Humming Herbs® Tributyrin is a gut support capsule supplement providing tributyrin 850 mg at 95%, yielding 731 mg of butyrate, per two-capsule serving, with L-glutamine 400 mg, zinc as zinc L-carnosine 9 mg, fructooligosaccharides 100 mg and a 5 billion CFU probiotic blend, in a bottle of 120 capsules — 60 servings. It is for adults who want butyrate in its triglyceride form rather than as a mineral or sodium salt.
What is tributyrin, and how is it different from butyrate salts?
Tributyrin is a triglyceride: a glycerol backbone carrying three butyrate molecules. Because the butyrate is esterified rather than bound to a mineral, it is delivered as a fat rather than a salt, and the panel states the yield — 850 mg of tributyrin at 95% yields 731 mg of butyrate. That yield figure is the number to compare against a sodium or calcium butyrate label.
What else is in the formula?
L-glutamine 400 mg, the amino acid used as fuel by intestinal cells. Zinc as zinc L-carnosine 9 mg (82% DV) — a zinc form specifically used in gut formulas. Fructooligosaccharides (FOS) 100 mg as prebiotic fibre. And a probiotic blend totalling 5 billion CFU: Bacillus coagulans at 3 billion CFU and Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus at 2 billion CFU.
How much should I take?
Two capsules daily with food. The bottle holds 60 servings. Note this formula uses a different capsule base from the rest of our range — hypromellose capsule with rice flour and silicon dioxide.
How is this different from our butyrate salt products?
The form of the butyrate. This SKU uses tributyrin, a triglyceride, yielding 731 mg of butyrate per serving. Our Sodium Butyrate 7-in-1 and Butyrate Complex use salts — sodium, calcium and magnesium butyrate. Salts put a mineral or sodium load on the panel; tributyrin does not. Choose tributyrin if you want to avoid the added sodium or minerals, or if a salt form has not suited you.
