Feed Additives, Explained
A feed additive is anything added to animal feed beyond the feed itself — to support nutrition, wellness or feed quality. Vitamins, minerals, probiotics and herbal blends like DEWORVA all fall under this umbrella.
The main types
- Nutritional additives: vitamins, minerals and amino acids that fill gaps in a ration.
- Herbal/botanical additives: plant-based blends supporting wellness areas like digestive health — this is DEWORVA's category.
- Functional additives: probiotics, enzymes and similar ingredients with a specific functional role.
How to judge a feed additive
- Read the ingredient list. Every ingredient should be named. "Proprietary blend" with no breakdown is a red flag.
- Check the claims. "Supports digestive health" is a supplement claim. "Cures" or "treats" anything is a drug claim — and a supplement shouldn't make it.
- Look for documentation. Real manufacturing certificates (FSSC 22000, cGMP, HACCP) published in full beat vague "premium quality" slogans.
