What is role of HCL in our stomach

Answered by admin @



HCL is an important acid in the stomach. It helps in killing bacteria and other harmful organisms. It also acts as a food preservative. Apart from that, HCL helps to convert inactive pepsinogen into pepsin for digesting proteins in our stomach. HCL also acts as another coating on the stomach wall - apart from mucus - to prevent pepsin to digest the entire stomach..
