- The Problem
Optimal gut health is of vital importance to the performance of production animals. Gut health is synonymous in animal production industries with animal health. Unhealthy gastrointestinal tract may negatively impact nutrient digestion and absorption, reduce productive performance which lead to increase feed cost, which accounts for 70% of total production cost. In most animal production, the transition to adulthood typically means change of diet and exposure to new environment which usually cause an abrupt stress that affects the normal gastrointestinal development. These generates important changes in its structure and functionality, mainly the small intestine and microbial imbalance in the gut, leading to undesirable effects such as reduced feed intake, a consequential reduction in growth rate, and increased susceptibility digestion problems and pathogenic infections

Technical Details & Test Data
- Mechanism of Action for OceaControl™
OceaControl™ induces changes in the histomorphology of the small intestine, a significant increase in villus heights and crypt depths have been observed. OceaControl™ protects the intestinal epithelium by controlling the inflammation process via NF-KB mechanism. Healthy gut microbiota aids a healthier turnover of intestinal epithelial cells and reduced inflammation caused by pathogens and toxins.
