Is this made of papain? Vegetable pepsin?

Hi there - no does not contain papain, the pepsin is not vegetarian in this product.Hope that helps - it is possible to get HCL without pepsin I believe.

How many mg of betaine HCL does each capsule contain?

2 capsules ( serving size) contain 1.04 g betaine HCL and 40 mg pepsin.

do these have a very long use by date on them?

December 2014 according to eBay. (12/2014) I dropped this supplement in favour of the far superior "B.P.P" (betaine/pepsin/pancreatin) for digestion of fats, carbohydrates, and proteins. " Hydrochloric acid secretion in the stomach does several positive things. It assists protein digestion by activating pepsinogen to pepsin, it renders the stomach sterile against ingested pathogens, it inhibits undesirable overgrowth in the small intestine, and it encourages the flow of bile and pancreatic enzymes.* Hydrochloric acid also facilitates the absorption of a number of nutrients, including folate, vitamin B12, ascorbic acid, beta-carotene, iron, and some forms of calcium, magnesium, and zinc.* Numerous studies have shown hydrochloric acid secretion in the stomach declines with advancing age." Hope that helps.

Can these be cut in half or are they capsules with powder in? Thanks. God bless x

The Thorne Research - Betaine HCL & Pepsin are capsules. It is not recommended to remove the Betaine HCL & Pepsin powder from the capsule, as it can be irritating to the oral mucosa.
