Animals in modern farming are bred for optimal growth and production. This puts a lot of pressure on animals causing sub-optimal health conditions. Providing animals with MCT allows for increased in energy providence. MCT is quickly absorbed by the animal compared to LCT.
As there is increasing demands for leaner and less fatty meat, MCT comes into action as it not only provides energy to the animals but also allows for production of leaner meat, fitting consumers demands. Besides that, it is also antibacterial and antioxidative, preventing the occurrence of infection and inflammation.
Water troughs are where bacteria can spread quickly can be detrimental to animal health. In fact, diseases can be spread through drinking sources much faster than it can be spread through feed. Although high hygienic standards can be kept, it is difficult to keep drinking sources pathogen-free. Making use of MCT’s antibacterial properties can allow for safer drinking sources.
