Betafin Pigs
- Betafin natural betaine is extracted from sustainable sugar beet molasses for use in pig diets
- Produced using a proprietary chromatographic separation process
- Betaine has two important functions in animal nutrition
- Betaine as an osmolyte
- Helps maintain cellular fluid balance
- Improved gut integrity
- Spares metabolic energy
- Betaine as a methyl group donor
- Spares metabolic energy
- Reduces feed costs by replacing some added methionine and all choline chloride supplements as methyl donors
- Research has shown that Betafin natural betaine supports:
- Production performance
- Maintain gut integrity at times of production stress
- Reduces the negative effects of heat stress
- Improved nutrient digestibility
Sows – increased litter size and Increased litter weight at weaning
Weaners – support gut structure and strength
Grower/finishers – increased carcass lean deposition
