INTERVIEW 70 FEED & ADDITIVE MAGAZINE October 2024 With Proviox™ 50, farmers and feed mills can replace up to 50% of the vitamin E in feed formulations. This is possible because scientifically proven blend of polyphenols in Proviox™ 50 supports the scavenging function and helps to regenerate vitamin E in the body, thus helping to protect the cells from free radical damage. Using this broader blend of antioxidants means that we can reduce the vitamin E in the diet, which in turn reduces the formulation costs, whilst maintaining performance. These benefits are not only backed by science and proven by research, but we have had more than 10 years of success in the global market with Proviox™ 50. The application of Proviox™ 50 is also precise. Our Proviox™ 50 calculator tool can determine the exact dosage rates for each species and takes account of multiple factors, such as vitamin E inclusion levels and feeding and growth phases. How does this support reproduction across different species? During reproductive stages, animals experience increased metabolic stress, which impacts their oxidative status. Proviox™ 50 helps support animals during gestation, promoting healthier, more resilient offspring and improved reproductive outcomes.
