The latest concept in non-antibiotic growth promotion! A novel concept to use curcumin as powder in feed or liquid in drinking water!!!

Non-conventional feed additives for growth promotion is the buzzword in the industry today! Acidifiers, essential oils, pre and probiotics and herbal extracts are all being tried in place of antibiotics with relative success. Here’s a novel concept using CurcuSure – curcumin fortified with curcuminoids, a product from Veesure Naturals.

Curcusure is curcumin fortified with Curcuminoids. Turmeric (Curcuma longa) is a rhizome herb belonging to the Zingiberaceae (Ginger) family. The active substances is Curcumin, Curcuminoids, Aromatic turmerones and alpha and beta turmerones. Curcuminoids have a wide spectrum of biological activities including immunity enhancer, feed attractant, maintain feed quality, antioxidant, anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, anti-protozoal, anti-viral.

For many decades the practice of dietary use of Antibiotics as a growth promoter in commercial poultry production has been followed. Opportunistic pathogens present in the gut/intestinal tract tend to reduce the growth rate of poultry. Antibiotics, also commonly referred to as Antimicrobial Growth Promoters (AGP) act directly on the pathogenic intestinal bacteria. AGPs can get accumulated in the bird’s tissues which will ultimately pass on to humans through the food chain resulting in breakdown of the immune system (Bacterial resistance).
