Article Summary:
- Gut health supplements can be broadly categorized into probiotics, prebiotics, and postbiotics.
- Gut health supplement formulations are a suitable alternative to a high fiber-rich diet, mainly when certain health conditions restrict such intake.
- Tesseract’s revolutionary CyLoc® – DexKey® nutrient delivery technology enables optimal absorption of active nutrients in gut health supplement formulations.
The diversity of gut microbiota — the microorganisms that colonize our digestive tract – largely determines our gastrointestinal health. The gut microbiome has been closely associated with influencing the immune health and the nervous system and playing a critical role in metabolic function. While a balanced diet maintains the gut microbiota in optimal condition, gut health supplements can help fill any nutritional gaps.
So, how do gut health supplements work, and are they worth including in your diet? Let’s look at the working mechanism of different gut health supplements and some innovative gut health supplement formulations developed by Tesseract Medical Research to promote your gastrointestinal health.*
How Do Gut Health Supplements Work?
Gut health supplements can be broadly categorized into probiotics, prebiotics, and postbiotics. The following table highlights the supplements’ functions and working mechanisms and how they promote gastrointestinal health.

It is well-known that a diet rich in fiber and fermented milk products supports gastrointestinal function. However, certain health conditions can restrict the required intake of fiber or fermented products. Gut health supplements are a suitable alternative to maintain the diversity of the gut microbiome.
It is worth noting, however, that commercially available gut health supplements work when they are formulated for optimal solubility and absorption.
Tesseract’s Supplement Formulations For Optimal Gut Health
The revolutionary CyLoc® – DexKey® nutrient delivery technology developed by Tesseract Medical Research enables enhanced bioavailability of plant-derived compounds conventionally known for poor absorption. The proprietary CyLoc® technology isolates each active nutrient molecule in a dextrin fiber matrix, creating nano-sized particles that are easily absorbed. The accompanying DexKey® technology releases active ingredient molecules at the desired point in the intestinal tract.
The following table highlights Tesseract’s three gut health supplements containing the smart delivery system that enhances the active ingredients’ palatability, bioavailability, and absorption.

AuRx® |
A gold-standard medical food developed to support the gut-brain axis in autistic children. The hypoallergenic formulation contains a stabilized butyric acid complex to address GI disturbances associated with behavioral problems in autistic children. |
BiomeAide SR® |
A blend of plant isolate extracts, terpenes, and oils from ginger, cinnamon, citronella, orange, lavender, bitter orange, clove, oregano, thyme oil, and marjoram oil. This proprietary complex establishes a well-balanced microbiome and promotes healthy GI function.* |
ProButyrate® |
A natural butyric acid proprietary complex that stabilizes the gut microbiome, ensuring palatability and maximum absorption to exert positive health benefits.* |
With the nanomolecular nutrient delivery technology, Tesseract’s gut health supplements enable individual nutrient molecules to become a bioavailable therapeutic reality.
The power of Tesseract supplements lies in enhancing palatability, maximizing absorption and bioavailability, and nano-dosing multiple nutrients in a single, highly effective capsule. Shop products on our website and learn more about how they can help support gastrointestinal health.*
