                                Over 95% of the short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) in the human gut are composed of three primary molecules: acetate, propionate, and butyrate. These tiny organic acids are the valuable metabolic byproducts created when your gut microbiota ferments dietary fiber and other non-digestible carbohydrates.
