Hi, may i ask if these pills are ok for general stomach discomfort or does it cause any side effect? Is it safe to eat it even when there is no stomach discomfort ?
stomach juice is hydrochloride acid (HCI).
most brands of these pills r alkaline, hence the bitter taste... to neutralise the pH level of the stomach.
if stomach got nothing wrong n u go eat, then the pH level of the stomach is neutralise at ph 7, then how to digest the food in the stomach... HCl is the acid to break down the food...

HCl does NOT breakdown food. Its the enzmes that does it. The HCl in the stomach is only very minimal and mainly to create an acidic environment for the enzymes to work since the enzymes in the stomach requires an acidic environment.
