Tri-Butyrin Supreme 60sft - Health Projects

Designs for Health Tri-Butyrin Supreme™ represents a new approach to gut health and immune function by modulating gut flora, promoting colonocyte health, and supporting proper intestinal permeability.

This product features CoreBiome™, a patented form of tri-butyrin, consisting of three butyric acid (butyrate) molecules bound to glycerol.

“Postbiotics” – a new frontier in gut health!
Contributors to gut health can be divided into three categories: prebiotics, probiotics, and postbiotics.

Prebiotics are fibers that the human body cannot digest, such as the "resistant starch" found in green bananas. Because these fibers are not digested by enzymes in the small intestine, they reach the colon intact, where they serve as food for beneficial bacteria—the "gut flora"—known as probiotics.

“ Postbiotics ” is a new term for the compounds produced by these beneficial colonic bacteria as a result of the breakdown of fiber through fermentation. One such compound is butyrate, a special type of fat that occurs naturally in dairy fats like butter and cheese, as well as in some fermented vegetables. While the butyrate present in foods is metabolized primarily in the stomach and small intestine, the butyrate in Tri-Butyrin Supreme™ resists degradation in the upper gastrointestinal tract and reaches the colon, where its effects are directed.

It is widely recognized that high-fiber diets support overall health and are especially beneficial for digestive/intestinal health. Fiber itself may be necessary for some of the observed health effects of high-fiber diets, but postbiotic compounds—butyrate, in particular—may be crucial factors in healthy gut function. In fact, some of the positive aspects of dietary fiber may be driven by butyrate activity, not the fiber itself.
Highlight for butyrate.

Butyrate has several interesting properties that make it potentially useful for those living with suboptimal bowel function. One such property is that it supports the physical structure of the colon, helping the cells that make up the intestinal lining adhere properly. (You may have heard the term “leaky gut,” which refers to these cells being further apart than normal, which can compromise the integrity of the gut.) The gut is one of the body's first lines of defense against harmful compounds, so it's a primary player in the immune system. By supporting the gut lining, butyrate contributes to healthy immune function. Additionally, butyrate helps promote regularity, which may help those with the occasional cold. This intriguing compound also supports a healthy inflammatory response in the gut and serves as the primary fuel source for colonic cells.

Each softgel provides 300 mg of this new, widely used compound.
