kick it naturally I don't have a gall bladder . I have low stomach acid, what to do, to correct it> ?
I can't go shoving ACV because of Erosive Esophagus. That's like throwing fuel on the fire , burn !!!
To check out baking soda, test , I did that and once I took my first drink ( water & baking soda ), I burped,
I waited 20 minutes and after the first burp, nothing afterwards. Serious I need to correct this.
You know, your help is always appreciated and I forwards your website to families and friends or I texted them , your website address. I put every effort to give back through referrals aka text , the website.
I don’t have a Gall Bladder but I’m using Betaine HCL, is it safe for me to do so? Concerned about getting an ulcer.
Boss can you do a video on IBS with pain, paristatic pain issues in stomach
I’m wondering the same thing. Low stomach acid. No gallbladder.
Hey creator of this video. Do you realize you are repeating yourself several times in the 9 mins video? this video could have been 3 mins. Not subscribing.
Eat sauerkraut. My Grandmother lived to be 100 years old. She was a farmer and ate a lot of sauerkraut. Never saw her sick - not even a cold.
Stuff gives me severe flatulence.
I can’t eat this, bc it makes my SIBO worse
I have seen lots of these old people who lived for long and they claim they have been eating this and that, some even smoked yet lived long. So it is not necessarily about what they eat made them live longer, it could have been genetics or other reasons, the answer is we just don't know.
@@laviray5447 It's primarily diet and plenty of studies show that. There's always going to be anecdotes.
Sugar and processed food the answer.
My grand father lived 94 years, never had this issue, did farming entire life & ate all greens & organic meats. Something is definitely going wrong with food we buy in market today.
100% correct
Glyphosate pesticide poisioning
He didn’t eat carbs?
Yes in America I think they have the worst of the worst. Hell, even México yes México banned there gmo corn
Food isn't the whole story of our modern chronic illness. Lack of sunlight and too much artificial lights cause mitochondria dysfunction. Non-native EMF makes it even worse.
Life begins with sunlight, water and magnetism
How do we know exactly what is wrong with us? It’s all guessing. 🙏🏻 Thanks
HI @Shar, it really is if you don't understand how the body works. But if you can learn more, it makes figuring everything out a lot easier. If you don't have time to learn, you get help figuring it out. But my book that you can get for free in the description of this video will walk you through a lot of the steps to figure out a lot of things. It gets pretty fun.
So would you recommend the COURSE or the BOOK for best results? Also, I signed up for one of them, but started running into glitches with them, so I stopped watching. I’ll try again. Thanks!
They are both the same information. Just depends on which way you learn better. If you run into problems watching videos, it is likely a browser problem because our videos are hosted on Vimeo. If you keep having trouble, use the contact us button and send us a link of the page you're having trouble with and let us know exactly what is happening and we can help.
@@KickItNaturally oh they’re the same, lol! Either read or watch..got it👍🏻
Ok thank you!
Look forward to hearing how it goes. The book actually covers a lot more health and weight loss topics, but the main thoughts are covered in the course.
What if you don’t have a gallbladder?
Here is our video for those who have lost their gallbladder: ua-cam.com/video/jJ_30UK_G0E/v-deo.html
If low acid is reason for reflux, why oranges/coffee caused my reflux? And why do we need to avoid them later too since reflux seems wont cure that quickly?
Very informative! Can we take both betaine hcl and ox bile together or first betaine hcl and after sometime ox bile
Can you please share how much gap is required
Here is our video on adjusting ox bile dose and timing: ua-cam.com/video/4iuYpaiFT3Y/v-deo.html
First I had heartburn, then reflux .
To understand why that might happen when first starting HCL, listen to this podcast epsisode about troubles when first staring HCL. It's often a sign that a person really needs HCL: kickitnaturally.com/episode312/
I think it's coffee. My natural path Gabe me betaine. Along w sum other ingredients I have started it. I think maybe I should start w apple cider v8negar n take enzymes
Pls include people who don't have gall bladders and how what you're explaining applies to them.
Bile also comes from the liver. It's only a lot slower than a healthy gall bladder. But healthy gall bladders are becoming uncommon these days.
@@asit1 Years of eating all the stuff they're doing to our food
Supplement with Ox bile.
Well taking betaine hydrochloride has improved my acid reflux 🥰
For how long u r taking?
nice
Mine too
For those who want the point and not the verbal diarrhea so many of these content creators are addicted to:
Betaine HCL can be useful. But it must be balanced with bile flow from the gall bladder, otherwise it can cause other problems down the line. So you must ensure you have BOTH, not just one.
