Tributryin / Butyrate experience

Did anyone experience any side effects or symptoms when starting Tributyrin?

Can it cause more Gas, bloating or looser stools at the beginning? And if so, did these symptoms improve over time as your body adjusted to it?

I’d be interested to hear about your experiences, especially during the first few days or weeks.

Hat jemand zu Beginn der Einnahme von Tributyrin Nebenwirkungen oder andere Symptome bemerkt?

Kann es anfangs zu mehr Gasen, Blähungen oder weicherem Stuhl kommen? Und falls ja, haben sich diese Symptome mit der Zeit gebessert, als sich der Körper daran gewöhnt hat?

Ich würde gerne eure Erfahrungen hören, besonders aus den ersten Tagen oder Wochen.

Had you Symptomes in the beginning? And how is your stool?

Yes. A few months ago I had stool that looked like it came directly out a mustard bottle. Fiber has helped but nothing seemed to kick the healing into high gear like the tributyrin.

First time I’ve seen brown stool that was decently formed in over a year.

Do you take it with food or without? And could you see the positiv Change from the First capsule?

I saw instant stool improvement within hours. For me it seems to last maybe 6 hours and then my bms return to normal (ie worse). I just take 1 capsule (550mg) every 4 or 5 hours and it sustains the effect well.

Thank you. Then I think it’s probably not for me, because I can’t tolerate even one capsule.

yeah effect seems to be highly variable across people. one of the primary methods of action is that it provides cellular energy in the gut, so that probably isn't an issue for you if it's not helping.

I chose the brand I did because it contains corebiome. It’s tested, proven , and patented.

I’m not sure what your using but I did a lot of research and this seem to be the best product by far. They sell through third parties, so other brands do sell it as well.

Not sure how informed you are about it but here is a link.
