How to use allicin correctly to feed animals

Here are some key points for using allicin correctly to feed animals:

Choose the appropriate product

      To select garlic extract products with qualified quality and compliance with relevant standards, check their key information such as effective ingredient content and shelf life to ensure that the source is legitimate and reliable.

Determine the applicable animal species

      There are differences in the tolerance and appropriate dosage of allicin among different animals. For example, common livestock and poultry such as pigs, chickens, cows, and sheep, as well as aquatic animals such as fish and shrimp, need to be used accurately according to specific animals.

Grasp the dosage of addition

      Livestock and poultry: Generally, the amount added to feed is calculated per kilogram of feed. Pigs usually add 100-200 milligrams, while chickens usually add 50-150 milligrams. However, adjustments should be made according to the animal's growth stage, health status, etc. Young animals usually have a lower dosage.

      Aquatic animals: Taking fish feed as an example, the addition of about 50-100 milligrams per kilogram of feed and about 80-120 milligrams per kilogram of shrimp feed should also be considered. Factors such as breeding density and water quality should be flexibly adjusted.

Uniform mixing

      Mix allicin thoroughly with feed to prevent uneven feeding and discomfort caused by high local concentrations. Especially in large-scale aquaculture feeding, professional mixing equipment should be used to ensure the mixing effect.

Usage time and frequency

      Can be added to feed in the prescribed amount for a long time to maintain good health and growth performance of animals; It is also possible to increase the dosage appropriately during the high incidence period and stress stage of animals (such as herd switching, transportation, etc.) to prevent diseases and enhance resistance.
Usually, the animals are fed synchronously with the normal feeding frequency every day to ensure regular intake.

Pay attention to compatibility taboos

      Avoid using it together with alkaline substances, as allicin is prone to failure in alkaline environments, affecting its effectiveness; When using other drugs or additives at the same time, it is necessary to first understand whether they will interact before adding them.

Observe animal reactions

      Pay close attention to the animal's feeding, mental state, growth, and other conditions during use. If there are abnormal phenomena such as reduced feeding, mental fatigue, diarrhea, etc., adjust the dosage or stop using it in a timely manner, and consult veterinary professional opinions.
