A study on the efficacy of herbal Methionine (Nutri-methionine) supplementation with synthetic DL-Methionine on the growth performance of Broiler chicken

Published: May 31, 2014
Summary
INTRODUCTION: Dl-Methionine is the critical amino-acid for poultry. Supplementation of DL-methionine in poultry ration is well established to improve growth and performance in broilers. (Swick et.al, 1990). Methionine must be supplemented in the diet of chi9cken as the poultry birds are unable to synthesize it in the amounts necessary to sustain life and growth. Methionine is required at highe...

This study says that the bird consumes 3200 grams of weight to get to the 1500 conversion rate of 50%, although the typical mixture Dear But this is a loss of farms in Jordan. Is there a feed mixture check conversion of 60% or more even underestimate the losses?

Dear Tawfik, i could not understand your comment properly! still let me reiterate, Botanical Methionine in broilers have been found to effectively replace synthetic methionine without compromising on FCR or weight gain( suppose if your broiler attains weight of 1500 gms in 25 days with dl methionine, you will get similar or better results with Botanical methionine! the difference will be remarkable in terms of farm econimcs( since botanical methionine will cost you only a fraction of DL-methionine).

I am considering the herbal methionine. However the starting point is the knowledge of the methione (or methionine activity compund) content of the product. Same applies to Lysine and Choline. Would you please allow me a techical specification sheet for these products. Thank you. Sergio velez

Dear Sergio Valez,

Herbal Methionine is a natural source of active methionine.it is scientifically developed from a specific combination of botanicals,& contains methionine in dipeptide & oligopeptide forms in a readily digestible composition,along with natural enzymes required for conversion of methionine in to L isomer of active form( SAM) for its optimum utilization.nutrimethionine can efficiently replace synthetic DL methionine by mimicking the methionine activity in vivo or within living systems.

• Methionine in dipeptide & oligopeptide form present in Truemeth( Herbal Methionine) is more bioactive & bioavailable.
• Methionine in natural & L-isomeric form present in Truemeth gets easily absorbed & sustains in body for a longer duration of time.
• Precursors(serine & aspartic acid) & intermediates(SAM & MAT) present in Truemeth help to maintain endogenous synthesis of methionine.
• Recyclers(folic acid & phosphatidyl choline) present in Truemeth help to recycle dietry & supplemental methionine for sustained bioactivity.
• Folic acid present in Truemeth spares dietry methionine for protein synthesis instead of one carbon transfer reactions

However,their is a lot of difference in results of Herbal methionine manufactured by different companies.This is largely due to difference in composition & specialist technologies used.

Do you know of a herbal methionine marketed in the U.S. that can be used in organic poultry rations?
