BioCare Butyric Acid Complex Calcium & Magnesium 90 Capsules
BioCare Butyric Acid Complex
(Plus calcium and magnesium)
Butyric acid is a short chain fatty acid produced as the result of the bacterial breakdown of dietary fibre. It feeds the epithelial mucosa cells lining the gut wall and is essential in maintaining the integrity of the gastrointestinal wall.
The fibre in whole foods, such as fruits and vegetables provides a natural substrate for the production of butyric acid, a short chain fatty acid produced by the normal bowel flora which is the end result of the bacterial breakdown of dietary fibre. Butyric acid feeds the epithelial mucosa cells lining the gut wall and is essential in maintaining the integrity of the gastrointestinal wall.
