Phytobiotics: an Alternative to Antibiotic Growth Promoters
Published:July 4, 2014
Summary
The use of antibiotic growth promoters (AGPs) in animal production began half a century ago, when Stokstad and Jukes added residues of chlortetracycline production to chicken feed. They were added with the objective to serve as a source of vitamin B12, but they caused a growth stimulation that was far too large to be explained only as a vitamin effect. The almost obvious ca...
Oregano has good results and is expensive. Paramount Aromachem India is producing Carvacrol fro D-limonene( Orange Oil ) . This is 99.6% pure and is also the main active in Oregano Oil.
paramount have introduce Oregano 75 which is a blend of Carvacrol , Paracymene, Thymol to produce a blend close to odour and Flavour of Natural Oregano. The savings will be quite marked
I would like to hear of any views on Synthesised carvacol vs natural Carvacrol. Are there any other factors in Oregano other than Carvacrol that are more effective in combatting bacteria ?
its the latest topic in poultry feed industry.But can anybody explain which is more effective organic acids vs essential oils vs herbs?and can any user explain that the quality of these products lot to lot?
A novel topic I was not aware untll know about its potential usage in the poultry industry. My understanding in this area is limited. Probably more studies need to be conducted to understand the underlying mechanisms. A lot of studies have been conducted in humans to in phytobiotics in relation to its effect on cancer some of the findings could be used as a starting point to explain the underlying mechanisms.
I am raising and breeding game chicken. I am retiring from the judiciary next year and will be concentrating in farming, particularly, raising and breeding game birds. I am interested in buying essential oils for my game birds. I have tried almost all antibiotics available in the local market but I've never been satisfied in the over-all result in the use thereof, Lately, I tried applying commercial growth promoters advertized to enhance growth for children. I noticed improvement in the height of my game birds. Height is also might in cockfighting because the longer the legs of a bird, the longer the reach,(with balance and proportion of course).
I want to try phytobiotics. Could anybody help secure good source of its processed product.

This is the safest way forward. Natural and organic sources of antibiotics have more phytochemicals than already discovered. Synthetics will always have their limitations.
