I take it as the last supplement in the evening when finishing dinner. It provides the necessary digestive support that prevents heartburn and acid reflux. The reason I wait to take it until the end of my meal is so that my own stomach acid can have a chance to work before the HCI kicks in. Most doctors will try to push a prescription pill on you to reduce stomach acid if you suffer from heartburn and/or acid reflux. However, the problem (for most of us) is not that we have too much stomach acid, but that we don't have enough. As we get older, we produce less stomach acid, and that reduces our ability to digest our food as nature intended. When we don't digest our food, it cause indigestion, heartburn and acid reflux. I take HCI with dinner, but you may find that you need it with other meals as well. During the 15 to 20 years I've been taking HCI with pepsin, I have not had heartburn more than 5 or 6 times. It is usually difficult to tell if a supplement is actually doing anything for you, but it doesn't take long to see that Betaine HCI with pepsin works. This is one supplement I would not be without. Review: Best supplement ever - Best supplement for stomach. For heartburn, it's gone in half hour everytime. Totally helps your stomach.

Serving size is not clear** A: I have used this product for years and use one capsul for a lite meal and 2 for say a steak. Even with a big meal the 2 capsul does the trick. Realize your age and matabolism are a factor. I'm just short of 78 now and in excellent condition. I never have to wait 3 or 4 hours to digest any more. I count capsules not mg. **Q: What are the active and inactive ingredients listed on the label?** A: Go to the following website: http://www.iherb.com/Country-Life-Gluten-Free-Betaine-Hydrochloride-with-Pepsin-600-mg-250-Tablets/1657. All the information you asked for (and more) is listed there. **Q: Does this help with meals without protein? I've only read that acid helps with protein digestion. What about carbs and fats?** A: Yes, it's true that the acid (HCl) is what breaks down proteins. Digestion of fats and carbs (breads, fruits, veggies, etc.) begins with the chewing process in the mouth; amylase (an enzyme) is released, although its activity is slight in comparison with that of amylase released when the chyme (digested food exiting the stomach) is passed on to the small intestine. It is here that bile emulsifies the fat to prepare it for being broken down by the enzyme lipase. Another function of the stomach acid is as a determiner of when to release the chyme into the small intestine. Once the HCl reaches a certain level (lower than when the digestion process started), the chyme is released. IF there isn't enough HCl to begin with, the chyme will be released before the acid has finished it's job in the stomach. I've found that by taking these pills (4 for full meals, 3 for snacks), I'm staying full longer. (I'm a thin person who has been skinny all my life despite my love of food!) I have only been on this routine for 4 months, but I'm hoping that I'm pulling more nutrients out of my food now that it's staying in my stomach longer and being properly digested!I do take 3 pills for snacks and make sure to include at least a little protein (nuts, hard boiled eggs, cheese, etc.). I want to make sure my body is able to get stronger.I read that you'll know if you are taking too many by the heartburn/burping. One meal I tried upping my dose to 5 pills; I had non-stop burping for the next 90 min. (Of course, I did this at a restaurant and had no antacid to counteract my mistake!) I've not had any similar issues taking 4 pills. **Q: what is the Source of the Betaine Hydrochloride?** A: Betaine Hydrochloride is a chemical compound that helps support digestion in the stomach by providing a source of hydrochloric acid. From a leader in Betaine HCL supplements, Country Life's Betaine HCL provides the digestive enzymes Pepsin, Papain, and Bromelain for additional digestive support. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Aids digestion and prevents heartburn *by S***Y on January 16, 2017* I have been using this Betaine HCI with pepsin for 15 to 20 years since I first read about it in an alternative medicine newsletter.

I have been sick for months now with horrible acid reflux, sore throat, not able to sleep, afraid to lie down at night, afraid of losing my vocal chords... feeling tired all the time... and now... just one week after purchase... and swallowing one of these before I eat anything... I'm a BRAND NEW PERSON! I've been suffering with this for so long now.... on and off for years... and I'm SOOO PISSED OFF that my doctor didn't recommend this. How horrible is THAT!?!?!? I had to read about it from an online poster and take the chance of buying a product I know nothing about in the hopes it didn't make me worse... and in the end... this little bottle of pills has SAVED MY LIFE! In every sense of the word. THANK YOU COUNTRY LIFE!!! Just for other readers that might be suffering like me... I am also taking very strong DIGESTIVE ENZYMES PAN 10x and I'm also taking NAC - and I'm eating chewable DGL and at night before bed I always put a teaspoon of slippery elm into hot water to make a tea and add raw honey to it and I'm using that to coat my throat at night. With all of these products I have turned a horrible situation in my life around. I really thought I was finished! I saw myself getting throat cancer and losing my vocal chords... I cannot say enough good things about this product. I was really afraid to take it at first because it is acid and I thought I had too much acid... but as everyone else on the Internet claims, you need acid to fix the acid reflux... so I guess really, my acid was too low. I hope my good new found health continues. Good luck to any readers with the same issues. ## Frequently Bought Together - Country Life Betaine Hydrochloride with pepsin 600 mg - 250 Tablets - NOW Foods Supplements, Super Enzymes, Formulated with Bromelain, Ox Bile, Pancreatin and Papain,180 Capsules - Nutricost Betaine HCl + Pepsin 790mg, 240 Capsules - Gluten Free & Non-GMO --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.jp/products/7751520-betaine-hydrochloride-with-pepsin-600-mg-250-tablets](https://www.desertcart.jp/products/7751520-betaine-hydrochloride-with-pepsin-600-mg-250-tablets) --- *Product available on Desertcart Japan* *Store origin: JP* *Last updated: 2026-10-21*
