Study Design


Intervention

Dietary Supplement:
BKR-017
Nutrient butyrate into a colon-targeted tablet formulation (BKR-017) is intended to stimulate secretion of GLP-1 from L-cells in the lower gut. Butyrate delivered to the colon in tablet form will not cause the side-effects seen with formation of butyrate by fermentation.
