SunButyrate® Liquid was specifically designed to support the GI tract 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 a key energy source for colon cells. By promoting epithelial barrier integrity, bowel motility, cell differentiation and cytokine balance, butyrate provides important support to the intestines.
Clinical trials have demonstrated that daily butyrate supplementation promotes intestinal comfort and function, including healthy GI motility and reduced bloating; however, its use is typically limited by poor palatability, odor and colonic absorption. SunButyrate® provides butyrate in a unique, highly palatable triglyceride form, which protects against premature degradation in the stomach and upper GI tract.
While other forms demonstrate 70% breakdown in the stomach, GI models and in vitro studies reveal only 6-8% breakdown with SunButyrate®, in addition to this form maintaining over 90% integrity in the intestine.
Available in a delicious natural blueberry-vanilla flavor, SunButyrate® Liquid can be taken alone or mixed into food or drinks for an easy way to support overall GI comfort and function.
Recommended Dose

The Evidence for Butyrate
Promotes GI Motility, Abdominal Comfort, and Reduced Bloating2‡Clinical trials indicate that butyrate supplementation supports intestinal function and promotes healthy cytokine balance in the GI tract. In a 30-day trial involving 50 subjects, 1 g butyrate reduced bloating in 68% of subjects and was associated with improved scores for abdominal comfort, bloating, and flatulence.²
POSTBIOTICS:
The future of gut health? Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), such as butyrate, are energy sources for the cells of the GI tract and are examples of POSTBIOTICS, which are metabolic by-products from probiotic microorganisms with biological activity.¹ Butyrate plays a major role in intestinal physiology, supporting both physical and biochemical protective barrier function, bowel motility, nutrient absorption, and immune activity of intestinal cells. It also promotes the proliferation, differentiation, and cellular renewal process.‡Research suggests that SCFAs produced by intestinal bacteria activate key players in the regulation of energy metabolism in the gut, as well as healthy gene expression for mucin production, supporting tight-junction assembly, healthy mucous production, and a healthy intestinal barrier.
Better bioavailability compared to other leading professional brands**
Butyrate is typically produced in the colon. Oral butyrate salts are easily degraded by stomach acid, preventing delivery to the colon. SunButyrate’s proprietary formulation is designed to protect butyrate from degradation in the stomach, maintaining optimal delivery to the small intestine.
In Fact
Only 30% of a common butyrate form reaches the small intestine intact
vs.
90% of SunButyrate® Liquid for optimal utilization
**As of 6/1/19 among leading professional brands.
