Betaine is trimethylglycine, a normal metabolite and a methyl donor. In the protonated form, betaine HCl gives up a proton and chloride ion in aqueous solutions, that is, hydrochloric acid. Therefore, betaine hydrochloride represents a dietary source of hydrochloric acid. Like betaine HCI, glutamic acid HCL represents a supplemental form of gastric acid. Gastric cells require chloride as the raw material for hydrochloric acid production. Excreted chloride ion is reabsorbed by the intestine after a meal, causing a temporary, postprandial rise in serum chloride levels. Chloride represents a major anion electrolyte required to maintain optimal pH, and to maintain osmotic balance in the body. Vitamin B6. The absorption of pyridoxal phosphate is positively influenced by gastric acid secretion. Vitamin B6 deficiency is linked to deficiencies of trace minerals. Pancreatin is a commercial preparation of porcine pancreas, highly enriched in pancreatic enzymes, including trypsin, chymotrypsin, carboxypeptidase, as well as amylase (starch digestion) and lipase (fat digestion). Porcine pancreatin contains these enzymes in a ratio similar to human pancreas, and the digestive enzymes of human and porcine pancreas possess similar properties. Pancreatic enzymes can be denatured by exposure to gastric acid, therefore, the pancreatin in Hydro-Zyme™ is coated to preserve activity during transit through the gastrointestinal tract. A note on pancreatin activity measurement; measurement of proteolytic activity of pancreatin has been defined by the U.S. Pharmacopoeia, based upon the digestion of a standard protein, casein. Pancreatin 4X possesses 4 times the activity of pancreatin 1X (25 USP units of proteolytic activity per milligram). Therefore, 10 mg of pancreatin 4X per tablet of Hydro-Zyme™ provides 1,000 USP units.
