Medium Chain Triglycerides (MCT) can help improve the energy intake of pigs and poultry, improve live weight gain, and lower feed conversion rates. Reported antimicrobial benefits can help gut health, with studies showing MCT could help control Salmonella in piglets and help lower campylobacter incidents in chicks.
Our MCT is an excellent source of support for your piglets and chicks, potentially enabling you to use fewer antibiotics and help support DLWG. MCTs are efficiently absorbed and metabolized and are therefore great for piglet nutrition.
MCTs offer advantages for the improvement of energy intake and performance of piglets and may stabilize the intestinal microbiota, expanding the spectrum of feed additives supporting piglet health in the post-weaning period.

Feeding MCT can help control salmonella in piglets and lower incidents of campylobacter in chicks
Feeding MCT can help as an antibiotic replacer due the their ability to penetrate the semi-permeable membranes of bacteria
Both pigs and poultry will benefit from feeding MCT – Particularly piglets and chicks
Typically MCT are classed as C6 through to C12 fatty acids.
