Optimal intestinal flora:
What is Intesti-Flora®?
Intesti-Flora® is a liquid supplement for an optimal intestinal flora. It is based on copper chelates and organic acids, including lactic, propionic and sorbic acid. It also contains prebiotics in the form of fructooligosaccharides. Administer Intesti-Flora® to ensure a good intestinal function during start-up, before and after feed changes, after vaccinations and to support protein digestion in the gastrointestinal tract.
The first weeks are crucial for ensuring that chicks have a healthy and productive life. A well-developed and properly functioning intestine influences the ability to absorb nutrients and to grow efficiently. In addition, the intestine influences the chick’s ability to protect its body against diseases. The microbiota in the gut plays an essential role in this. Healthy gut microflora supports functions such as digestion and resistance against pathogens. Malabsorption Syndrome (MAS) is a commonly occurring intestinal problem. This multifactorial disorder is caused by infections in the gastrointestinal tract resulting in a low growth rate and lesions in the small intestine. The unique composition of Intesti-Flora® has a positive influence on the health of gut flora. Using Intesti-Flora® leads to a healthy gut that is resistant to potential pathogenic bacteria and able to absorb nutrients efficiently.
When to use?
Mode of action
Copper plays an important role in various physical processes, making it an essential trace element. Several studies have shown that supplementing copper leads to improved health and growth in poultry and copper also has interesting antimicrobial properties. The copper in the Intesti-Flora® is bound to a chelate. Copper chelates have an advantage over other forms of the element because binding into a chelate ensures better absorption, especially in the intestine.
