WHY PROTEK WORKS

The science behind the ‘all round three in one supplement’

ONE OF OUR SCIENTISTS

Just one of our top scientists we have behind us at K & V and is our consultant for PROTEK. Dr James Tang, a veterinary immunologist developed an innovated process which can keep 95% allicin after process and this technology has been widely used in animal feeding industry since 2010. Also lecturer at Microbiology & Immunology Dept. Veterinary College of NanJina Agricultural University during 1987 to 1992.

A BIT ABOUT THE HORSE DIGESTIVE TRACT

In general, there are five types of microbes:

– Cellulolytic bacteria: Digestion of fibre
– Proteolytic bacteria: Break down of proteins
– Lactic acid-producing bacteria: Digestion of starch
– Protozoa: Produce volatile fatty acids
– Fungi/yeasts: Break down fibre
– Other bacteria: Produce B-vitamins

DIGESTION SUPPLEMET 3 IN 1 PROTEK ALL ROUND SUPPLEMENT

These microbes are actually found throughout the entire digestive tract. But, because most favour a pH-neutral environment, nearly all inhabit low digestive tract, the cecum and colon.

The goal of microbial balance involves keeping the numbers of cellulolytic high and the lactic-acid producers low. Further, as cellulolytic bacteria produce volatile fatty acids, the proliferation of pathogenic bacteria, like E. coli or salmonella, cannot occur. If the lactic acid-producing bacteria population starts growing, they produce enough lactic acid to influence the pH of the gut, making it less hospitable for cellulolytic bacteria and more agreeable for the pathogenic bacteria. This is when problems may arise. How tolerant an animal is to changes in the pH before problems begin can be highly individual.

Balance is all about population control. When there is an overload of one kind of substrate that one type of bacteria digests, then there is a population explosion of that type of bacteria. This affects the populations of the other types of bacteria, since they have less substrate to digest and the by-product of the digestion of the booming population may make the environment less habitable for the rest of the microbials. Shifts in the bacterial populations can cause digestive upset.

ALLICIN TO KEEP THE BALANCE

A normal high-forage diet (lots of pasture and/or hay) will supply the microbes with exactly what they are looking for to maintain balance, particularly the cellulolytic bacteria, protozoa, and fungi. Allicin is one of most high potency in antimicrobial activity and, what’s amazing is that allicin is much less sensitive benefit micro orgasms compared to pathogenic bacteria, like E. coli or salmonella. Allicin can maintain the best balance of horse gut microbial populations. 

Allicin is from garlic but most garlic on the market do not contain much allicin due to high-temperature process. Dr. James Tang, a veterinary immunologist developed an innovated process which can keep 95% allicin after process and this technology has been widely used in animal feeding industry since 2010 

ANOTHER ONE OF OUR INGREDIENTS

Cinnamon oil in special microencapsulated format and works with allicin to work together syngically in the horses gut and provide optimal balanced microbial population in the equine digestive tract.

Cinnamon oil is one of the most powerful natural antimicrobial activities in all essential oils and the same as allicin, cinnamaldehyde, main activity compound in cinnamon oil is much less sensitive to benefit microorganisms compared to pathogenic bacteria, like E. coli or salmonella.
