BioCare Butyric Acid 90 Veg Capsules

Description

BioCare Butyric Acid

Butyric Acid 90 Capsules is designed to supply a stable, bioavailable form of butyrate—one of the most important short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) produced by beneficial gut bacteria. Butyrate plays a central role in maintaining the health of the intestinal lining, supporting colonocyte energy, modulating inflammation, and encouraging balanced microbiome activity. Many people today consume low-fibre diets or experience digestive stress, reducing natural butyrate production. This supplement provides a direct, convenient way to support gut function and intestinal integrity.

Butyrate is the primary fuel used by the cells of the colon. These cells rely on a steady supply of butyrate to regenerate properly and maintain a strong, intact mucosal barrier. When butyrate levels are low, the gut lining may become more permeable, digestive comfort can decrease, and microbial balance may shift unfavourably. Supplementing with butyrate helps reinforce the structure of the gut wall, supporting smoother digestion and overall gastrointestinal resilience.

This formula typically uses calcium or magnesium butyrate, providing a buffered form that can travel safely through the digestive system and release steadily. It is particularly helpful for individuals who experience bloating, irregular bowel habits, or discomfort after eating fermentable foods. It may also support those who have difficulty tolerating high-fibre diets or want to encourage healthier microbiome activity.

Beyond gut support, butyrate has beneficial secondary effects in metabolic balance, immune response, and inflammation regulation. By nourishing the gut lining, it indirectly supports the immune system, which resides largely within the gastrointestinal tract. Butyrate is also involved in gene expression linked to cellular repair, making it a powerful compound for overall digestive wellbeing.

This capsule format is ideal for those who prefer an odour-controlled option, as raw butyric acid naturally has a strong smell. The encapsulated form reduces this dramatically while keeping the active ingredient effective.
