Livestock are constantly exposed to health challenges from pathogens like Gram-positive bacteria (e.g., Clostridium and Staphylococcus spp.) and fat-enveloped viruses that can impair immunity and affect productivity. Common viral threats in swine and poultry include Porcine Epidemic Diarrhea Virus (PEDV), Swine Influenza Virus (SIV), Newcastle Disease Virus (NDV), and Infectious Bronchitis Virus (IBV). These pathogens compromise immune systems, cause inflammation, and significantly reduce animal growth and performance. Traditional methods may lack the targeted efficacy required for consistent pathogen control, leaving animals vulnerable to infections and performance issues.

BEX Body Defence offers a comprehensive solution for pathogen control while enhancing natural body defenses. Using a potent medium-chain a-monoglyceride with proven antimicrobial properties, combined with a carefully selected phytogenic compound, this formulation serves as an effective alternative or complement to vaccines and antibiotics. The a-monoglycerides remain active throughout the entire digestive tract, effectively disrupting pathogens and supporting immune function. Together, these components fortify natural body defenses and promote healthier, more resilient livestock

MEDIUM CHAIN a-MONOGLYCERIDES

Medium chain a-monoglycerides have shown to be active against a broad range of Gram-Positive bacteria. Studies suggest that it disrupts the lipid bilayer of the bacterial cell membrane, forming micelles and eventually inducing cell lysis. A similar effect is observed in fat enveloped viruses where the viral lipid bilayer assembly is inhibited by monoglycerides. a-monoglycerides are pH-independent, making them active throughout the GIT.

PHYTOGENIC COMPOUND

The phytogenic compound in BEX Body Defence enhances the product’s antimicrobial action by disrupting bacterial membranes, inhibiting quorum sensing, and blocking ATP production. These effects weaken bacteria and fat-enveloped viruses, leading to their inactivation and providing robust protection throughout the gastrointestinal tract.

Dosage is species dependent

BEX Body Defence Dry is an essential solution for livestock producers focused on strengthening immune health and protecting against Gram-positive pathogens. With its specialized blend of a-monoglycerides and phytogenic compounds, BEX Body Defence Dry offers targeted, lasting pathogen control, supporting animal resilience and enhancing overall productivity.
