🔍 Understanding Feed Conversion Rate (FCR) in Swine Production 🔍 Feed Conversion Rate (FCR) is a critical measure of efficiency in swine production, indicating how effectively pigs convert feed into body mass. A lower FCR means better efficiency, translating to cost savings and improved profitability. Several factors influence FCR, including genetics, diet, health status, and management practices. By optimizing these factors, producers can enhance FCR, ensuring sustainable and productive operations. Learn more about how ileitis vaccination may help you to improve FCR and boost your farm's performance. 🌐 Learn more: https://lnkd.in/euPdv-Cp #SwineHealth #MSDAnimalHealth #FeedConversionRate #SwineEfficiency #IleitisVaccination

Is a ketogenic diet good for people with multiple sclerosis? A ketogenic diet is one that is high in fat, moderate in protein and low in carbohydrates. Animal studies have suggested that it may be beneficial in multiple sclerosis, but little is known about whether a ketogenic diet is suitable for people with MS. This study, carried out by American researchers, tested whether people with MS would tolerate a ketogenic diet and how it might affect them.

Incorporating glucose oxidase (GOx) into swine diets represents a forward-thinking approach to enhancing animal wellness and operational sustainability. This enzyme catalyzes glucose transformation, significantly benefiting gut health and promoting a shift toward antibiotic-free practices. It effectively degrades anti-nutritional factors in feed, maintains quality consistency, and enhances nutrient bioavailability. Additionally, it lowers feed viscosity, improves feces quality, and supports intestinal health, leading to reduced disease incidence and bolstered growth rates. Glucose oxidase stands as a pivotal tool in advancing swine nutrition, ensuring healthier livestock and optimized production efficiencies. Supported by: Wuhan Sunhy Biology Co., Ltd.
