What are the advantages of yeast hydrolysate compared to other immune enhancers?

Yeast hydrolysate, as an immune enhancer, has certain advantages in terms of composition, safety, and efficacy compared to other immune enhancers, as follows:

Nutritious and comprehensive: Yeast hydrolysate is rich in various nutrients and bioactive substances such as protein, amino acids, small peptides, nucleotides, B vitamins, β - glucan, and mannan. Compared with some single component immune enhancers (such as certain polysaccharide immune enhancers containing only specific polysaccharide components), yeast hydrolysate can provide nutritional support to the body from multiple perspectives, meeting the multiple nutrients required for the growth, differentiation, and function of immune cells, and regulating the immune system more comprehensively. For example, amino acids are the basic raw materials for synthesizing immune active substances such as immunoglobulin, B vitamins participate in the metabolic process of immune cells, and nucleotides are crucial for the proliferation and repair of immune cells.

High biological activity and diverse effects: Polysaccharides such as β - glucan and mannan in yeast hydrolysates have high biological activity, which can not only activate immune cells such as macrophages and natural killer cells, enhance non-specific immune function of the body, but also regulate specific immune responses, such as promoting antibody production. Compared with some chemically synthesized immune enhancers, the bioactive components of yeast hydrolysate come from natural yeast, with a milder mode of action that is more in line with the physiological regulation mechanism of the body. It also has multiple physiological functions such as antioxidant and anti-inflammatory, and has a positive impact on the overall health of the body.

Good safety: Yeast hydrolysate is a natural product obtained by hydrolyzing yeast, with natural, non-toxic, and residue free ingredients. Compared with some chemically synthesized immune enhancers (such as certain hormones or antibiotic immune enhancers, long-term use may lead to drug residues, drug resistance, and other issues), yeast hydrolysate is safer to use and will not have adverse effects on animal and human health or the environment. It is more in line with the requirements of green and safe farming and food production.

Good palatability: Yeast hydrolysate has a unique flavor and good attractant properties for animals. Adding yeast hydrolysate to feed can not only enhance animals' immunity, but also increase their feed intake and promote their growth and development. And some immune enhancers (such as certain herbal extracts, which may have special odors or flavors that affect animals' willingness to eat) may affect the palatability of feed, leading to a decrease in animal feed intake.

High stability: The chemical properties of yeast hydrolysate are relatively stable, and it is not easily destroyed during feed processing (such as high-temperature granulation, storage, etc.), which can maintain its immune enhancing activity. In contrast, some immune enhancers (such as certain enzyme immune enhancers, which are sensitive to environmental conditions such as temperature and pH and are prone to deactivation) may decrease or lose their activity during feed processing and storage, affecting their effectiveness.

High cost-effectiveness: Yeast is a common and easy to cultivate microorganism, with a wide range of raw material sources for producing yeast hydrolysates and relatively low production costs. In practical applications, compared with some expensive immune enhancers (such as some imported biological products), yeast hydrolysate has higher cost-effectiveness, which can reduce breeding and production costs and improve economic efficiency while ensuring immune enhancement effect.
