ENERCORE for Show Animals: Frequently Asked Questions

ENERCORE 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.

• As a glucose precursor, this alternative energy feed source serves as a metabolism aid to help improve stress resistance in your animals while also optimizing caloric efficiency.

• A rapid response to stress demands that animals have a readily available glucose source. Glucose fuels not only your animal’s response to stress, but also its immune function, body condition, muscle development, bone strength, and hair quality.

• ENERCORE provides fast, readily-available glucose to help fuel – and sustain – your show animal’s growth and performance.

Yes, ENERCORE energy feed source is a safe, high-quality product for show animals.

• All the individual ingredients contained in the ENERCORE energy feed source are FDA GRAS approved.

• It’s approved for all species, including show pigs, poultry, goats, sheep, cattle, and rabbits.

• Today, ENERCORE is sold in more than 15 countries.

ENERCORE is manufactured in a Safe Feed Safe Food certified facility in the United States.

Yes, ENERCORE can be included on top of traditional energy sources in the diet to help your show animals achieve peak performance.

Feeding ENERCORE on top helps show 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. This occurs 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.
