in the health and wellness industry, Dr. Clark Store stands out as a beacon of trust and quality. Unlike others, we are the actual manufacturers who take pride in our craft, overseeing the entire production process to ensure that each bottle meets our high standards. With more than 31 years of expertise and over 10 million bottles produced, you can rest assured that you're choosing a partner dedicated to authentic wellness. We don’t outsource to the lowest bidder.

Guaranteed Authenticity: Every batch of Betaine HCL is carefully sourced and undergoes rigorous testing for ID, purity, potency, and microbiology before, during, and after manufacturing.

Just Pure Ingredients: At Dr. Clark Store, we stand against adulteration. Our rigorous testing reveals that an estimated 30% of bulk supplement powders in the U.S. market contain added fillers and/or come from incorrect species or plant parts. Unlike importers who operate according to FDA 21 CFR 117 and often rely on analyses done by the manufacturer abroad, we conduct thorough tests on all incoming materials in our full-size laboratory, guaranteeing the integrity of our products.

Carrageenan and Surfactant-Free Capsules: FDA regulation 21 CFR 101.100(a)(3)(ii) allows manufacturers to avoid disclosing ingredients in food if present at “insignificant” levels. This is why "Veggie Capsules" may contain carrageenan. Dr. Clark Store ensures the use of only the finest BSE-free gelatin capsules, free from carrageenan, surfactants, and prion risks. Our dedication to purity dates back over 30 years, ensuring safety and quality in line with Dr. Hulda Clark's original vision.

No Magnesium Stearate and No Hidden Processing Aids: True to Dr. Clark's vision, we never use magnesium stearate or any toxic processing aids in our products. Our commitment to transparency means all ingredients are clearly declared on the label, offering you peace of mind and a product you can trust. Again because of FDA’s lacking regulation 21 CFR 101, many brands contain magnesium stearate without it being declared on the label.

Verifiable GMP Certification: Trust is earned, not given. That's why we back up our GMP certification claims with verifiable evidence. Partnering with VeriGMP®, a UL-certified company, we adhere to strict GMP quality systems, ensuring that each product meets the highest standards of manufacturing and quality assurance.

Choose Dr. Clark Store for your digestive aid supplement needs and experience the purity and authenticity that only comes from a legacy of passion and excellence in natural wellness.
