Cinnamon – pamper your animals especially during cold days

November 22, 2021December 8, 2021

Cinnamon is much more than a spice to be added to your cookies. Despite being popular in EU, Cinnamon had a super long journey from Southeast Asia to Europe in ancient times.

At XVET, we have Cinnacid, with great synergy in between cinnamaldehyde and organic acids. This synergy will help to boost the feed quality and reduce the pathogen pressure in the gut.

Let’s take a look at step-by-step look on how cinnamon can improve animal health.

The two organs that maintain life

September 22, 2020September 23, 2020

The animal body is a complex group of organs and systems working in sync, performing different functions to maintain the whole body healthy. Two organs that play an important role on avian body homeostasis are the liver and the kidney.

In the aim to maintain a healthy organism and align to perfection through harmony, these two important organs have to be taken care of to avoid future problems. XVET’s Metavolin Herbal and Renal Cleaner supports the proper functioning of the liver and the kidney.

Coccidiosis – what now?

April 9, 2019August 30, 2019

Coccidiosis is a great concern.

Coccidia which is a common protozoan in domestic birds and other fowl is capable of developing resistance to antibiotics. Coccidiosis affects global food production causing economic losses that are globally estimated to be around 3 billion $ per year. This loss is caused by different coccidian species such as E. acervulina, E. maxima, and E. tenella., and depending on the species of the Eimeria involved, the infestation increases intestinal problems and causes immunosuppression in poultry flocks all around the world.

In cases of subclinical coccidiosis, production performance, water, and feed intake decreases, and animals will become more vulnerable to other diseases, especially to necrotic enteritis caused by Clostridium perfringens, or Salmonella infections. If not managed properly and necessary actions are not taken, subclinical coccidiosis may develop into clinical coccidiosis. A proper prevention programme against coccidiosis will also help to decrease the linked bacterial problems of the intestinal channel as well.

Life after antibiotics

October 8, 2018August 30, 2019

Life after antibiotics

Antibiotics have been widely used in animal production for many years now, mainly for therapeutic purposes, additionally for prophylaxis, and finally as a growth promoter in sub-therapeutic dosages. In accordance of the Principle 15 of the Rio Declaration of 1992, which arbours the idea, “Where there are threats of serious or irreversible damage, lack of full scientific certainty, shall not be used as a reason for postponing cost-effective measures to prevent environmental degradation”, first the developed European countries such as Sweden, and following that the whole European Union area, have banned the use of antibiotic growth promoters, and also have limited the use of molecules that are relevant to human health, in livestock. Finally this year USA has joined the regulation and as well as Far East countries such as Thailand, Indonesia, etc. also are following a strong projection of decreasing the antibiotic usage in general. This positive approach, of course, brings a certain responsibility of such as improving the biosecurity, enhancing management measures, focusing on nutrition, the handling of the digestive tract, the use of functional additives, whilst most important of them focusing on tissue integrity, immunity, reducing oxidative stress, and also aiming to decrease as much as possible the bacterial load, that will be shed to the environment.

Antimicrobial resistance in the food chain

August 3, 2018August 30, 2019

Antimicrobial resistance in the food chain

Antimicrobial resistance is rising to dangerously high levels in all parts of the world and threatening the ability to treat common infectious diseases. World Health Organization (WHO) shares insights on how Antibiotic Resistance is important in Animal Health and how it develops from Farm-to-Fork.

How does the use of antibiotics in food-producing animals lead to antimicrobial resistance in humans?

The high volume of antibiotics in food-producing animals contributes to the development of antimicrobial-resistant bacteria, particularly in settings of intensive animal production. In some countries, the total amount of antibiotics used in animals is 4 times larger than the amount used in humans. In many countries much of the antibiotics used in animals are for growth promotion and prevention of disease, not to treat sick animals.
