I first started (cal/mag)using and noticed improvements all around. I was quite impressed , then those improvements dwindled a bit. So I took a break then started again and noticed some more improvements.
I’m trying to find a good dose. I recommend taking prebiotics and fiber with it. People on another forum said intermittent fasting helps too
I also found a study on reddit saying supplemental butyrate can kill off bacteria that produces butyrate but I think proved this isn’t a fact at least for me, cause when I stopped I could still tell by the way my poops smelled that butyrate was still working .
I think it has been very beneficial at times and not so much at others. Cycling might be key.
Haven’t tried sodium butyrate. I can’t see it being any different.
Edit. Stopped taking cal mag butyrate, could have possibly made me worse. Pretty sure I’ve developed worsening nerve disorders, waking up with numb tingling swollen arms and hands.
Problem seems to be starting in the armpits not allowing blood flow to the rest of my arms.
Maybe carpal tunnel.
