What do you consider to be normal digestive health? Is that even a word you’d use to describe an animal’s health? Well Dr. Steve Lerner, senior scientific and business advisor at Chr. Hansen says normal in animals is their ability to achieve their full genetic potential. He explains more about how probiotics help animals reach this normal state.

He says, "The pinnacle for any producer is a herd where 100 percent of animals are healthy and thriving, rendering the hospital pen empty."

The linchpin in achieving this normalcy lies in probiotics, integral in supporting animals' digestive systems in four key ways: aiding nutrient digestion, maintaining a healthy digestive tract for optimal absorption, fortifying barrier functions, and bolstering immune responses. As a result, animals efficiently extract nutrients from feed, optimizing resource allocation towards maintenance, defense, and production of meat, milk, or eggs.