Timing is an important part of the issue.
Click the video link at the end to hear/see how he recommends this balance might be acquired.
Yes, these are the most crucial pieces of info in a lot of cases.
@@KickItNaturally how do you not register what this guy said? Please less verbal diarrhea, as he beautifully mentioned and ust give pure straightforward info.
@@tokemaryjj Simmer down partner! Both of you are completely overlooking the fact that most people have zero previous knowledge of the digestive process. The Presenter summarizes what is truly a much more complex process in a video that's under 10 minutes in an easy to understand and concise manner. Be grateful this information is being provided for free. Comments like yours are completely uncalled for and offer nothing meaningful or useful...to anyone.
I like their comments. I like the bottom line don’t criticize those who help me. I am a senior, and I don’t want to listen to a verbal sandwich because I feel compelled to listen to every word until the end and it’s exhausting.
Thank you so much! I wish everybody began with the outline like this and THEN does the more detailed explanation. I did what you suggested and hit the video link at the end. This dude is pretty good at explaining. Thanks for pointing out the video link. I subbed.
I didn't understand the point you are trying to make is Betaine HCL bad or good for you?
He also didn’t say what you are supposed to do to help with the neutralizing part. Doesn’t make sense.
This is the best explanation I’ve seen to date on how the digestive system works and where things break down. Thank you!!
I can't write English with a translator, can someone briefly summarize what they want to say? I take betaine hcl, what should I pay attention to?
@@bellumomnium7561 try different # of hcl pills with meat.
If you take 4 and your stomach hurts, take 3 with meat.
If you take 3 and your stomach hurts, take 2.
Take as little as possible to digest meat.
@@bellumomnium7561 In short, before you take Betaine HCL, you have to make sure your bile flow is smooth and the bile quality is good enough. Otherwise, the food going down from the stomach into the intestines will be too acidic without being neutralized by enough and good enough bile which is alkaline. God bless you.
@@bellumomnium7561 before you try to fix your low stomach acid with Betain HCL, you need to get your Bile to flow correctly (if that's a problem for you) If your Bile is too thick & sticky to flow correctly, or you don't have enough of it, additional Betain HCL can can create a lot of problems
@bellumomnium7561 I had my gall bladder removed but was diagnosed with Gerd it's like burping I have low stomach acid can I take betaine
I take ACV for low stomach acid to help with digestion. 🤷& Tudka to "help" with bile when eating a high fat meal. 🤷
So you kind of said what we need to do but not how to do it. Should we take betaine after eating then within 1 hour take bile salts to make bile for your small intestine? Well you didn't say anything about that. It's just clickbait and then an exhortation to watch another video. Very shady.
Or, as I explained in this video, there is no one solution that is going to work for every person. It's never going to happen. This video explains how to adjust the dose and timing, but if clicking over to another video is too much work or too much "click bait" are you really going to be willing to do the work to fix the problem naturally? ua-cam.com/video/4iuYpaiFT3Y/v-deo.html
@@KickItNaturally I’m doing the work, but not with your videos, too many words. You didn’t get to the point, and explain what it was that you were attempting to say originally. It’s not meant to be offensive, but it takes a lot of work to produce a video. you need to find a way to keep the viewer not push him away
Well, it's complicated, isn't it? Trial and error, experimentation. Apparently my family has bile acid malabsorption issues (no real test for this in the US)-manifests as diarrhea. I thought I had escaped it until I was in my 40s and thought I'd just gotten food poisoning. Very, very long story short...I have to take cholestyramine (a prescription bile acid binder)-that only helps some. Thru trial and error I also figured out that I have to take digestive enzymes and a pretty significant amount of Betaine HCl also. Once I got the dosage right on the Betaine HCL, my rolling/churning gut quieted down and I started digesting/absorbing food again. I've tried cutting down on the dosage-my poop quality just slowly starts going bad and we are back to diarrhea again.
HI @Elaine N, the body is complicated and you're at least doing a great job of paying attention to what is going on. But your best bet could be to go through our totally free digestion course because that will walk you through figuring out which aspects of digestion are not working correctly and what steps will help you the most.

Which enzymes helped n how much betaine hcl
In England we are only given something to suppress our stomach acid. 😢😢😢
That's pretty much the same all over the Earth. :)
@@KickItNaturally absolutely right sir
In US this is common too.. disturbing
Maybe apple cider vinegar before meals.
