SCIENTIFIC ARTICLE (EN) about the influence of seaweed on piglet gut health
Read Copenhagen Universities conclusion on the effect of seaweed in zinc-free weaning diets compared to zinc-free soy diets.
The trial showed that:
Though the results were very positive, the functional protein EP100i, consisting of rapeseed alone, had an even greater effect on health and growth.

EXPERIENCES from multiplier Michael Rasmussen
(2:46 minutes) in English with English subtitles
Watch Michaels results using EP199 in for his sow herd and EP200 for his piglets.
Michael was challenged by sows with anorexia and needed to increase the number of weaned piglets per sow.
You can read about Michael’s experiences here.

EXPERIENCES from breeder and multiplier Søren Kjær Poulsen
(3:21 minutes) in English with English subtitles
Watch Sørens results using EP199 in for his sow herd.
Søren needed to increase the sows milk yields and to have more vital piglets.

PRESENTATION with DanBred-breeder Allan Gade
(22 minutes) in Danish with English subtitles
Watch Allan Gade’s presentation on the benefits of focusing on gut health in pig breeding. The presentation was held at European Proteins’ Seminar on Gut Health on the 26th of February 2020.
Allan Gade har been implementing the feeding concept: “The first 175 days”, where piglets are affected from the postnatal stage through maternal feeding of the sow with EP199.

The film is 7:30 minutes and shows Professor, Dennis Sandris (2:15), Veterinarian, Michael Agerley (2:20), Director, Jens Legarth (0:30) and breeder, Allan Gade (2:30)
On the 26th of February 2020, the seminar on Gut Health for pig producers was held. We invited Professor, Dennis Sandris, to enlighten us on the link between gut health and prevention of disease and Veterinarian, Michael Agerley, to elaborate on the influence of gut health in pig production and the impact of the antibiotics on gut health.
Listen to a few of the critical points here or see them in their full length as they are uploaded and texted on this page.
SCIENTIFIC ARTICLE (EN) on the replacement of ZnO for piglets with EP100i
