SunButyrate™ Liquid was designed to provide a supplemental dietary source of butyric acid with SunButyrate™, a proprietary butyrate-rich triglyceride oil. Butyrate is one of the most abundant short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) in the colon, where it acts as an important energy source for colon cells. Research has shown that butyrate accounts for approximately 70% of the total energy consumption of colonic epithelial cells (colonocytes). Once absorbed, colonocytes quickly oxidize 95% of the butyrate to ketone bodies for the synthesis of ATP2. Thus, butyrate serves as an important source of energy for the body, providing 5 to 15 percent of a person's daily caloric needs.
SunButyrate™ provides butyrate in a unique, flavorful triglyceride form, which protects against premature breakdown in the stomach and upper digestive tract. While other forms degrade 70% in the stomach, GI models and in vitro studies reveal that only 6-8% of SunButyrate™ degrades. In addition, this form maintains more than 90% of its integrity in the intestine. Offered in a delicious natural blueberry and vanilla flavor, SunButyrate™ Liquid can be taken alone or mixed with foods or drinks as a butyrate dietary supplement.
