Betaine HCL 650 mg & Pepsin 160 mgVitakruid
Betaine HCl with pepsin contains protein-splitting enzymes and acids that support digestion.
Natural source of body-own enzymes
The digestive system is a complex yet well-organised system. Everything we consume through food finds its way through an extensive digestive process. The first stop for our food is the stomach. The stomach produces hydrochloric acid and various enzymes necessary for the digestion of fats, carbohydrates, and proteins. The enzymes betaine HCL (hydrochloride) and pepsin (peptase) naturally occur in our bodies.

Thanks to the use of betaine, I can once again enjoy my food in moderation 🥘 without fearing stomach issues and bloating. It brings back a bit of quality of life 👍🏽
I've been using Vitakruid's Betaine HCL (with pepsin) for quite some time now. It takes a bit of trial and error to figure out how much you need, but I've gone from 3 tablets to 2 tablets, and occasionally I even take just 1 tablet a day. No more complaints. Wonderful!
Superior source of 650 mg betaine per tablet
Betaine hydrochloride (HCL) is the hydrochloride salt form of the enzyme betaine. Typically, the stomach produces hydrochloric acid itself as soon as fats or carbohydrates reach the stomach. Factors such as overconsumption of carbohydrates and fats, stress, and ageing reduce the production of hydrochloric acid in the stomach.
Ultimate synergistic formula
Supplementation with betaine HCL and pepsin acts as an extraordinarily powerful synergistic formula. A particularly close-knit team that enhances each other's effects. The body does not produce pepsin directly as an active enzyme. The parietal cells in the stomach produce pepsinogen, the precursor to pepsin. The hydrochloric acid (betaine HCL) in the stomach cavity then transforms pepsinogen into the active form pepsin. Only now can pepsin perform its function within our body. A lot of pepsinogen is lost in the conversion to pepsin. It is therefore extremely efficient to supplement the active forms of pepsin and betaine.
Addition of pepsin with high enzyme activity
When selecting a good enzyme, you should not necessarily focus on the dosage of an enzyme, but on the so-called enzyme activity. Vitakruid has added no less than 160 mg of pepsin to this combination with an extremely high enzyme activity of 1:3000. High activity is easy to recognise: the higher the second number, the more active the enzyme in the respective combination. The activity of an enzyme is not mentioned on many products. Vitakruid stands for transparency and therefore always states the enzyme activity on our labels!
Test kit
For when you are not entirely sure if Betaine HCL 650 is the product for you, a handy test kit has been developed. The test kit contains ten tablets with which you can easily check if Betaine HCL with pepsin is a suitable product for you! Take one tablet with 650 mg betaine HCL and 160 mg pepsin halfway through a protein- and fat-rich main meal. If the discomfort does not worsen, but rather decreases, then supplementation with betaine HCL may help.

How do you take it? With water, or should you suck or chew it?
On 03 april 2025 by Customer serviceThe tablets should be swallowed whole with water, preferably during meals. They are not intended to be sucked or chewed.
I am lacking bile salts as my gallbladder was removed 45 years ago. I constantly suffer from stomach issues and terribly sticky stools. What can help with this? Kind regards, Agnes
On 21 january 2025 by Customer serviceIt's difficult to say what will work. It's a matter of trying different things. In this case, I think the best approach would be to use lipase and/or probiotics.
Dear Sir/Madam, I have been experiencing a sensation of a lump in my throat for some time. My doctor suggests it might be due to acid reflux at night, which flows back and causes symptoms during the day. Could this product help with that, or is it more suited for individuals who experience symptoms after or during a meal? Because I don't have any symptoms then. Thank you in advance. Kind regards,
On 25 september 2024 by Customer serviceIt sounds like you're going through a challenging situation. Betaine HCL with Pepsin from Vitakruid is a supplement primarily used to support digestion, particularly the digestion of proteins. It can contribute to healthy stomach acid production and aid in food digestion, which can be especially beneficial for individuals who experience stomach discomfort during or after meals.
However, in your case, since you don't experience symptoms during or after meals, but rather at rest, it is less clear whether this supplement would be the right solution for you. Your symptoms seem to be caused by reflux, which is the backflow of stomach acid into the oesophagus, often associated with lying down or sleeping.
While Betaine HCL & Pepsin may help improve digestion, it is not a specific remedy for reflux.
Is the product vegan/vegetarian? Where does the pepsin come from?
On 23 june 2023 by Customer serviceThe pepsin is derived from pork, so the product is not vegan/vegetarian.
I recently purchased this product and the instructions mention taking 1 to 3 tablets with a meal. However, it's not entirely clear to me what this means. Is it 1 to 3 tablets spread over multiple meals, or should you take this amount with each meal, or is it 1 to 3 tablets with one meal per day? If it's the latter, which meal is preferred?
On 20 february 2023 by Customer serviceYou take 1 to 3 tablets with a protein and/or fat-rich meal, which for most people is dinner. Start by seeing how 1 tablet affects you; if you notice no change, you can increase to 2 tablets next time, and so on. If you'd like further advice, please contact one of our product specialists via chat, email, or phone.
