Nutricost Betaine HCl Powder 500 Grams - Gluten Free, Non-GMO

It works! If you haven't used this before, be prepared for the weird acrid taste. Worth it.

Works great

Fortunately, I found this product when my previous HCl product was no longer available. The Nutricost Betaine HCl Powder provides much more thorough and complete digestion than I have experienced for years and alleviates the nasty symptoms of incomplete digestion! Yes, the flavor is quite "tangy" when mixed with water, but becomes totally tolerable in time. I always take after having eaten small serving of yogurt mixed with digestive enzymes--definitely works very well for me and I'm totally convinced that my nutritional status has greatly improved!!

Can't beat the price!!! I did notice that it is a grainy powder, not a floury type of powder... It seems to mix well so maybe that does not matter.... Curious why that is as I have only used a full on powder when it come to this stuff... Hope it works out..I may report back if I'm not happy with it...

While I have never tasted urine, this tastes like urine smells. Tried mixing it with my protein shake which is very strong, and this product ruined it. Disgusting!

Good quality and fast shipping

I'm definitely going to continue buying this. If you have problems with indigestion, gas, or bloating after a meal, this is a total need! I take the recommended 1 gram during or after a meal, and it helps with digestion, preventing bloating and other problems. The entire idea here is that betaine hydrochloride increases stomach acid output, and I can attest to that. It does so without negative effects. The only caveat is: Make sure that you have something to drink it with immediately (or mix it with liquid when consuming it), as this form is strong, and it will burn your tongue if you don't.

I'll have to get back concerning the effectiveness, but be forewarned.....it may be labeled as "unflavored," but trust me on this....it is...and it's not good. I have an extremely high tolerance, but this one is so bad that I might not be able to continue with it. I usually buy from Standard Process, but gave this one a try because of the size and economic advantages. If it ain't broke..... Edit: Well, I stopped using this since I discovered - for me anyway - that taking Pearls Prebiotic/Probiotic and Activia yogurt did a fantastic job of helping with my digestive issues. I really cannot offer any evidence on the efficacy of this product since I chose to discontinue use as the taste was so bad.

It's working wonders for me... Perhaps the fastest digestion I have ever experienced, I'm glad.
