Tesseract AuRx®

Autism Spectrum Disorder Medical Food

AuRx™ is a revolutionary new medical food specially formulated to support the altered gut-brain imbalance found in many Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) patients.

Autism Spectrum Disorder patients are at high risk for microbiome imbalances where fiber metabolism produces abnormally high amounts of the short chain fatty acid, Propionic Acid and insufficient levels of beneficial Butyric Acid.* High levels of Propionate cross the gut-blood-brain barrier creating a toxic environment impacting brain development and function.* GI symptoms from this imbalance can overlap with ASD symptoms such as alterations in behavior, cognition, language impairment and sleep disturbance.*

AuRx® effectively replenishes the inadequate Butyric Acid supplies, thereby reducing Propionic Acid production and toxicity supporting gut-brain balance.*

AuRx Key Features

  • Stabilized Butyric Acid Complex

  • Palatable taste optimizes patient compliance

  • Superior solubility, bioavailability, and maximum absorption

  • Strategic SCFA delivery to the intestinal tract in single-molecule form

  • Provides specific nutritional requirements for ASD patients with SCFA gut microbiome deficiencies*

Butyric Acid / Butyrate

Butyric acid is a short chain fatty acid (SCFA) generated by enteric bacteria following fermentation of insoluble fiber and carbohydrates. Insufficient SCFA production in the gut due to intestinal dysbiosis, stress, medications, and other factors can lead to numerous systemic conditions. Emerging evidence suggests those with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) often present with gastrointestinal and immune derangements, inflammation, oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, and a history of exposure to environmental toxicants. Over 70% of children with ASD present with gastrointestinal issues. SCFAs directly affect the host digestive tract via epigenetic modulation of ASD-associated genes and act as major energy substrates for colonocytes. Research has shown some aspects of ASD may improve with butyrate supplementation. Unfortunately, many currently-available SCFA products have an unpalatable taste and strong odor, complicating patient compliance.

The AuRx Difference

AuRx™, a revolutionary new medical food, has been specially formulated to support the gut-brain immune imbalance found in many ASD patients. Now, thanks to Tesseract’s revolutionary delivery technology, an unpalatable, yet metabolically critical substance such as butyric acid, with all its documented health benefits, becomes a therapeutic reality.

What is a medical food?

A medical food is not a drug. A medical food is intended for patients who have a condition that results in a specific nutritional need which cannot be met by a diet of regular food, but is met by the medical food. AuRx is a medical food. FDA GRAS Approved (Generally Recognized As Safe). AuRx should be administered under the supervision of a physician. AuRx does not contain: Gluten, Nuts, Egg, Metallic Colorants, Lactose, Sterates, Preservatives, and Banned Substances.
