Why BUTIFOUR®
Modern animal production has undergone dramatic changes
over the last 50-60 years: genetic selection for high growth rates, as well as
improved management and nutrition strategies, have led to increased performance
standards. However, in the near future, animal performance could reach a
ceiling due to genetic and physiological limits. As the intestine is the most
important organ to convert feed into meat, it is no secret that the expression
“animal gut health” has entered the collective consciousness and has become the
standard of animal industries and research.
Gut health in animal production
For years, the
correlation of failing gut health with discouraging zootechnical results and
intestinal diseases in animal production has been clear. In addition, the
genetic potential of our modern production animals allows them to grow faster,
providing them with a minimum of feed. Obviously, the well-functioning of the
intestinal tract plays an essential role in optimizing this genetic potential.
A lot of research has been conducted to identify the role of the gut: risk
factors, as well as some key molecules supporting intestinal health, have been
identified. One of these well described key molecules boosting animal gut
health is butyric acid, explaining the interest of Impextraco® in developing a
intestinal health enhancement product based on butyrates:
