Functions: Partial replacement of methionine and choline, food attractant, growth promoter, breeder, anti-stress, antioxidant, meat quality improvement, egg quality enhancement.
1.Partly replace methionine and choline
2.Promote growth and reproduction,
3.Methyl donor
4.Regulate osmotic pressure
5.Adjust immune system
6.Improve the quality of meat and egg
7.Induce fish and shrimp to eat
8.Anti-stress
In broiler nutrition, typically choline and methionine are replaced with betaine. Adding betaine will lead to reduced feed costs, and improved growth and feed conversion ratio. Additional benefits are found in improved slaughter characteristics (more breast meat yield and less abdominal fat), preventing heat stress, and promoting better resistance towards coccidiosis.
Betaine shows positive effects during heat stress. Rectal temperatures decrease with increasing doses of betaine in both dairy cattle and sheep. Also, betaine improves the antioxidant status with increased plasma cortisol, glutathione peroxidase, superoxide dismutase, and malondialdehyde levels when betaine is supplemented to dairy cattle diets.
