{"product_id":"natriumbutyraat-sr-960mg","title":"Sodium Butyrate SR 960mg | 120 Capsules | Osavi","description":"\u003ch2\u003eOsavi Sodium Butyrate SR 960 mg\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese capsules contain \u003cstrong\u003esodium butyrate\u003c\/strong\u003e with a slow-release coating. Two capsules per day provide a total of 960 mg of sodium butyrate, of which 768 mg is butyric acid. Sodium butyrate is the sodium salt of butyric acid, a short-chain fatty acid that also occurs naturally in your body. Thanks to the slow-release technology, the substance is released gradually, and the characteristic smell and taste of butyric acid are suppressed. The capsules are plant-based and therefore suitable for vegans. For those who want to take \u003cstrong\u003esodium butyrate\u003c\/strong\u003e in a practical, low-odor form.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is Sodium Butyrate?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSodium butyrate is the sodium salt of butyric acid. Butyric acid is a short-chain fatty acid, a small type of fatty acid. In your body, it occurs naturally in the large intestine, where bacteria ferment dietary fiber. You also find butyric acid in small amounts in dairy and fermented products; it gets its name from butter, where it occurs naturally. In this supplement, it is bound to sodium to form a stable salt, so it can be processed into a capsule. As a salt, it is more stable and easier to dose than the liquid acid itself. This way, you get a fixed, measured amount per capsule.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eButyric Acid, a Short-Chain Fatty Acid\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eShort-chain fatty acids are fatty acids with a short carbon chain. Butyric acid is one of them, along with acetic acid and propionic acid; together, they form the three most common short-chain fatty acids that originate in the large intestine. They are released when gut bacteria break down fibers from your diet. Butyric acid has a distinctive, somewhat pungent odor, the same smell you perceive with old butter. This immediately explains why pure sodium butyrate powders smell so strong. In these capsules, butyric acid is processed as a sodium salt and protected by a coating, which means you notice little of that smell.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy slow release?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePure sodium butyrate has a strong, somewhat rancid smell and taste, which many people find unpleasant. This is where slow-release technology comes in. The coating ensures that the substance is not released all at once but gradually. This largely shields the typical smell and taste. In practice, this means: you swallow a capsule without tasting the pungent smell of butyric acid. The abbreviation SR stands for slow release, meaning delayed release. That is the difference from regular sodium butyrate capsules without this coating. Because you take two capsules a day, you also divide the intake throughout the day: one in the morning and one in the evening. This way, you spread the amount and keep the intake easily integrated into your routine.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e960 mg per day, low odor and vegan\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTwo capsules per day provide 960 mg of sodium butyrate, of which 768 mg is butyric acid. The jar contains 120 capsules, enough for 60 days at two per day. The composition is deliberately simple: in addition to sodium butyrate, Osavi uses cellulose as a filler and cellulose-based substances for the shell and coating. No unnecessary additives. The capsules are free of gluten, lactose, soy, and GMOs and suitable for vegans. Good to know: according to the manufacturer, this product should be used under medical supervision and is intended only for adults. In short: \u003cstrong\u003esodium butyrate\u003c\/strong\u003e in a low-odor slow-release capsule, with 960 mg per daily dose.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Osavi","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52869130387794,"sku":"Osavi-034","price":20.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/9006\/2812\/files\/osavi-butyrate.png?v=1786712666","url":"https:\/\/www.luto-supplements.nl\/en\/products\/natriumbutyraat-sr-960mg","provider":"LUTO Supplements","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
