Digestive Health Foundation
Why Stomach Acid Levels Matter

Stomach Acid May Decline With Age and Stress

Your stomach acid plays a critical role in healthy digestion. It helps loosen food structure, activates protein-digesting enzymes, stimulates proper valve function between the stomach and esophagus, and supports the body's natural defense against foodborne pathogens.†

As we age and experience stress, our body's natural stomach acid production may decrease. This can affect how well we digest protein, absorb certain minerals and vitamin B12, and maintain comfortable digestion.†

Important: Low stomach acid and excess stomach acid can sometimes cause similar symptoms. This product is not intended to diagnose or treat any digestive condition. Always consult your healthcare professional for proper evaluation.

Key Ingredient
Betaine Hydrochloride From Beetroot

Plant-Based Stomach Acid Support†

Betaine is a B-vitamin found in high concentration in beetroot

Betaine hydrochloride (HCl) releases hydrochloric acid in the stomach

Research suggests betaine HCl may help support stomach acidity levels†

Works to support the same type of acid your stomach produces naturally†

100% plant-based — contains NO pepsin (animal-derived enzyme)

May help support proper valve function between stomach and esophagus†

Full-Spectrum Formula
5-Enzyme Digestive Support Blend†

Protease 3.0 & 4.5 Protein Digestion

Plant-based protein-digesting enzymes that work at different pH levels to support protein breakdown throughout the digestive tract.†

Amylase Carbohydrate Support

May help support the breakdown of starches and complex carbohydrates into simpler sugars.†

Lipase Fat Breakdown

May help support the breakdown of dietary fats into fatty acids and glycerol for better nutrient utilization.†

Cellulase Fiber Support

Plant fiber-digesting enzyme that may help support the breakdown of cellulose from vegetables and plant foods.†

Enhanced Absorption Support
Full-Spectrum Trace Mineral Complex

Supporting Enzyme Function and Mineral Absorption†

HCL Breakthrough features a proprietary full-spectrum trace mineral complex. These minerals serve as cofactors for digestive enzymes and may help support the absorption of important nutrients including iron, calcium, magnesium, zinc, copper, and manganese.†

Adequate stomach acid levels are important for mineral absorption. Many people with suboptimal stomach acid may struggle to absorb these essential minerals even when taking supplements.†

What Our Customers Say

★★★★★ Incredibly life changing
Incredible! Had nausea, bloating, vomiting due to keto/carnivorous diet. Take 1 HCL Breakthrough with meals and I am feeling zero symptoms like before. Now I sleep great and don't wake up to any symptoms, especially acid reflux = gone!
Blair M. — Verified Buyer

★★★★★ Best money can buy
These have my digestion working as it's intended. I'm 37 years old and never knew my gut microbiome was demolished from years of antibiotics as a child. Now I truly know what my gut should have felt like for the first 36 years of my life.
Chad L. — Verified Buyer

★★★★★ So worth the try!
I ordered P3-OM, HCL, and MassZymes and began to address a problem I'd had for over 2 years. OMG!!! I can now leave the house after a meal and not be concerned with "consequences"! I heard about this product on a podcast I listen to. I'm so glad I gave it a try.

Got Questions?
Frequently Asked Questions

When should I take HCL Breakthrough? +
Take 1 capsule with meals or within 30 minutes of eating. This timing supports the body's natural digestive process. Start with 1 capsule and adjust based on your individual response and comfort level.†

Why doesn't HCL Breakthrough contain pepsin? +
Pepsin is only available from animal sources (pig or cow stomachs). We chose plant-based protease enzymes instead to make the formula suitable for vegetarians, vegans, and those with dietary restrictions. Plant-based proteases provide comprehensive protein digestion support without animal-derived ingredients.†

Can I take HCL Breakthrough with other BIOptimizers products? +
Yes, HCL Breakthrough is designed to work synergistically with other BIOptimizers products such as MassZymes, P3-OM, and Gluten Guardian. However, always consult your healthcare professional before combining supplements, especially if you're taking medications or have a medical condition.†

How do I know if I have low stomach acid? +
Common signs may include feeling heavy or bloated after meals (especially protein-rich meals), occasional indigestion, post-meal fatigue, or difficulty absorbing certain minerals like iron. However, these symptoms can have many causes. Always consult your healthcare professional for proper evaluation and diagnosis.†

Is HCL Breakthrough suitable for vegetarians and vegans? +
Yes, HCL Breakthrough is 100% plant-based and suitable for both vegetarians and vegans. It contains no animal-derived ingredients, including no pepsin.

Can I use HCL Breakthrough if I have acid reflux or heartburn? +
This product is NOT intended to treat acid reflux, heartburn, or GERD. While counterintuitive, some digestive discomfort can be related to low stomach acid rather than excess acid. However, only a healthcare professional can properly evaluate your individual situation. If you have active heartburn, acid reflux, ulcers, or gastritis, consult your healthcare professional before using this product.

Can children take HCL Breakthrough? +
HCL Breakthrough is not recommended for children. Always consult a healthcare professional before giving any supplement to children.

If you have any digestive condition, acid reflux, GERD, heartburn, or are taking medications, consult your healthcare professional before use.

This product is NOT a treatment for GERD, acid reflux, heartburn, or any digestive disease. If you have persistent digestive symptoms, consult your healthcare professional for proper medical evaluation and treatment.
