Ingredients explained
Butanoic Acid (butyrate)
Butyrate serves as a fuel for colon cells and acts as a signalling molecule that may support a balanced gut environment and intestinal barrier integrity.
Caution: Start with food to reduce possible digestive discomfort, and consider spacing from other supplements if sensitive to short-chain fatty acids.
Caprylic Acid
Caprylic acid is a medium-chain fatty acid that may disrupt lipid membranes of undesirable microbes in the gut while being readily metabolised for energy.
Caution: May cause mild stomach upset in some people; take with food if sensitive to fatty acids.
Magnesium
Magnesium acts as a cofactor in hundreds of enzyme reactions and may support normal muscle function of the intestinal tract.
Caution: High intakes can loosen stools; keep total daily magnesium from all sources in mind.
Larch Arabinogalactan
Arabinogalactan is a fermentable fibre that may feed beneficial gut bacteria and promote production of short-chain fatty acids.
Caution: Fibre can cause gas or bloating at first; increase fluid intake to aid tolerance.
How they work together
Butyrate nourishes colon cells and supports barrier integrity, while arabinogalactan feeds gut microbes that produce additional short-chain fatty acids. Caprylic acid adds a medium-chain fatty acid that targets undesirable microbes, and magnesium supports normal intestinal muscle function.
