Methyl donors (TMG and B-12) are both necessary for hydrochloric acid formation and release. Confirmatory, but circumstantial, evidence for this condition would be a tendency towards dyspepsia (upset stomach), or heartburn.
You may also find benefit from the use of proteolytic enzymes. There are many products out there, some analogs of your own proteases, others from vegetable sources. Of the latter, I prefer bromelain over e.g. papain, and bromelain also has anti-inflammatory activity, systemically.
