Are your show animals prepared to overcome show circuit stress, fast?
It lurks around every corner when you are on the show circuit.
Transportation
Hot weather
Immune and disease challenges
Intermittent feeding
Off-feed events
Changes in diet and water
Stress is Inevitable
Stress events trigger a spike your show animal’s need for glucose - the fast, readily available form of energy their bodies need to create, maintain, and store to respond rapidly to stress.
Stress Triggers the Need for Glucose
When animals don’t have enough readily available glucose and can’t rapidly generate it, they can experience an energy performance gap.
This happens when the body starts to draw energy from muscle tissue instead, leading to loss of muscle and body condition, and loss of appetite as well.
The Energy Performance Gap
Why your show animals may struggle to respond rapidly to stress
Converting energy costs energy.
This simple truth lies at the center of the energy performance gap many animals experience on the show circuit, as the stress from hauling, heat, immune challenges, and potential off-feed events adds up.
Traditional dietary nutrients found in today’s show feed diets, including fats, carbohydrates, and proteins, each require long and complex metabolic pathways to convert dietary nutrients into glucose (metabolic energy), which is the form of energy animals need to respond.
These long, complex energy conversion processes cause your animals to experience glucose shortages, resulting in the energy performance gap.
Fortunately, there is another way animals can generate energy from dietary nutrients – a metabolic pathway known as gluconeogenesis. It is less commonly used in feed additives but is more effective and efficient.
Gluconeogenesis creates glucose by metabolizing certain non-carbohydrates – including fats and proteins.

How Your Champions Can Directly Create and Sustain Energy
ENERCORE, an energy feed source from Biosen, is an alternative energy source for your animals that utilizes the gluconeogenesis pathway.
ENERCORE contains the precise, balanced blend of nutrients your champions need to create fast, consistent, and sustainable energy directly.
• Substrates (Amino acids, glycols, and propionates)
• Co-factors
These dietary substrates and co-factors help animals stimulate and enhance energy (glucose) production through the metabolic process called gluconeogenesis.
Glucose Precursor
Supplies a fast, readily available source of metabolic glucose that helps animals respond to stress.
Increase Stress Resistance
Increase stress resistance by efficiently stimulating and enhancing energy production without compromising performance or health.
Optimize Caloric Efficiency
Enhances energy metabolism efficiency, helping animals maintain consistent blood glucose levels.
