Additional Information
Support:
Apple pectin provides nutritional support for healthy digestive function and overall well-being. This natural fibre has numerous health benefits, including the ability to serve as an effective prebiotic.
Apple Pectin may also aid healthy cholesterol levels by binding with the cholesterol in the gut, thereby preventing its absorption into the blood stream.
Apple Pectin also slows down the activity of enzymes that break down starches and sugar. Thus the absorption of carbohydrates and sugars is slowed down, preventing blood sugar spikes which may lead to weight gain and diabetes.

Buy productWhat is Betaine HCl?
648 mg Vegetarian Formula. NOW® Betaine HCl is formulated to support proper digestive conditions in the stomach. Hydrochloric acid (HCl) is normally produced in the stomach, where it assists protein digestion by activating pepsin, helps to maintain a healthy balance of gut flora, and stimulates the release of intestinal enzymes. Pepsin is a protease produced in the stomach that partially breaks down proteins in foods. HCl production tends to decline with age, so supplementing with HCl and pepsin may help to maintain normal digestive function. This product uses a vegetarian acid-stable protease with activity equivalent to that of animal-derived pepsin. Natural colour variation may occur in this product -
