What is HCl?
- HCl=Hydrochloric Acid; found in our stomach
- HCl is THE most important supplement that is available
- It is like the footer is to the foundation of a house to our bodies
- It is necessary to break down protein and sterilize the contents of the stomach
Why do I need HCl?
- If levels are too low also cannot absorb nutrients and minerals
- HCl makes a 600% difference in absorption of B12 and B9
- Belching, farting, gas, bloating, food in poop, skin rashes and vertical ridges in the nails are NOT normal and are caused by low HCl
- Sleep is impaired because of low mineral absorption
- Asthma, allergies, arthritis, Alzheimer’s will all improve with proper HCl levels
- Stress ramps down HCl, age ramps down HCl by 1% every year
- Constipation, anal itching, leg and foot cramps and low muscle mass are caused by low HCl
- High HCl is very rare; Acid reflux is actually low HCl NOT high HCl
- Don’t waste your time and money on other supplements till you do the HCl test and take the appropriate dose
How do I do the test?
- A Digestive enzyme from your practitioner is optimal for you to perform the test
- Eat half of a high protein meal
- Take one capsule of 200 mg HCl
- Eat other half of protein, rest of meal
- Wait for 15 minutes, observe reaction (burning sensation in stomach or extremities)
- If NO reaction, go up one capsule per meal at each subsequential meal
- Stop at reaction
- Go down one capsule if getting reaction
- Glass of water will dilute reaction
- STOP at SEVEN pills
- Go down one capsule when you get reaction
• On average for Americans it takes 5 years to get levels back to normal
