I think i have low stomach acid levels because the food i eat isn't being digested too good.. Betaine HCl helps the stomach create more acid and wondering if anyone has had any experiences with it?

I've tried it once when I was bodybuilding, helps protein absorption. Didn't use it consistently to really make a valid statement though...

Yes! It completely cured me of GERD.
During the time I was cleared, I was taking about 3g of hcl per day. That wasn't the actual cure, but it helped me adapt to the high protein diet smile.gif

That wouldn't have made your acne worse... It wont make it better either though!
The low carb / paleolithic diet cures acne and the hcl helps you adapt to it.

thanks. i was taking apple cider vinegar which cleared me up and stopped the cider when i started the hcl cuz i thought the hcl would be as effective with helping kill candida.

I take it but it doesn't help at all. One of those fad vitamins...