. YES ... should be every time you
eat anything , including snacks.
Takes some discipline.
Sorry to be gross, but you said in another video that all the cool kids were looking at their poop, so…
I tried a small amount of Himalayan salt & mineral drops in a glass of water last night before bed with a Cal/Mag/Zinc supplement (to support my bile production/flow?liver?) & vitamin D3.
In the morning, I had apple cider vinegar & vitamin C (ascorbic acid) just before a (late) breakfast sandwich & small salad. Anyway, I’d been having pale & loose stools, but today it was dark and more well-formed. I feel that your advice helped me target how to help myself. Now, I want to take your course and get your book.
Great Job @Margaret Rattenbury , yeah, the course or the book will walk you through how to figure out the steps that are right for you. For some folks, improvements often have some ups and downs to them at first, so you'll learn how to look at measurements as well to know if you're on track or not. Let us know how it goes.
Having knowledge of the bodies anatomy and digestive system encourages me to never eat a cheat meal again.
:)
The title indicates, "without doing this". Question: Without doing what? The video didn't include the step on how to get the body to neutralize the acid.
I was yelling at the screen the whole video for the same reason. He never said it. Scare tactic. clickbate i guess. All the other vids on this topic didn’t do that and were just as informative.
His videos are like a scheme for a get-rich-quick setup. Only its for acid reflux, and you have to watch 10 of the videos he plugged into this one video for you to realize that you still didn't get any good information to use. 😂
Beet flow/suppositories/enema. All you have to do is click on the next recommended video at the end.
Word.
is it better to take HCl betaine with or without pepsin
With. It turns you into a real nigga.

Same symptoms 😢
Hey Paula
I am suffering from the same issues
Did u tried HCl ?
@@MeeraGena i did but no improvement. I am now taking Swedish bitters. Early days though x
check into mold poisoning as well.
I tried taking apple cider vinegar and it burned me, does that mean I have to heal first before taking Hcl??
I had the same issue however I found apple cider capsules and can take them with no problem. I take an HCL as well during meals. Really helps….
Interesting. I have been working hard on trying to figure out my fat digestion problem. For most of the time, I thought that it was a liver problem, because I couldn't tolerate fat. The fatty meal would sit in the stomach for up to 10 hours. Digestive enzymes helped a bit, but hadn't resolved the problem. Of course, I thought that the stomach function is involved as well. Recently, I suspected more, that it was not making enough acid. And since it potentially didn't make enough acid, the bile production might have not been made to adequate amounts as well.
Having gone through the imaging of the abdominal area and the liver and biliary tree looking normal; and liver enzymes that still were not too high- I was not sure what to think. I was forced to pretty much avoid all fat for the most part. Having ruled out the pancreas's lipase for the most part, I thought that the liver might not make enough bile. I came across the video about the sphincter of Oddi. I massaged it for several minutes and it was like a light switch flipped right away. I started eating again- my fatty meals left the stomach in 2.5 hours at some point. My appetite returned. This made sense, the sphincter was closed, and was just sipping through tiny amount of bile. Since there was no bile, the stomach would not release food, so not to damage the tract. It would be released over the entire day. When the sphincter opened up, the stomach could release all of the contents now. Of course, the liver still felt strained after these fatty meals, but when I increase the artichoke leaf extract- this problem was pretty much gone. I kept massaging the sphincter every day, to make sure that it remained flexible and not in a spasm. But then I ate a bit too much fat, and the food sat in the stomach for 7 hours. I felt very fatigued. It was very disappointing after such success. I am guessing that the liver is still weak, in terms of providing adequate amounts of bile. But also, I may need to increase the stomach acid more, since I was low on iodine. I understand it is needed to make stomach acid.
Do you have any thoughts about this? I am thinking of getting some milk thistle.
This oddi issue seems to be more about low stomach acid. It doesn't open correctly because the food getting acidified is what should signal it to open. But trouble with fats is USUALLY more about poor bile flow. Milk thistle is great to help a liver, but doesn't really do anything to thin bile so it will flow correctly.
This video will show you how to thin the bile so it will flow correctly: ua-cam.com/video/mBdV6ZT9woQ/v-deo.html
It's really common when one side of digestion malfunctions, it will cause problems for the other side as well. Also, you would benefit from just going through our totally free digestion course to fully access what aspects of digestion need improvement and what steps will help you the most. that will vary from person to person. You can find that free course here: kickitnaturally.com/course
Let us know how it goes.
