HCL Activator Plus (Gut health)
HCL Activator Plus (Gut health)
Formula Purposes & Benefits |
HCL Activator Plus is developed based on cutting-edge scientific research and expert formulation to support digestion of essential nutrients, optimal stomach pH, and balanced stomach acid levels in aging adults. Designed to assist the breakdown and absorption of food and reduce the age associated decline of stomach acid and digestive enzymes. Designed to work synergistically with Betaine HCL Plus, our HCL activator forms the ultimate support system for optimal digestion. HCL Activator Plus utilizes pepsin, an acid-tolerant enzyme that thrives in the acidic stomach environment, this powerful combination maximizes protein breakdown and supports overall digestion. For enhanced digestive support, consider our HCL Support Program, which combines Betaine HCL Plus and HCL Activator Plus.. Trust in this effective combination to promote optimal digestion and overall well-being Our formula is NON-GMO verified and is proudly made in the USA in an FDA registered facility, following Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) standards. Our commitment to excellence is reflected in the fact that only 1-4% of the supplements on the market can match our world-class standards. |
Formula Ingredient Deck |
Benefits Of Each Ingredient |
Betaine HCL |
● May support healthy digestion, protein metabolism, and balanced stomach acid levels in aging adults (370). ● May support reduced prevalence of obesity via improved gut microbiome activity (371). |
Organic Turmeric |
● May support antioxidant, cardio-protective, anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial, nephro-protective, hepato-protective, immunomodulatory, and anti-rheumatic effects (123). ● May reduce inflammation via decreases of inflammatory markers such as c-reactive protein, interleukin 6, tumor necrosis factor, and decreased cytokine production (123). ● May support joint health via decreases in connective tissue inflammation and improved pain in individuals with osteoarthritis (122). ● May support blood sugar regulation via increased pancreatic beta cell function and improved insulin sensitivity (121). ● May support cardiovascular and liver health via reduced accumulation of advanced glycation end products (AGE), reduced lipid peroxidation, and improved vascular function. ● Curcumin may exhibit an antioxidant activity via scavenging of superoxide anion (∙O2−∙) and hydroxyl radicals (∙OH) (scavenging of inflammation molecules) (118,119). ● Curcumin may modulate breast carcinogenesis through its effect on cell cycle and proliferation, apoptosis, senescence, cancer spread and angiogenesis (119). ● May target cancer growth pathways such as the NFkB, PI3K/Akt/mTOR, MAPK and JAK/STAT, and may suppress tumor growth (119). |
Organic Tomato |
● May support prostate health, cardiovascular support, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and chemoprotective properties against cancer (191,192, 193). ● May support healthy immune response via scavenging of free radicals and reduced oxidative damage of DNA. (191,192,193). ● May support immune health via carcinogen-metabolizing enzymes, apoptosis (cancer cell death), anti-proliferation, pro-differentiation, and anti-lipid peroxidation activities. (193). ● May support immune health via reduced phosphorylation of anti-oncogenes such as p53 and Rb. It also inhibits G0/G1 and S-phase of the cell cycle (193). |
Pepsin |
● May support healthy digestion of nutrients and improved levels of stomach acid (372). |
