Many patients then experience a condition known as achlorhydria, where there is not enough acid in stomach.

Eventually, all the parietal cells are lost and achlorhydria results leading to a loss of negative feedback on gastrin secretion.

Calcium absorption and achlorhydria.

Having too little or no gastric acid is known as hypochlorhydria or achlorhydria respectively and are conditions which can have negative health impacts.

It is not yet clear why these abnormalities will cause incomplete development of the brain, achlorhydria, and failure in the maintenance of retinal tissue.

Intestinal metaplasia, achlorhydria, and the formation of carcinogenic N-nitroso compounds are suggested pathogenetic factors.

Atrophic gastritis with pernicious anemia and achlorhydria.

Congo red is used as a test for achlorhydria in the stomach, as it changes colour from red to black at a pH less than 3.

The atrophic process gradually causes the disappearance of all acid producing parietal cells (total atrophy) and leads to achlorhydria.

A person with achlorhydria can suffer from stomach pains caused by the digestion of food that is not properly broken down by gastric acid.

A stomach condition in which the stomach is not producing hydrochloric acid (achlorhydria): Don't use enteric-coated peppermint oil if you have this condition.
