D at optimal levels to support muscle deposition, immune function and bone retention. Fattening swine are exposed to numerous challenges (exposome) that affect post-absorptive metabolism, nutrient partitioning and immune competency. This resulting adaptation in metabolism may affect protein balance (proteolysis vs proteosynthesis), amino-acids requirements (quantitatively and qualitatively), and micronutrient requirements such as vitamin D, which can compromise muscle deposition, bone mineralization and immune competency. Macro and micro nutrition must be reviewed and adapted with the support of new robust and practical tools like Verax™ DBS Analytics that helps nutritionists, vets and farmers to identify the best approach and solutions to manage optimal muscle deposition, immune competency and bone health.
