The digestive tracts of livestock animals are far from efficient at extracting nutrition from their feed. For example, swine and poultry cannot digest approximately one-fourth of the feed they are grown on because the feed contains indigestible components that hinder the digestive process. The root problem is that the digestive systems of these animals are devoid of the enzymes needed to breakdown the indigestible components in the feed.
DIGESTI-ZYME© – This unique blend of enzymes allows livestock to extract the maximum amount of nutrition from feed.
Supplementation of feed with enzymes enhances its digestibility, thereby increasing the overall nutritive value of the feed. Animal feed enzymes help break down tough plant fiber, phytate, and other copolymers that are naturally occurring in various feed ingredients. The presence of these compounds in feed results in decreased meat, milk, and egg production and leads to the wasting of large amounts of feed over time. This situation can also cause digestive disturbances in livestock and lead to unnecessarily high animal waste production.
Through the use of these exogenous enzymes previously wasted feed portions can be rendered useful allowing animal feed manufacturers and end-users to get significantly more value out of their existing feed by simply supplementing it with DIGESTI-ZYME©
