Smidge® HCl + Enzymes is a dietary supplement designed to support digestion with 400 mg betaine hydrochloride, 8 mg pepsin and 494 mg enzyme blend per serving of 2 capsules. The formula is designed for adults who want support for low stomach acid, bloating, gas, reflux-like discomfort or heavy digestion after high-protein and high-fat meals. Compared to pure enzyme supplements, this product combines both HCl and several digestive enzymes for broader support for the breakdown of proteins, fats and carbohydrates.

The product combines betaine HCl with pepsin, lipase, amylase, protease peptidase complex including DPP-IV, lactase and phytase. This composition is relevant for people who want a targeted supplement for stomach and intestinal health, especially with meals containing meat, dairy products, starch or fatty ingredients. A more complete breakdown of food can contribute to better nutrient absorption and less fermentation in the gut.

• Betaine hydrochloride can support a normal acidic environment in the stomach, which is important for the digestive process.
• Pepsin and protease peptidase complex contribute to the breakdown of proteins and peptides.
• Lipase supports the breakdown of fats, which is relevant for the absorption of fatty acids and fat-soluble vitamins.
• Amylase contributes to the breakdown of complex carbohydrates into simpler sugars.
• Lactase can be helpful when consuming dairy products in people who react to lactose.
• Phytase can help release minerals from plant foods and support nutrient absorption.

Smidge® HCl + Enzymes can be suitable in situations where digestion is often experienced as slow or demanding, for example after large dinners, at protein-rich meals, during a paleo, low-carb or GAPS-like diet, or when dairy products cause discomfort. In such contexts, many choose HCl and enzymes because insufficient breakdown of food can be associated with satiety, bloating or gas after meals.

Technically, each serving of 2 capsules contains 400 mg of betaine hydrochloride, 8 mg of pepsin and 494 mg of enzyme mixture. The enzyme mixture consists of lipase, amylase, protease peptidase complex including the DPP-IV enzyme, lactase and phytase. Other ingredients are cellulose and hydroxypropylmethylcellulose as capsule material. The formula is free of common allergens, GMOs and artificial additives, which gives a clear signal of quality for people who want a clean composition without unnecessary additives.
