Sodium butyrate is the sodium form of butyric acid, a short-chain fatty acid that naturally occurs in your gut when intestinal bacteria ferment fiber. Your body therefore produces this acid partly on its own, but you can also take it as a supplement. This sodium butyrate from Vit4ever provides 600 mg per capsule, 90 percent of which consists of pure butyric acid. You only take 1 capsule per day, so a bottle of 180 capsules lasts for six months.
Butyric acid, also known as butter acid, naturally occurs in your large intestine when bacteria break down indigestible fibers. It is one of the most important short-chain fatty acids formed in this way, alongside acetic acid and propionic acid. Pure butyric acid is a volatile, strongly scented liquid, with a smell that many people associate with rancid butter. To make it usable as a supplement, it is bound to sodium, creating sodium butyrate: a stable, solid salt instead of a liquid acid. In this bound form, the acid is largely odorless and easy to dose in a capsule. Vit4ever deliberately chooses this form precisely to make daily use more practical than would be possible with pure, liquid butyric acid. The capsule itself is also resistant to stomach acid, which means that it does not dissolve directly in your stomach but further down in the gastrointestinal tract.
Many people who use sodium butyrate also pay attention to their fiber intake, for example through whole grains, vegetables, and legumes. After all, fiber is the raw material from which intestinal bacteria produce butyric acid themselves. One capsule of sodium butyrate and a high-fiber diet therefore complement each other instead of one replacing the other. With 1 capsule of sodium butyrate per day, you add a fixed amount of 540 mg of butyric acid. This makes it a straightforward supplement for those who are already consciously mindful of what they eat.
Vit4ever's sodium butyrate is completely vegan: the capsule itself is plant-based in composition, made of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose instead of gelatin. The product contains no unnecessary fillers, colorings, or flavorings. This means you know exactly what you are taking: sodium butyrate and the capsule shell, nothing more. Vit4ever has every batch produced independently tested for content and purity, so that the 90 percent butyric acid stated on the label is actually in the capsule. With 1 capsule per day and 180 capsules per bottle, you have a six-month supply on hand at once, without having to reorder halfway through. Whether you are just starting with sodium butyrate or have been using it for a while: with 1 capsule per day, the routine remains simple.
Each capsule provides 600 mg of sodium butyrate, 90 percent of which is pure butyric acid.
The bound sodium form neutralizes the characteristic strong odor of pure butyric acid, making daily intake more pleasant.
The capsule is resistant to stomach acid, so that its contents are only released further down the gastrointestinal tract.
With 180 vegan capsules per jar and a recommended dose of 1 capsule per day, you get a six-month supply at once.

It is the sodium form of butyric acid, a short-chain fatty acid that is naturally produced in your gut when dietary fiber is fermented by gut bacteria.
A capsule provides 600 mg of sodium butyrate, 90 percent of which, approximately 540 mg, consists of butyric acid.
No. Pure butyric acid has a strong, pungent odor, but in the bound sodium form, this is largely neutralized. As a result, these capsules are virtually odorless.
You don't have to, but you can. Fiber is the raw material from which your gut bacteria produce butyric acid themselves, so a high-fiber diet and this supplement complement each other rather than one replacing the other.
The acid-resistant capsule ensures that the contents are released further down the gastrointestinal tract.
Pure butyric acid is a liquid, strongly scented acid. Sodium butyrate is the same substance, but bound to sodium to form a stable salt, which makes it suitable for a capsule and keeps it virtually odourless.
