Butter is the butterfat. Ghee takes this process a step further. In traditional Indian and East Asian cooking, ghee has been a go-to for centuries. The fat and vitamin content is almost the same.

But so does butter. Dairy products contain a compound called butyrate, which is a type of short-chain fatty acid. Butyrate is the main energy source for the cells that line your colon and helps them regenerate. This process is important for colon health and digestion. These foods help your body ramp up the production of short-chain fatty acids.
