About Aura Herbals – Sodium Butyrate 600 mg Microencapsulated (90 caps)
Aura Herbals Sodium Butyrate 600 mg Microencapsulated delivers 300 mg of sodium butyrate per capsule — standardised to 80% butyric acid — in a plant-based HPMC Vcaps® capsule. The microencapsulation technology uses an ethylcellulose coating to help protect the active compound through the upper gastrointestinal tract, supporting targeted delivery to the large intestine where butyrate is naturally produced by gut bacteria during the fermentation of dietary fibre.
Butyric acid is a short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) that serves as a primary energy source for colonocytes (the cells lining the colon). This formulation is designed for adults and, under medical supervision, for children over 7 years of age. Each pack contains 90 capsules, providing a convenient supply for an extended course of use as directed by a healthcare professional.
The formula contains no gluten and no lactose, and is enclosed in a 100% plant-based cellulose capsule, making it suitable for vegan and vegetarian lifestyles. As with all food supplements, this product is intended to complement — not replace — a varied and balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle.
