Butyrate

Butyrate

Butyrate, also known as butyric acid, is a natural compound produced by the body in the large intestine through the breakdown of dietary fiber. It is one of the most important postbiotic substances with a significant impact on gut health, immunity, and overall body balance.

Health Benefits of Butyrate

• Nourishes the intestinal lining – it’s the primary energy source for the cells of the gut lining
• Reduces inflammation – especially in the digestive tract, but also systemically
• Supports the immune system – helps create protective immune cells and reduces overactive immune responses
• Prevents leaky gut syndrome – reduces intestinal permeability and prevents harmful substances from entering the bloodstream
• Aids digestion and reduces bloating, especially in functional disorders like SIBO or IBS
• Maintains a healthy gut microbiome – promotes the growth of beneficial bacteria
• Positively affects the brain and mood – via the so-called gut-brain axis

Butyrate by Medveď Natural comes in a microencapsulated form, meaning the butyric acid is enclosed in tiny protective shells (microcapsules).

Microencapsulation means the active ingredient is enclosed in small capsules that protect it from breakdown, ensure it is released exactly where needed (such as in the colon), and reduce its taste, smell, or irritation to the stomach.

This results in improved effectiveness and better tolerance.

Why Choose Microencapsulated Butyrate?

Regular butyrate can have a very unpleasant smell and taste, and may degrade before reaching its target – the large intestine.

• Protection of the active ingredient during digestion
• Targeted release in the large intestine
• Increased effectiveness and bioavailability
• Gentleness on the stomach
