The quality
of commercial and companion animal feeds depends on the quality of
the ingredients. Not only are antibiotics
eliminated
from commercial
animal products, but companion animal feeds are being formulated to
provide optimal health. FortiFeed has been shown to enhance animal
growth and health, and may be an ideal addition for those motivated
to avoid or limit the use of antibiotics as growth agents, and for
those looking to enhance companion animal health. |
Superior Stability
FortiFeed is stable in most processing conditions at a wide range of temperatures and pH, making it ideal for an extensive array of applications. |
|
No Maillard Reaction
Since the prebiotic molecules of FortiFeed are not reducing sugars, it does not participate in the Maillard reaction, and will not react with protein during processing. This ensures protein quality and availability. |
|
Outstanding Solubility and Dispersion
Highly soluble and dispersible, FortiFeed is ideal for liquid or dry formulations. FortiFeed also remains soluble in water and does not cause the excessive viscosity or gelling common to other fibers. |
|
Ideal for Reduced Calorie Formulations
Recommended for use in calorie-modified products, FortiFeed enhances the characteristics of special dietary feeds and increases acceptability. FortiFeed provides only 1.5Kcal/gram, independent of carbohydrate metabolism, adds fiber and contributes to overall calorie reduction in any formulation. |
|
Enhances Palatability
FortiFeed has a clean, mildly sweet taste, and since it is 30 percent as sweet as sugar, it improves palatability. FortiFeed also has the ability to successfully mask the off-notes of a variety of feed inputs, which positively impacts feed acceptability and consumption. |
|
Easy to Use
FortiFeed requires no refrigeration, has a long shelf-life and is extremely simple to incorporate and use. Its many benefits are easy to realize with virtually no processing modifications as FortiFeed can be added directly to dry ingredients or mixed with liquids. |
|
Low Impact on Viscosity
FortiFeed is highly soluble and although it can contribute to mouthfeel and texture in many applications, FortiFeed does not build significant viscosity at typical use rates. |
