Nutrition Drives Animal Health
Two management strategies productive and profitable beef herds have in common are paying attention to nutritional needs and good animal health programs.
Added value is achieved from feeding Excell™ S.B. by compounding the nutritional and health benefits of Excell with the similar benefits of Micro S.B., a Saccharomyces Cerevisiae Boulardii, in all stages of cattle especially cows and calves in high pathogen challenges, during calving, weaning and feedlot situations.
The Next Generation of Animal Health!
Benefits of Excell™:
Strong Appetite and Feed intake
· Consistent dry matter intake is important for maintaining healthy high performing cattle. Excell™ will help stimulate feed intake of cattle and optimize rumen function by supporting an optimum rumen micro-flora population which is responsible for the fermentation and digestion of feed.
Additional Nutrient Intake to Maintain Strong Immune Function
· Feeding Excell™ will help maintain nutrient intake by sustaining a high population of rumen bacteria and the additional microbial protein produced to stimulate immune function and health.
Additional Growth and Performance Compared to Ionophores
· Three University animal trials and in vitro studies have documented Excell™, an all-natural Lactobacillus fermentation product can replace the antibiotics: Monensin and Lasalocid in beef rations with equal to superior gain and comparable feed efficiency.
Excell™ Supports Rumen Function, Animal Performance and Health
· Excell™ is a lactobacillus fermentation product containing prebiotic components and bioactive metabolytes that support microbial populations in the digestive system of the rumen and intestine.
Benefits of Micro S.B:
Micro S.B. is a high-quality probiotic yeast. Saccharomyces Cerevisiae var. Boulardii (S. Boulardii) has been proven to support animal performance, the immune system, and the intestinal microflora, in multiple species. S. Boulardii can grow in both aerobic and anaerobic conditions, is resistant to bile acids and gastric pH conditions of the intestine.
Multiple Modes of Action S. Boulardii
· modulating the intestinal microbiome, lowering gut pH and prevention of pathogen overgrowth
· production of acetic production and growth of butyrate producers
· antimicrobial activity, immune modulation, enzyme activity and pathogen binding
· competitive inhibition, blocking toxin receptors or acting as a decoy receptor for toxins, adhering to some toxins and pathogens
· immune modulator, increasing anti-inflammatory cytokines, and decreasing pro-inflammatory cytokines
Micro S.B. Helps Calves and Feedlot Cattle
In calves S. Boulardii has been shown to:
· improve dry matter intake, average daily gain, body weight and lower the occurrence of diarrhea at times of stress
· maintain a healthy gut: increased crypt depth, tight junction structure, mucin production and reduced pathogen load (leaky gut issues)
· promote higher antibody titers when vaccinated
In the feedlot, newly received cattle supplemented with S. Boulardii show:
· to have a lower BRD treatment rate for the first 42-45 days on feed
· improved ADG, improved feed to gain ratio, and improved cost of gain for the entire feeding period
· a significant decrease in treatments (32%+), lower cortisol and pro-inflammatory cytokine concentrations when challenged with a pathogen
Micro S.B is approximately 20% more cost effective than competitor products.
Excell™ S.B. is a winning combination to compound value for your operation's nutritional needs and animal health programs.
