The fibre in whole foods, such as fruits and vegetables provides a natural substrate for the production of butyric acid, a short chain fatty acid produced by the normal bowel flora which is the end result of the bacterial breakdown of dietary fibre. Butyric acid feeds the epithelial mucosa cells lining the gut wall and is essential in maintaining the integrity of the gastrointestinal wall.
Features
· Butyric acid is primarily utilised in the large intestine
· Butyric acid helps L. acidophilus and B. bifidum adhere to gut epithelial tissue
· Butyric acid is required as a primary source of energy for rapidly growing intestinal cells
· Butyric acid helps to increase the natural healing mechanism of the gut tissue
· Butyric acid has a normalising effect upon the production of 'on site' enzymes and has a supportive role upon intestinal immune resistance
· Suitable for vegetarians and vegans
