Expert opinion
Specialized support for your gut
Sodium butyrate FORTE is classified as a food for special medical purposes. It contains butyric acid that demonstrates positive effects on gut health, which is why it can be very helpful in restoring microbiological balance of the gastrointestinal tract. This is particularly important for people suffering from IBS or irregular bowel movements. Sodium butyrate nourishes intestinal cells, takes part in the regeneration of the intestinal mucosa, and supports the growth of a healthy microbiota. In combination with medical treatment, it can have a positive impact on overall health and help alleviate disease symptoms. Butyric acid is naturally produced in the colon and is immediately used by epithelial cells as a source of energy. It accelerates epithelial regeneration and water absorption in the intestine.
