Betaine, or TMG, is also involved in the manufacture of carnitine, and helps protect the kidneys from damage. Betaine HCl, or betaine hydrochloride, is an supplemental, chloride-salt form of betaine that is useful as a digestive aid.
A betaine deficiency is not thought to be common in western nations, mostly because betaine is present in high amounts in wheat products, which are a staple in most peopleâs diets. Although itâs not directly due to low betaine intake, diets low in betaine may contribute to high homocysteine in the blood.. Betaine is used to treat alcoholic liver damage that results in the accumulation of fat in the liver. Betaine has lipotropic (fat-reducing) effects, so it has been shown to produce significant improvements in healing fatty liver disease by helping the liver to process and remove fats.