@@KickItNaturally Thanks Tony. I will give it a look. I am not sure if you describe this in the book, but are you aware of any tests to see if the liver is making enough bile? The only thing I am aware of it the bile salt(or acid) test that looks in the blood. Also, is there a way to tell if there isn't enough bile vs. poor bile flow? I think the symptoms would be the same.
Hi @ImperialBear, I don't know of any tests, but this video on 10 signs can give you a lot of indications:
ua-cam.com/video/iYs-yamzxx0/v-deo.html
and you can find 10-parameter urinalisys test strips on amazon and test your urine to see if you have bilirubin or urobilinogen on the dipstick. Either of those is a slam dunk for bile not flowing correctly. and I talk about that in my books and courses.
and you are right that either problem can cause the issue, but I can tell you that after working with thousands of clients and book readers and course takers, I've seen about 4 people who needed help producing more bile. All the rest saw improvement when working to thin the bile. So I'm quite convinced.
Be sure to check back in and let us know how it goes.
@@KickItNaturally Thanks, will do.

I have no gallbladder as of last year. I started taking digestive enzymes once daily with a meal. My problem is constipation. I quit taking the digestive enzymes and it has helped a little, but not enough - still constipated. I also have bloating, at times very uncomfortable and difficult to relieve. I am thinking that I most likely need Betaine HCL and should see if that helps.
Kefir 🥛
L reuteri probiotic for 3 months twice daily.
Did it worked
What if someone had there gallbladder removed? Can they take betaine HCL?
Yes. But ask doctor first before experimenting with your body 😂😂😂
I have had “silent” reflux for a period of time I’m not even sure. It then lead to periods of indigestion. After awhile, it would cause stomach pain with foods I normally ate. Didn’t even know it was reflux. Until in late March I had awful abdominal pain that didn’t really subside. My dr started me on omeprazole because I was getting reflux into my esophagus, back of my mouth and was spitting it out too. Ever since then, I’ve had repeated bouts of indigestion and nausea, early satiety, decreased appetite but not vomiting. Stools have been mostly normal. My reflux has gotten better but I’m worried about it slowing down my digestion or creating unnecessary gas/pains, indigestion due to too low stomach acid. I’ve been on omeprazole for 8 weeks and I want to get off of it, I’m worried about rebound hyperacidity so I’m tapering down slowly. This video was very helpful to better understand
Carbonated citrate magnesium supplement and bone broth. Kefir 🥛
@@thankyou4416did this heal reflux for you?
so what do you do if your gallbladder doesn't work and you also have low acid? Do you take the hcl and then bile salts? If so, is it best to take hcl with food and then wait 30 mins to take bile salts ? What is the best approach?
Im taking Zypan because my digestion is so messed up…possibly from my gallstones and fatty liver. Ip hope that Zypan will help my Hiatal Hernia too.
In your book you suggest to avoid taking starchy food with HCL. So what will be your recommendation to digest and create acidic stomach if you’re eating bread potato and protein together? Thank you
Just don't eat it that way.
🤣🤣 what the hell kind of question was that lol
Thank you for making this so easy to understand!
I had H. PYLORI that caused 2 bleeding ulcers. Not fun. And on the Betaine...i appreciate this video. I have the Betaine in my Amazon cart but i dont think i will get it now. Ive been passing a lot of gallstones and i had a scan recently that showed my bile ducts are dilated and possibly damaged and my liver is slightly enlarged. I have an appt with new GI doc next month bc the last 5 were incompetent. Anyways thank you for the video. Im going to hold off on buying it bc i believe something is going on with bile flow
Oh no! I hope this gi will help you figure out what’s going on and recover! Wishing you well❤
If you have liver issues look into Milk Thistle and Choline NAC and Dandelion. The best for that and possibly Tudca . The liver is one of the few organs that can repair itself with diatery changes eating healthy mostly plant based and reduce carbs and sugar and seed oils like vegetable oils and use extra virgin olive oil only .
If you had H Pylori I suggest you get a SIBO breath test too as it could be another hidden culprit mistaken often for IBS
Okay, so my gallbladder was taken out years ago. I have horrible acid reflux. I do use ACV every morning.
What do I do now with no gallbladder? I just bought some Betaine HCL.
I just starting taking betaine HCL also and have no gallbladder, are we not supposed to take if we have no GB ?
