Special Nutrients gives the code to enter in Lamic

A few days ago, Engormix published the news that LAMIC created a space in their website for buyers of Anti-Mycotoxin Additives (AMA) to verify if a manufaturer of this type of product have been approved, for what specie and for which mycotoxin. The companies that have their products approved will have their own individual code to obtain access to such information.

It is important to recall that the government of Brazil is the only one in the world that has scientifically legislated the approval of of Anti-Mycotoxin Additives (AMA) with in vivo studies to PROTECT the consumer. The studies must prove that the product has efficacy on the TARGET ORGAN that the mycotoxin affects. There are many products that have no efficacy and/or mask the effect caused by mycotoxins and are only improving the inmmune system and/or having a growth promotor effect that is reflected in better productivity parameters but have no protection on the TARGET ORGAN.

The code for SPECIAL NUTRIENTS is:

Senha: Specialist (Note: the S has to be in capital letter)
