Is Butyrate supposed to smell?Updated a year ago

Yes. We refrain from using any additives or fillers to conceal the natural smell of butyrate. Known for its distinctive odor, butyrate is a compound that the body naturally produces to nourish the cells in the colon. Some gut bacteria generate butyrate through a fermentation process, which doesn't produce the most pleasant scent. However, any substances that might be used to modify butyrate's aroma can potentially hinder its health benefits, and that's why we choose to keep it pure and unaltered.
