The verdict
Thoughtfully stacked.
For general wellness buyers.

Betaine anhydrous (trimethylglycine) at 1.6g as a pure powder. This is typically used for exercise performance (power output, body composition). The dose is below the commonly studied 2.5g but provides a meaningful amount. Pure powder form gives dosing flexibility. Clean single ingredient. For the price, this is a decent entry point for betaine supplementation.

The read

NOW Foods NOW Betaine HCl: the formulation holds up. Lead: Betaine Anhydrous at 1.6 g. Betaine anhydrous (trimethylglycine) at 1.6g as a pure powder. Clinical dose on the primary, and the panel holds together.

Muscle power and endurance support. This provides 1600mg of pure betaine anhydrous, which is a great start for improving power and heart health. It doesn't quite reach the 2.5 gram dose used in the most famous athletic studies, so serious lifters might want to take a bit more. It is a no frills option that does exactly what it says on the bottle.
