Zinc

Zinc is an essential trace mineral that plays a major role in immune and reproductive health in poultry, activating over 200 enzymes and helping maintain over 2000 biochemical pathways essential for health and productivity. Limited storage in the body means diets must contain enough absorbable zinc to meet requirements.

Methionine

Methionine is a sulfur-containing amino acid required for normal growth and development. Supplementation is essential because it cannot be synthesised in enough quantity to meet daily requirements. Methionine is one of the most limiting amino acids, meaning normal protein synthesis will stop until the methionine requirement is met.
