How to Activate Pepsin
- 1). Consume foods that are high in proteins such as eggs, meat or cheese. Pepsin is a natural enzyme designed to break down proteins. Once the protein is present in the stomach, the body secretes pepsin from the walls of the stomach.
- 2). Take the prescribed pepsin supplement as directed by a medical doctor.
- 3). Continue to consume foods high in protein. The pepsin supplement and the hydrochloric acid in the stomach activate the pepsin that has been secreted from the stomach wall to assist in the continued digestion of the protein.
