    • Conditions after taking antibiotics , which have violated the qualities of the normal intestinal flora.
    • Conditions that occur after chemotherapy (mucositis) or radiotherapy (atrophic colitis) and are associated with direct damage of the mucous membrane by the active substance.
    • Conditions of increased metabolic needs of organism associated with the need for rapid growth or muscle mass.
    • The Ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease are diseases associated with disruption of integrity of the mucous membrane of the colon due to autoimmune conflict.
    • There are data of improvement of the metabolic syndrome (disorder of blood sugar, blood fats, overweight, high blood pressure, oily liver). Studies have shown that within one week the insulin sensitivity in patients increases by 300%.
    • Butyric acid is successfully used in cases of encephalopathy in liver cirrhosis caused by high levels of ammonia in blood.
    • There are data of anti-tumor effect due to stimulation of the “correct” cell division.

Butyric acid has beneficial effects on epithelial (surface) cells of the colon. It is one of the few substances that are directly used by the intestinal cells without passing processing in the liver. Thus, mucous membrane becomes thicker, healthier and metabolically active. This has several beneficial effects – reduction of inflammation, healing of previously damaged mucous membrane, improvement of the operation of the colon as a whole, which leads to better suction and respectively absorption of nutrients and, therefore, weight gain. Healthier mucous membrane affects and improves the quality of “beneficial” bacteria (symbiosis).
These effects are favorable for conditions and diseases which are associated with breach of the integrity and operation of the mucous membrane or have got increased demands towards it.
