USE OF NUTRACEUTICAL FORMULATIONS TO PRODUCE FOOD SUPPLEMENTS FOR THE ANIMAL INDUSTRY, WHICH USE NATURAL SUBSTANCES SUCH AS MINERALS, BOTANICAL PRODUCTS, ESSENTIAL OILS AND VITAMINS WITH BACTERIA AND ENZYMES

摘要

The concentration of the nutraceutical formulation of the present invention is the result of 1 kg of the nutraceutical formulation, per tonne of food for monogastric animals (laying birds, fattening birds, small species, pigs of all ages), as well as for ruminants, and is sufficient to: reduce gastrointestinal diseases by means of a mechanism of competitive action between pathogenic bacteria, optimally developing the enzymatic system and the nutrient-obtaining system, owing to the high activity of the formulation, contained in biotechnological agents, botanical agents, etc., and essential oils of recognised value; significantly reduce feeding costs through improved nutrient availability; optimise the formulations, since the large number of products that are added to formulas are no longer necessary (probiotics, acidifiers, growth promoters, odour inhibitors, non-curative preventative antibiotics, etc.); and dramatically improve the zootechnical production indexes, mainly through the reduction of disease and mortality and sending the animals to market. The use thereof does not require adjustments in the formulation, given that the nutritional value of the ingredients of the composition (enzymes, bacteria, essential oils, inter alia) makes the formulas more efficient, complete and economical. In addition, the producer does not need to buy five or six ingredients separately, especially microorganisms that cause much confusion in food production. Lastly, the type of meat produced is leaner and of a better quality.