Thank you for your common sense approach to these troubles that doctors rarely have an explanation for! 👍👍👍❤❤❤
You are so welcome!
Can we use both Betaine hcl and Ox Bile at same time ?
In case you miss this on the other comment: ua-cam.com/video/6EhZiBE2SBc/v-deo.html
I always supplement Beatine HCL along with TUDCA and I see no signs (explained in the other video) about bile flow issue
And on 2 meals of 4 I use digestive herbs that increase (alos) bile flow
Which herbs do you use for bile flow?
Sounds like he is saying NEUTRALIZE FIRST???
Sure. I think.
You are absolutely right I believe about the bile flow issues causing ibs
You are not the first person to feel this way. :) Hope it helps.
can you explain more?
So how do normalize the bike flow???
I don’t have loose stools and I have been taking Betaine HCL with pepsin for a month now. I have low stomach acid. Things we’re going well then suddenly the acid reflux started back again. The reflux has been going on now for 5 days straight and I’m still on the Betain HCL. I only get some relief from aloe Vera juice, buttermilk and kimchi. I can’t figure out what’s going on
Get your enzemes tested...pancreas...liver...kidneys..blood work......u must demand the blood work..average cbc etc doesn't pick up problems..gastro doctor endoscopy with tiny capsule shows some areas up on his computer..
so How would you know if you had a misleading normal stool?
If there are other digestive symptoms showing up or other signs of poor nutrient assimilation, that could be a sign.
@KickItNaturally thanks I ordered hcl and now something for bacteria... been on omeprazole for a month and it doesn't work at all. Did a baking soda drink test and didn't burp at all. You are very helpful.
@KickItNaturally I have silent reflux (tight throat, sensation of something in throat, clearing and constant small burps)
Thank you for explaining this in more detail since the other channels promote using this without any warnings. Love your channel, keep the videos coming.

How are we supposed to trigger liver to produce bile if stomach have enough acid? I thought having enough acid stomach can trigger liver to produce bile, even used by HCL supplement. Im confused
Most people actually produce enough bile. It has just become too thick and sticky to flow correctly. Here is a video that lists things that can thicken up the bile: ua-cam.com/video/PjL-0HYGLYQ/v-deo.html

Hello, I really appreciate your Contant and have watched several videos now. Are used to take a lot of HCL and OX BILE to help with my digestive issues. However, I think the underlying issue of the sludge in my bile not flowing properly has been the core issue. I stick to a fairly strict ketogenic diet and try to have my feeding window glass for around 8 to 10 hours a day. I just ordered Beet flow from the company you recommended….. how should I take this? Is it something I take before during or after meals? Thank you
Hi @Destroying Anxiety, yeah, using ox bile can help digest fats with that meal, but doesn't do anything to thin bile out so you can restore that natural bile function.
I can't give specific advice to someone who is not a client, but chapters 3 and 4 of my book go over how to use digestive supplements and figure out what would be best for you and your body chemistry. You can download the book for free here and just skip to chapter 3: kickitnaturally.com/free
If you're destroying anxiety, I hope you've seen our video on the most common causes for anxiety here: ua-cam.com/video/UokNi-R9iLk/v-deo.html
and if you're using keto, you might want to watch this video on the different types of people who might need to fix some issues to keep keto from causing some problems.

@@KickItNaturally brilliant thank you for your response! I struggle with indigestion and ordered beet flow and read the chapters in the book. I used to take HCL alone and still have pretty bad reflux(thinking it could be a bile issue). I know you mentioned advice with clients but is beet flow ok to take alone without HCL? I have been trying bulk for a year(healthy way) and up around 20 pounds…however the ingestion and acid reflux issues have slowed me down a bit. Hoping bile flow improvements will help👍🏻
Hey@Detrroying Anxiety, People report taking Beet flow without HCL all the time when their acid function appears to be working correctly. But if a person is having indigestion and reflux, you'll see that those are two of the biggest signs we talk about in our video for 10 signs of low stomach acid here ua-cam.com/video/W-sDb7lzFI4/v-deo.html

HI @alfonso dacullo , it's normally sold through health professionals. this is the only site where consumers can buy it: www.naturalreference.com/product
hope that helps.
If I wanted to up my protein with whey in a meal, how long to wait to not dilute my stomach acid I need to digest - or other thoughts?
Is there a relationship between HCl and hips and knee pain? I am staring and I feel more loose stool and I don’t if it is my small intestine suffering reflection de pain in this sites
So is it better to supplement with TUDCA before Betaine HCL?
