Butyrate is amazing!

Butyrate is a metabolite that can be produced in your gut. It:

• May power gut cell regeneration

• May combat leaky gut

• May calm the immune system

• May enable memory formation

• May fight inflammation throughout the body

• You can make butyrate in your gut by feeding certain bacteria specific types of fibre.

Butyrate provides energy for cell regeneration, as well as playing a key role in immune function and inflammation.

Butyrate provides an anti-inflammatory benefit in the gut and beyond. Inflammation is being identified as one of the primary drivers of chronic disease and reduced quality of life. By promoting butyrate production in the gut, it may be possible to reduce the risk of inflammatory diseases.

Butyrate acts in the brain by promoting long-term memory formation as well as reducing inflammation which can lead to brain degeneration over time. Loss of brain function is common as we age.

Butyrate is a molecule that helps to regulate sleep and lift your mood. It does this by stimulating the production of serotonin in your body. Serotonin is a molecule that helps you feel better.

How can I produce more butyrate?

The bacteria in your gut convert dietary fibre into various by-products including vitamins and metabolites. Certain bacteria convert certain starches and fibres into butyrate. This butyrate is then absorbed into the cells of the gut for their use, and the surplus passes through into your body to provide a health benefit

How does Supergut^™ Repair produce butyrate?

Supergut^™ Repair is a combination of fibres and starches which are known butyrate producers in the gut. It also has the benefit of antioxidants which combat oxidative stress and abundant free radicals.
