Mitigate the stress cycle symptoms

  • Suppressed immunity
  • Poor gut health & digestion
  • Impaired liver & kidney function
  • Low meat quality
    (e.g. drip loss, discoloration, wooden breast)
  • Reduced fertility
  • Inferior eggshell quality

Keys to phytogenic efficacy in animal health

  • Reduces oxidative stress
  • Enhances pathogen and toxin resistance
  • Alleviates inflammation
  • Promotes a healthy gut
  • Protects liver and kidneys
  • Stimulates feed efficiency
  • Improves vaccination efficiency

In modern animal production, a multitude of external factors continuously challenge animal health and performance. These challenges range from pathogenic pressure and heat stress to mycotoxin exposure unbalanced diets, high stocking density, … With increasing global restrictions on antibiotic use in animal production, taking away one of the common tools to combat challenges, animal production faces additional challenges in maintaining optimal health status.

The combination of these challenges significantly impacts animal performance – leading to reduced feed efficiency, compromised growth, and diminished product quality, as well as increase veterinary intervention costs – putting additional pressure on farm profitability.

The stress cycle: the silent enemy
PhytoStar® Extra: the gentle savier

External challenges trigger a stress cycle within the animal through two critical physiological processes: oxidative stress and inflammation. These processes frequently occur together in production animals and drive cellular and tissue damage, affecting their overall health and productivity. These processes divert energy and nutrients away from growth and performance, preventing animals from reaching the full potential of their feed formulation. By mitigating the deleterious effects of oxidative stress and inflammation, we can enhance productivity, unlock full feed potential while ensuring the sustainability and efficiency of animal production systems.

The challenge and management of broiler intestinal health in a reduced-antibiotic era

Maintaining intestinal health is a critical challenge in antibiotics-free (ABF) broiler production.

As poultry producers reduce or eliminate antibiotics to meet regulatory requirements and consumer demand, intestinal disorders such as dysbiosis, coccidiosis, and necrotic enteritis are becoming more prevalent. A healthy gut is essential for nutrient absorption, feed efficiency, immune function, and overall bird performance.

In ABF systems, producers must rely on alternative strategies to support gut integrity, including optimized nutrition, biosecurity, vaccination programs, and management practices that promote a balanced gut microbiome.

Monitoring early warning signs, such as litter quality, droppings, and footpad lesions, enables timely intervention, reducing the risk of disease outbreaks and performance losses.

Unraveling the pig’s gut and its disorders

A healthy gut is the cornerstone of swine health, growth, and profitability.

Beyond digestion, the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) acts as the pig’s first line of defense against pathogens and toxins, influencing nutrient absorption, immune function, and overall resilience. Disruptions to gut integrity, commonly known as “leaky gut”, trigger inflammation, reduce feed efficiency, and compromise growth, directly impacting average daily gain (ADG), feed conversion ratios (FCR), and farm profitability.

Modern pig production strategies now focus on safeguarding gut integrity through optimized nutrition, biosecurity, and stress reduction. By prioritizing gut health at every stage, from birth to finishing, producers can minimize disease, enhance growth performance, improve feed efficiency, and secure long-term profitability.

Nurturing the gut: the foundation of healthy calves

The early days of a calf’s life set the stage for lifelong health and productivity.

At this critical stage, the gut is both the engine of growth and the weakest link - highly susceptible to pathogens, nutritional shifts, and management stressors.

Diarrhea remains the leading cause of illness and death in calves, yet reliance on antibiotics is no longer a sustainable solution in the face of rising antimicrobial resistance and regulatory pressure.

By understanding the calf’s unique digestive physiology and the factors that threaten it, producers can shift from reactive treatments to proactive strategies that nurture gut health, reduce disease risk, and secure the future performance of their herds.
