The correct answer is Bile juice.
Bile juice helps neutralize the acidic contents that come from the stomach into the small intestine. When acidic food passes from the stomach into the small intestine, bile, which is alkaline, helps to neutralize the stomach acid, creating a more neutral pH in the small intestine, which is necessary for digestion.
Pepsin, gastric juice, and hydrochloric acid are all involved in digestion in the stomach but contribute to acidity rather than neutralizing it.
