Butyrate is a short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) produced by the microbiome within the colon. It is made by the bacterial fermentation of resistant starch in our guts. Healthy levels of butyrate in the gut promote a balanced microbiome. Available in two formulations: Calcium/Magnesium Butyrate and Sodium Butyrate.
• Promotes gut/microbiome health
• Can reinforce the mucosal barrier
• Supports motility
• Supports insulin response and healthy blood sugar regulation
• Can help close the tight junctions in the gut, thus can help prevent dysbiosis
• May reduce inflammation in the body
Butyrate is useful in repairing the lining of the gut and supports healthy inflammation response. It is made for and by the healthy gut bacteria and supplementing may be needed if not ingesting enough amounts of fibre from starchy foods. Sodium butyrate is the form that occurs naturally in the body and is the most widely researched.
