Reports are voluntary and unverified — they record what someone experienced while taking something, not what the compound caused. Counts skew towards products people take a lot of, and a serious outcome is more likely to be reported than a mild one, so these are not rates. How we filter them →

What else affects it

Beyond other supplements
!
Excessive sugar

High sugar feeds pathogenic bacteria competing with probiotics

Promotes harmful bacteria growth

How it works

  • Strengthens gut barrier through tight junction protein enhancement
  • Promotes regulatory T-cell development and immune tolerance
  • Produces anti-inflammatory metabolites like butyrate and acetate
  • Competes with pathogenic bacteria reducing inflammatory triggers
  • Modulates dendritic cell function and antigen presentation
  • Enhances mucus production and antimicrobial peptide secretion

Key findings

what the evidence supports
  • Significant benefits for inflammatory bowel disease management
  • Promising results for autoimmune disease prevention and treatment
  • Essential for gut barrier function and immune system development
  • Generally safe with minimal serious adverse events
