Betaine, due to its dual biological activity, is a donor of methyl groups and acts as an osmoprotector. When feeding pigs, the main use of the drug is associated with its positive effect on energy absorption, which is especially important at the fattening stage. The presence of Betaine in premixes and concentrates significantly improves the preservation of vitamins, increases the shelf life of compound feeds, concentrates and premixes.

• Protects the intestinal epithelium of the piglet from stress after separation from the sow;
• Increases the energy absorption of the diet during fattening;
• Improves the viability of offspring and the fertility of sows;
• Increases the vitality, appetite and growth rate of piglets.
