Abstract
Administration of alkoxylated acyl glycerine (AAG) containing lower carboxylic acid acyl moieties to mammalian subjects results in increase of lower carboxylate concentration, particularly in the colon, and may be used to treat such disorders as simple colitis, ulcerative colitis, divertive colitis, colorectal cancer, and other diseases of the gastrointestinal tract where lower carboxylates are implicated. The AAG encourage patient compliance due to substantially no odor, even when butyric acid acyl groups are employed.
