Butyrate
What exactly is Butyrate?
Butyrate is a short chain fatty acid (SCFA)
that has been combined with calcium &
magnesium. It is made in the lower
colon by bacteria and taken up by the
colonocytes, the cells that line the
colon. It then becomes an important
food for those cells. Lacking good
bacteria in our colon, such as when we
take antibiotics, can lead to an
insufficient supply of butyrate.
What is Butyrate used for?
Butyrate scrubs & cleans the liver, the
gall bladder and the biliary tree. It
also cleans the bowel, controls ammonia,
removes renegade fats (the very long
ones that accumulate with age) and
lowers the expression of inflammatory
immune markers called cytokines.
What is the recommended dosage of
Butyrate?
Approximately 2-3 caps daily, unless
otherwise suggested by a HCP.
How long will 1 bottle of Butyrate last?
It depends on how many you take daily -
they are sold in 100 or 250 count
bottles.
Can Butyrate be taken on an empty
stomach?
We have never heard of any problems
taking Butyrate on an empty stomach.
What are the ingredients in Butyrate?
Butyric Acid, Calcium Hydroxide,
Magnesium Hydroxide, and Diglycerides
