  Butyric acid is nothing new. I do not like the addition of calcium propionate I wonder why they use it. Here is some evidence that might suggest it should be used with caution:

  I think most of the issues cited in the studies and anecdotal reports were because of people intolerant to wheat instead of issues with calcium propionate since it is a common preservative in bread products.

  My book Fix Your Gut, is offered on Amazon for $9.99.

  EnteroViteâ„¢ (K100) incorporates nutrients and a proprietary blend of fatty acids in a formulation intended to support the intestines and intestinal cell function.* This unique formulation is designed for those who are sensitive to certain foods components, such as certain starches and fibers, and who want additional intestinal support.* Short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), normal bacterial end products of complex carbohydrates, play important roles in intestinal microbial balance and function.* Diets that are low in resistant starch and fiber can result in a low production of SCFAs. Key ingredients include butyric acid and calcium propionate.

  
  

   

  
  

  Interesting concept for people with special digestive needs, but I don't see why someone who can handle starch and fiber would exclude them and take this product instead. Plus, BPers get butyric acid from butter. 

  
  

   

  
  

  Also I don't like all the asterisks with the corresponding disclaimer seemingly hidden away in a separate tab. Sloppy.

  Would this produce similar results to that of CLA??
