GastrAcid 180 Vegetable Capsules

The efficient digestion of food in your stomach is crucial in order to produce the protein and other nutrients that your body needs readily available. Unfortunately, the digestive capacity of your stomach slowly declines with age. Hydrochloric acid—which is needed to break down proteins and nutrients, as well as maintain healthy populations of gut bacteria—begins to decline as you get older; after age 60, the decline is especially steep. Pepsin, another stomach enzyme which helps break down proteins, also declines with age.

Xymogen’s GastrAcid has been formulated to supplement levels of important gastric secretions, which leads to more effective digestion. Improved digestion can help your body better absorb nutrients, which may lead to better health and a stronger immune system. An acidic stomach environment also helps promote the growth of beneficial intestinal bacteria that assist in the digestion of food. GastrAcid contains several ingredients that help support your digestive health, such as:

• Glutamic acid hydrochloride, also known as glutamate, is an amino acid that helps promote an acidic environment in your stomach.
• Betaine hydrochloride, which improves your stomach’s ability to digest fat; it’s able to lower the pH of your stomach, which helps digestion; it’s naturally found in foods like grains and spinach.
• Pepsin, which is an enzyme that is involved in the digestion of proteins; taking GastrAcid increases your pepsin levels, and also prompts your body to create more natural stores of pepsin.
• Gentian root, which is an herb that has been used to aid digestion for centuries; it can increase saliva production while stimulating the secretion of hydrochloric acid and digestive juices in the stomach and pancreas, respectively.

A 180-capsule bottle of GastrAcid provides a three-month supply at the recommended dose of one capsule daily.