Here is our video on adjusting dose and timing: ua-cam.com/video/4iuYpaiFT3Y/v-deo.html
@@KickItNaturally Thank you, but I have a gallbladder. This video is for people without a gallbladder
Question. What, if any, is the difference between how Betaine may break food down and how digestive enzymes may break food down?
6:31 Both are needed. Betaine HCl will make the stomach acid enough for the enzymes to work properly. Specially the enzymes that break protein, they need a very acidic pH to work.
I am taking digestive enzymes for painful indigestion and they are working for indigestion but I still have bloating, burping and gas. The enzymes also contain ox bile and betain hci (that's hci, not hcl).
(I'm trying so hard to understand how this digestion works!) I saw in another video that may not have been yours that you shouldn't take ox bile orally b/c it will break down the acid while in your stomach instead of waiting until it reaches the small intestine and thus you will not have good absorption of nutrients.
So... my question is should I get the enzymes w/o ox bile and betaine? I have both, but I thought I needed the acid.
Sometimes awhile after I've eaten I get reflux and watered down pickle juice or even a pickle will help that-- as does mint or raw, unsweetened coconut chased with water. 😊
HI @Donna garner the video about taking bile away from food was probably mine. If it wasn't you can watch mine here and it will help you understand: ua-cam.com/video/6EhZiBE2SBc/v-deo.html
Digestive enzymes are a crucial piece of the puzzle, but is someone i having significant discomfort, enzymes are never going to be enough to fix that. You are likely dealing with a bacterial overgrowth that needs to be handled and if you are benefiting from taking ox bile, you probably need to thin your bile so your natural bile function will work.
Your best bet would be to go through our totally free digestion course because that will walk you through figuring out which aspects of digestion are not working correctly and what steps will help you the most. You can find that free course here: kickitnaturally.com/course
That will also teach you the right timing for everything and make it a lot easier to understand. Things like pickle juice or ACV can give a little boost, but are usually not enough to correct major issues.
Come back and let us know how it goes.
I thought my whole issue was not having enough stomach acid from years of PPIs and tums, so when I started supplementing Betaine HCL, it felt like the burning was going beyond my stomach, more to my mid upper abdomen plus nausea about 3-4 hours later. This explains all the dehydration I feel (feel like I’m hungover even though I stopped drinking in 2018). More loose light colored stools.
Go to ur doctor immediately...pale loose stools pancreatitis etc..etc..
Abigail Go to your doctor .
@@lindamahrer7067 I’m good. Doctors are zero help. I’ll continue taking beer flow and bile acid.
I had the same exact issue, what helped me was beat leaf extract to help bile. Game changer for me..
@@toddgeorge1569 lucky. Honestly it did nothing for me. I’ve been taking the beet leaf extract since September and I haven’t felt different. I take it every day as well as the HCL and also do one beet flush a week with the coffee suppositories.
I've had great result from Thorne Bio-Gest, which contains both betaine HCl & bile salt. I'm wondering how these two work together since the former is acidic and the latter is alkaline. Does the neutralization process take place only when all the digestive process is finished in the stomach and the food is ready to go down to duodenum?
Hi!Can I take beet flow(on an empty stomac) and HCl (during the meal) or first I need to fix the problem with bile to flow correctly and then to start taking HCl?
Hi , I can't give specific advice like that here, but chapter 3 and 4 of my book go over insights for these topics and you can download that free here: kickitnaturally.com/free
I just had a hida scan and my galbladder is now at 44% ejection fraction which is now normal. It was at 25% in 2019. I’ve been talking beet flow for a few weeks now. However I still have reflux and want to do hcl.. yet I have a lower esophageal ulcer. Any supplement suggestions to help heal that ?
Zinc carnosine chlorophyll cabbage
I can't make suggestion on specific situations like that for someone who is not a client. But it sounds like you're creating some improvements for yourself. I will try to make a video soon about correcting ulcers.
Take wheat grass powder,/chlorophyll
ive started taking HCL and im waiting for beet flow to arrive to aus still, should i stop HCL then?
This is the video that put all the understanding together for my stomach acid issue... No-one hit this sequence that you have... And now I can proceed with more clarity...a GOD SEND I TELL YOU...THANK YOU ( P.S. and I watched a gazillion podcasts on the stomach acid issue ) Your Take is the Best Foundational Info Ever...🙋🌹👍🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
You're probably right @Sarah Rose. LOL
Actually, thank you, I really appreciate it.
