ISSUE FOCUS FEED & ADDITIVE MAGAZINE July 2023 21 Normal physical functions don't work properly anymore, the immune system is weakened and birds become vulnerable to pathogens that they would normally be able to resist. In addition to adjustments in management and housing conditions, additives are invaluable in improving the comfort, health and welfare of animals in high temperatures and ensuring their performance. Here it is particularly important that they are applied accurately and can act quickly. That is why MagPhyt WS was developed. TRIPLE EFFECTIVE AGAINST HEAT STRESS MagPhyt WS helps the birds to cope with the effects of heat stress. The secret behind MagPhyt WS’ fast and reliable relief lies in the unique triple complex of vitamin C, magnesium and selected plant extracts. First of all, vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant that can help to reduce oxidative stress in the body. When birds are exposed to high temperatures, they do not only suffer from heat. Their body also produces more free radicals. Those are real troublemakers which can do a lot of harm to an organism by damaging cells and tissues. This is nothing to trifle with! In chicken, for instance, this can lead to a wide range of symptoms, from severe appetite and weight loss to abnormal or even aggressive behaviour to digestive issues, poor growth and higher susceptibility to illnesses. Vitamin C is among the best agents to help neutralize these free radicals, thereby reducing the risk of cellular damage.
