Description

Viridian Betaine HCl 650mg with Gentian is a targeted digestive support supplement designed to assist those with low stomach acid production. Adequate gastric acid is essential for protein breakdown, absorption of minerals such as calcium, iron, and zinc, and prevention of bacterial overgrowth in the upper digestive tract. Age, stress, and dietary factors can reduce stomach acid levels, leading to bloating, heaviness after meals, and poor nutrient absorption.

Betaine hydrochloride temporarily lowers stomach pH when taken with meals, mimicking the effect of adequate gastric acid secretion. This supports the activation of pepsin — the key digestive enzyme for protein breakdown — and ensures nutrients are properly liberated for absorption downstream.

Gentian root, one of the most bitter herbs in herbal medicine, further stimulates digestive function through bitter taste receptors in the mouth and stomach. Used for centuries as a digestive tonic, gentian promotes secretion of digestive juices and stimulates gastric motility for proper digestive transit.

Together, betaine HCl and gentian provide a comprehensive approach to supporting digestive efficiency before and during meals. Particularly suited for those experiencing regular post-meal discomfort, those with a history of PPI use, or those following high-protein diets. Free from artificial additives, certified Kosher, and suitable for vegans and vegetarians.

Not recommended for those with active gastric ulcers or gastritis. Start with one capsule per main meal and adjust as needed, or follow healthcare professional advice.