@@KickItNaturally But I felt that your explanation failed to mention the obvious: if someone is not producing the best bile to flow down into the small intestines to neutralize the acidic "clump" now entering therein, then why not tjust ake a bile capsule or Tudca WITH the meal to compensate for any forthcoming lack thereof at the exit ramp? If the "sizzle" that takes place between the acidic stomach acids and alkaline bile capsule happens in the stomach, then so what? Isn't breaking down the food a little bit more aggressively in the stomach with the introduction of the bile cap just one step ahead of the game before the "clump" makes its exit?
Waited for the fix for bile but he drags it out

Thank you. It was informative
My problem seems to be from Estrogen supplementation.
Does betaine affect kidney function are there any studies on that?
That was my case. Loose stools and HCL made it even worse. Thanks for explaining. TUDCA and Beet Flow plus Choline made my digestion normal. HCL is welcome back now!
Can I ask how you took these supplements? I just ordered Beet Flow and I just started taking TUDCA but not sure I am doing this right in order to get my digestion right. I have gallbladder sludge and need to thin out my bile.
I am also suffering from indigestion problem
When I eat raw vegetables and juice it comes out with stools
Does HCl works in such case ?
@@KatieR1978 I’m taking 2 pills TUDCA on an empty stomach at least 30 min before food. Better if 1 hour. Beet Flow just together with food 🙂
Hope you’ll feel better. Speedy recovery
@@MeeraGena not sure someone can tell you until you try.
His explanation failed to mention the obvious: if someone is not producing the best bile to flow down into the small intestines to neutralize the acidic "clump" now entering therein, then why not take a bile capsule or Tudca WITH the meal to compensate for any lack thereof?
I took hcl it helped my throat pain but I hardly take it now.. so take it 4 months a ND reduce dosage.. we l❤ holistic doctors..
Turmeric. Ginger. Are miracle drugs drugs. So hcl is good for 4 months. In my pinion. We ❤️ holistic doctors.
Do u take the pills for turmeric and ginger?
If a capsule of the betaine hcl gets stuck in your throat should you not go to sleep until it passes?
What about no gallbladder, Whipple surgery, as a result EPIwith Creon resulting inlow stomach acid causing osephagus acid reflux chronic cough.

What's a doo ard num
:)
Very good video.
I have trouble gaining weight, if I take betaine HCL and digestive enzymes will it help?If so for my goals which of the two are more important?
Hey
Did u tried
@Kramer9929 Yes, HCL & digestive enzymes both together will help you digest your food thus absorb nutrients. I take both together with each meal and I began gaining weight again. I was so skinny that I was so worried. Now I gained 10. Lb back and I will have about 3 lbs more to go, that is my goal. Hope you will do research and make sure you are taking in nutrients in your body.
I take HCL and it has helped my indigestion A LOT. I have normal stools occasionally, but regularly have stools like rabbit poo / pellets. Very often in fact. What happens if I take bile salts or Beet Flow to thin bile but don't actually need it, will it cause my issues?
I'm not allowed to give advice on specific situations in video comments. But we normally only use ox bile if someone has lost their gallbladder, and this video explains why we don't let any of our clients use HCL without using Beet Flow if that gives you any insights: ua-cam.com/video/2JuuZ5X0vF0/v-deo.html
Should a person take Betaine HCL if you don't have a Gallbladder?
So i need to take betaibe hcl with bile salt for my low acid
How long do I have to take it? Will I have to take it forever?
What happens if you have H Pylori, does it feed on HCL?
h. pylori can feed on chloride, but our opinion is that it can't feed on HCL.
Is it possible for Betaine HCL from Empirical labs to lower blood pressure? I just started yesterday 1 at meal and it lowered mine but also since I did your free digestive course, I don't know if in my case is due to low minerals after years of diharrea from thick bile and low stomach acid and not absorbing nutrients.
We can't give advice on specific situations in video comments, but there are situations where improving digestion can lower blood pressure and situations where it can increase it. But HCL itself does not lower blood pressure. But if you get stuck, this page lists a variety of ways to get help or find your own answers: kickitnaturally.com/get-help/
So if you have no gallbladder you shouldn’t have Betaine HCL? Even if you’re severely constipated?
We definitely did not say that. Here is our video for those who have lost their gallbladder: ua-cam.com/video/jJ_30UK_G0E/v-deo.html
trying to go natural! Is it safe to temporarily take Betaine with PPI for serious GERD and Hernia! I also fast, been slowly fixing diet, taking TUDCA bile salts & papaya enzymes. What do you think? are these 2 unsafe temp?
