Betaine HCL

Does anyone here utilize this? If so how much?

Last time I used it, I definitely noticed it helped my digestion but eventually it seems like it became too much, because I ended up giving myself serious GERD (likely from too much stomach acid) and ended up with hiccups that lasted for days!

Just trying to optimize things a bit as far as digestion again, and wanting to add it in but avoid issues. Likely going to add l glutamine in as well.

If i start to notice recurring heartburn i’ll take a cap with my next meal, if it helps the symptoms then i needed it. If not i don’t continue with it. Also made sure to take it with protein thats not easily digestible like meat. Think the caps are 600mg

Sounds good, I’ll probably go by feel then with it rather than trying to do any type of schedule. I think that’s where I fucked up last time…

If it makes you feel heartburn/gerd symptoms you def don’t need it. It’s strong shit. Doctors best makes a good enzyme blend. Also been liking pancreatin 4x from vitacost and bromelain from swanson

i usually use it with high protein meals where the source is read meat.
