AviLyte Extra

Concentrated Water Soluble Electrolyte Solution

Water is the most important nutrient for Poultry. Heat stress increases water consumption by at least five times the normal level in temperate zones. Exposure to heat stress for long periods suppresses the responsiveness of the immune system. Increased levels of corticosteroids in the blood reduce the activity and population of lymphocytes in the blood. Electrolytes sodium, chloride, potassium, phosphate, citrate and dextrose can be used for recovery of electrolyte and acid/base imbalances. Loss of electrolyte balance is perhaps the most serious outcome. All the body systems are affected when Dietary Electrolyte Balance (DEB) is lost. Poultry stop eating and there are various behavioral responses such as squatting and wing spreading. Lost electrolyte balance results in the loss of potassium, sodium and bicarbonate in an increasing urine output. AviLyte Extra provides essential electrolytes for broilers and layers to support maximum performance in challenging conditions. Increasing DEB values of the by supplementation of Sodium and Potassium improves average daily weight gain of chickens.
