Abstract | Background: Short chain fatty acids (SCFA) are increasingly recognized for their potential ability to alleviate obesity-associated chronic low-grade inflammation and disturbed energy homeostasis. Evidence suggests that an increase in circulating SCFA might be necessary to induce beneficial alterations in energy metabolism. Objective: To compare the bioaccessibility of two different SCFA-enriched triglycerides: Akovita SCT (butyrate and hexanoate esterified with long chain fatty acids) and tributyrin/caproin (solely butyrate and hexanoate) and investigate whether the SCFA from orally administrated Akovita SCT reach the circulation and affect postprandial metabolism in men with overweight/obesity. Methods: The site, speed, and amount of SCFA release from Akovita SCT and tributyrin/caproin were assessed in a validated Results: In TIM-1, tributyrin/caproin was rapidly cleaved in the gastric compartment whereas the release of SCFA from Akovita SCT occurred predominantly in the small intestine. Conclusion: Esterifying SCFA-enriched triglycerides with long chain fatty acids delayed SCFA release from the glycerol backbone. Akovita SCT increased postprandial circulating butyrate and hexanoate without changing metabolic parameters in men with overweight/obesity. Future randomized clinical trials should investigate whether long-term Akovita SCT supplementation can aid in the treatment or prevention of metabolic disorders.
