The Science behind Digestarom® Finish

A healthy digestive tract is a prerequisite for overall animal health and performance. It not only affects the absorption and utilization of nutrients, but also has considerable influence on the animal’s immune system. Under the conditions of poor digestion, excessive amounts of nutrients are available for pathogenic bacteria to rapidly multiply in the digestive tract, which may easily result in enteric imbalances. Therefore, gut-friendly feeding is essential for promoting animal well-being and performance.

Due to its balanced and rounded flavor, Digestarom® enhances the palatability of livestock diets, thus encouraging feed intake. Furthermore, Digestarom® influences digestion and absorption of dietary nutrients, supporting nutrient digestibility.

The phytogenic blend of essential oils and other compounds in Digestarom® were thoroughly investigated for their anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antimicrobial and immune supportive properties.
