The benefits of choline chloride added to animal feed
Chicken feed contains a certain amount of choline chloride, which can also be synthesized in the body. As the age increases, its synthesis ability increases. And the demand for choline in chickens increases, especially for chicks. The synthesis speed cannot meet the needs of growth and development. If you do not pay attention to adding it, it is prone to deficiency.
Choline is synthesized in the liver. Vitamin B12, methionine and folic acid play an important role in the synthesis of choline. Therefore, when poultry suffers from liver disease or the feed contains insufficient vitamin B12, methionine and folic acid, it can also cause choline deficiency. In addition, the raw materials for the synthesis of choline in the liver are methionine and serine. If the choline level in the feed is appropriate, methionine does not need to be used as the raw material for the synthesis of choline. Because choline is very cheap, adding choline in an appropriate amount can not only save methionine, but it is also more economical.
The requirement of choline is related to the energy concentration of the diet. When fed high-energy and high-fat diets, on the one hand, the chicken's feed intake is reduced, and the intake of choline is insufficient; on the other hand, the liver needs more choline to synthesize lipoproteins to transport fat in the liver.
Vitamin B2 and B5 are related to the use of choline in the body. When they are lacking, it will cause choline utilization barriers, and similar choline deficiency will appear.
