ForMeds Bicaps Butyric Sodium Butyrate 60 Capsules

ForMeds dietary supplement Bicaps Butyric Sodium Butyrate is a high-quality product containing sodium butyrate, a source of butyric acid (or butanoic acid). This acid is a short-chain fatty acid with proven health benefits. ForMeds' formulation is safe and has a simple, safe composition.

Short-chain fatty acids are the main source of dietary carbon for the gut microbiota. Butyrate therefore has a positive effect on the gut microflora, as bacteria that gain access to nutrients can perform their work efficiently [1].

The intestinal microbiota also influences the immune system through the proliferation of regulatory T lymphocytes in the colon. These lymphocytes are an important element in the body's immune response against any pathogenic microorganisms [2].

In summary, the ForMeds Bicaps Butyric Sodium Butyrate dietary supplement is a high-quality product that is a very good source of butyric acid, a short-chain fatty acid. This acid is sometimes also called butyric acid. This compound is naturally present in the human body, but its levels decrease with age and/or inadequate fiber intake. The advantage of the ForMeds supplement is its simple composition and capsule form, which not only ensure convenient administration but also ensure that the substance reaches its site of action—the intestines.
