How common is low stomach acid in those with thyroid conditions?

Adequate stomach acid levels are vital for overall health.

Stomach acid—released from the parietal cells of the stomach lining—has several essential functions, including protein digestion, nutrient absorption, and helping to keep bacteria in check. Low stomach acid, a condition known as hypochlorhydria, is widespread in those with thyroid conditions.
