Product Description
Long stretches of GI distress from endurance training, or a round of antibiotics for an unrelated infection, can throw off the natural balance of gut flora that keeps your digestive system working the way it should. Thorne's Undecylenic Acid is built to help support for a healthy balance of gut and vaginal flora, delivering a fatty acid your body already produces in trace amounts through sweat, in a concentrated, well-researched dose.
Supports a healthy balance of gut flora – Undecylenic acid has been studied for decades for its role in supporting the balance of microorganisms in the gastrointestinal tract.
A naturally occurring fatty acid – This is the same 11-carbon fatty acid your body produces on its own in sweat, sourced here from castor bean oil rather than manufactured synthetically.
Backed by decades of use – This has been one of Thorne's best-selling products for more than two decades, with research on fatty acids and gut flora balance going back 50 years.
Undecylenic acid (10-undecenoic acid) is an 11-carbon, monounsaturated fatty acid, delivered here in a base of olive oil. Fatty acids in general have a long history of study for their role in supporting a healthy balance of gastrointestinal microorganisms, and undecylenic acid specifically has been researched more than most in this category. The gut and vaginal microbiome are connected, so supporting balance in one area is relevant to the other as well.
How to Use Thorne Undecylenic Acid
Dose: Take five gelcaps two to three times daily, or as recommended by your health-care practitioner.
After a course of antibiotics: Some people use this during or after antibiotic treatment, when gut flora balance tends to be more disrupted than usual, though you should talk to your healthcare provider about timing relative to your specific antibiotic.
