About 1-3% of middle aged people have insufficient stomach acid, meaning that nutrients are not fully absorbed.

Any suggestions for good treatment options? Taking acid pills with meals (Betain HCL) is one possibility. Any others?

Not highly confident about this, but i've heard anecdotes that lemon juice sometimes helps.

Perhaps it works better if you combine it with beetroot juice (which contains a lot of betaine).