I can't give specific one-on-one advice for specific situations, but we talk about these types of steps in our totally free digestion course here: kickitnaturally.com/course
and we talk about improving hiatel hernias here: ua-cam.com/video/J4GICcjT9Tw/v-deo.html
Let us know how it goes.
What do you have the HCL is warning?
Great information. I no longer have a gall bladder but I take ox bile from time to time along with the HCL. Just curious how often I should take the ox bile? So many issues with GERD 😢
I still have my gb but it tends to get sludgy & I have stones, so I take the betaine HCl with my meals then I take an ox bile or 2 or Tudca, depending what I have, before bed on an empty stomach. This is what works for me. Don't take the ox bile & betaine at the same time, they will cancel each other out. I would take the betaine right before the meal, then wait 30-60 minutes before taking the ox bile.
SOOO CONFUSED!!! You are saying alot but is it a good to take??? EveryBODY are not SAME!!!!
right, everyone is different. your best bet could be to go through our totally free digestion course because that will walk you through figuring out which aspects of digestion are not working correctly and what steps will help you the most.

Man, get to the point! So what’s the solution??
Best explanation I’ve ever heard!!
since my gall bladder removal bile flows in a constant stream through the day. is Betaine HCL supplementation advised or not? thanks a million
We talk about this in this video: ua-cam.com/video/4iuYpaiFT3Y/v-deo.html
So you should consider taking BeetFlow and monitoring your bile before supplementing HCL? I will take the course, started on your book also. When can you consider it safe to take HCL then?
Yeah, @Jan, if someone is having significant signs of poor bile flow like loose or light colored stools, I will have them fix that first. But as long as someone is taking steps, like Beet Flow, to thin the bile, they can usually test out the HCL to see if it makes stool loose or anything like that. The book and the course walk you through that part so let us know how it goes.
ELIMINATE stress! AND drink MORE ice water.
The stress can be a very big deal.
Can you answer me this. People say a test of good stomach acid is to take a 1/4 tsp of Bicarb of Soda, and if you burp after 20 seconds that means you have good stomach acid.
Well I thought I had low stomach acid and took some ACV and Vinegar and I started to burp.
Wouldn't that mean that my stomach acid was too Alkaline?
The "Alkaline" stomach acid reating with the "Acidic" ACV?
Seems like a good way to test for low stomach acid, the converse being true?
We don't use those tests. Our free digestion course shows you how to figure out if you need help with stomach acid or not.
Of all the other channels TCHale was the one who gave me the information to help me with my stomach issues.
Thank you.
Happy to help and great job fixing your issues, @Johnny B!
What do I do if I have digestive problems, low stomach acid and no gallbladder?
Drink 1 glass of lemonade (1 lemon squeezed in 1 glass of water) or diluted apple cider vinegar (1 tea-spoon of apple cider vinegar in 1 glass of water) every day after meals and you will be fine.
What about those with no gallbladder?
Today I start to take betaine HCl betaine HCl 650 mg pepsin 250000 and gentian bitters 20mg this brand name (doctors best) but when I take this after eating some chicken pieces,bread and potatoes I feel too much bloating and constipation and slow digestion
But as I see all videos on UA-cam everyone is saying betaine HCl can cause more acidic environment so my question is please advice me can I continue taking?? Because Iam not feeling hurt burn but too much dryness .bloating. and constipated and I take only one capsule
This is actually common and this video explains why and steps to correct it: ua-cam.com/video/JFZBva1aWSg/v-deo.html
Can I take Betaine HCL while pregnant? is it safe? I have weak stomach acid and it gives me nausea and vomiting
HI @Izy Bunny , you're not going to find anyone who is going to say whether doing anything while pregnant is safe or not. Too many things can go wrong and too much liability. But here is a podcast episode that talks about steps I took while my wife was pregnant: kickitnaturally.com/infertility-issues-2-part-episode/
@@KickItNaturally Hi.. I took tudca instead twice because I have a digestion problem without reading the warnings. I feel so stupid and Im so worried cause Im 2 months pregnant.. Did it harm my baby? Please reply
I have no idea, but I would be surprised if taking tudca twice would cause any trouble.
HCL only helps my digestion. No bad signs for me.
How soon after taking Betaine should u take ox bile to neutralize?
