Butiphorce for Ruminants

Targeted nutritional support for intestinal function


Butiphorce is a target‑release butyric acid source developed to support gut wall health, digestion and performance in ruminants.
Butyric acid is known for its positive effects on intestinal epithelial cells, tight junctions and the immune system of animals.


Butiphorce is formulated as a non‑smelling, easy‑to‑use powder, designed for gradual release throughout the intestinal tract. It can be applied in practical feeding programs for calves and dairy cows where intestinal function and digestive efficiency are critical.

Why Gut Health Matters in Ruminants

In ruminant production, intestinal integrity plays an important role in nutrient utilisation, animal robustness and performance consistency.

A well‑functioning gut wall supports efficient digestion and contributes to stable performance, particularly during early life stages, dietary changes or periods of increased physiological demand.

Targeted nutritional strategies using butyric acid sources are commonly applied to support gut development, digestion and overall performance in ruminants.
