ENERCORE For Livestock: Frequently Asked Questions
-
ENERCORE energy feed source from Biosen contains a mixture of substrates (including amino acids, glycols, and propionates) and co-factors that help animals stimulate and enhance energy (glucose) production through a metabolic process called gluconeogenesis.
-
Yes, the ENERCORE energy feed source from Biosen is a safe, quality product.
ENERCORE is manufactured in a Safe Feed Safe Food certified facility in the United States.
All the individual ingredients contained in the ENERCORE energy feed source are FDA GRAS approved.
ENERCORE is backed by 50 years of global animal nutrition and health expertise.
Today, ENERCORE energy feed source is sold in more than 15 countries, giving you peace of mind that it is safe to feed and can help improve animal performance in your animals.
ENERCORE energy feed source can safely be included in many different animal diets. For example: broilers, turkeys, layers, pigs, dairy cattle, beef cattle, horses, fish, shrimp, sheep, goats, deer, elk, gamebirds, and show animals.
-
ENERCORE can either replace or be fed on top of traditional energy sources.
ENERCORE energy feed additive spares up to 35 kcal ME per pound of energy in diets, allowing you to replace expensive traditional energy sources without compromising animal performance or health.
ENERCORE can also be included on top of traditional energy sources in your livestock or other animal feed to help animals achieve peak performance. Feeding ENERCORE on top helps high-producing, high-performance animals respond to different stressors by supplying metabolic glucose (through gluconeogenesis), which allows animals to maintain consistent blood glucose levels.
-
Energy is essential for animal performance and health. While carbohydrates and fats are the main dietary compounds animals metabolize to generate energy, animals can also efficiently and effectively generate energy (glucose) through a metabolic pathway called gluconeogenesis when certain non-carbohydrates – including fats (lipids) and proteins – are metabolized.
ENERCORE energy feed source is a glucose precursor that serves as a metabolism aid in animal diets. It contains a proprietary mix of substrates (including amino acids, glycols, and propionates) and co-factors that provide glucose precursors and generate energy through gluconeogenesis.
These dietary substrates and co-factors help animals optimize energy metabolism from other dietary ingredients by facilitating greater ATP (adenosine triphosphate) energy production from gluconeogenesis.
-
ENERCORE is an energy metabolism aid, regardless of the dietary formulation.
It is NOT an enzyme or emulsifier (a digestive aid that improves energy digestibility).
-
ENERCORE is an affordable energy feed source that helps your animals optimize caloric efficiency and improve performance while also helping you decrease your feed costs.
Spares up to 35 Kcal ME per pound of energy in diets so that you can replace expensive traditional energy sources
Reduces feed formulation costs by using alternative feed ingredients that are less expensive and have a lower energy density
Decrease the potential risk of costly metabolic disorders in your flock or herd that can occur when high levels of fat cause ketones to build up
Decreases feed milling & storage challenges - lower fat or oil content in feed means better pellet binding quality, less variation in oil quality, and lower milling costs due to recycling of fines
Decreases dietary fat inclusion level by ~2 percentage points, so you have less risk of poor-quality fat problems and better pellet durability
