Tackling oxidative stress with phytogenic power
Making energy work where it counts – for performance and resilience
Modern livestock production places growing demands on animals. High performance often comes with increased metabolic pressure, environmental stress and immune challenges. Yet losses in output are not always caused by disease. More often, they result from invisible stressors such as oxidative stress and low-grade inflammation at the cellular level. This is where Anta®Sync comes in.
Where performance starts: supporting metabolic balance
Anta®Sync is a phytogenic feed additive developed to help animals cope with stress more efficiently. Its purpose is to support energy balance and metabolic efficiency – so more energy is available for growth, reproduction or milk production, even under challenging conditions.
Smart formulation, better results: bioavailability built in
The formulation of Anta®Sync combines a particularly high content of secondary plant compounds – primarily polyphenols – with dual solubility. This allows for effective absorption in both lipophilic and hydrophilic environments, from feed to the digestive tract. The result: improved bioavailability, consistent effect, and reliable support under practical farm conditions.
“Improving profitability and resource efficiency means addressing hidden energy losses,” says Dr Viktor Eckel, Managing Director Product and Innovation at Dr. Eckel Animal Nutrition. “Oxidative stress and inflammation drain energy and destabilise production systems. Anta®Sync helps reduce these burdens and supports more resilient animals – a key driver for sustainable, efficient farming.”
Uncover hidden losses, unlock potential
Practical experience confirms the concept: on a dairy farm in northern Germany affected by a bluetongue outbreak, Anta®Sync was added to the feeding strategy after a significant drop in milk yield and quality. The herd recovered noticeably – with stabilised cell counts and milk output, even during a later period of heat stress.
How can phytogenic solutions help reduce energy losses caused by stress – and strengthen performance where it matters?
