Increase production profitability through a more efficient nutrient uptake

Using a nutrient absorption enhancer like Lysoforte Extend can support piglet performance by increasing feed efficiency and the incidence and severity of post-weaning diarrhoea. The post weaning period for piglets has always been challenging, with variable performance often observed as young piglets adapt to life away from the sow. The rapid change in diet and environment comes at a time when the piglet’s digestive system is still immature and producing far lower levels of gastric enzymes than its adult counterpart. Hence, the ability of piglets to optimally digest nutrients is still insufficient, leading to undigested substrate in the hindgut that causes proliferation of pathogenic bacteria and subsequent diarrhoea.
