GreenDigest Birds is a digestive support solution for poultry, based on micronized clinoptilolite. It captures toxins and improves nutrient absorption, strengthens intestinal barrier function, and reduces intestinal inflammation — enhancing flock performance and reducing mortality.
GreenDigest Birds is a natural additive for poultry (broilers and layers) focused on boosting gut health, productivity and end-product quality. Simply put, it helps hens and broilers perform at their best even under stressful conditions or health threats, safely and without residues.
How does GreenDigest help poultry?
Stronger shells and healthier eggs: In laying hens, the inclusion of clinoptilolite in the diet helps regulate intestinal transit and improve calcium absorption, which improves egg shell quality (eggs with harder shells and fewer breakages). By capturing intestinal toxins and pathogens, it reduces immune challenges that can affect laying. The result is healthier, longer-lasting, more productive hens and higher-grade eggs.
Grow the chicken, not the harmful bacteria: In broilers, GreenDigest keeps the gut in balance, reducing the presence of harmful bacteria such as pathogenic E. coli and Clostridium. For example, in a commercial flock without antibiotics, it was observed that chickens fed GreenDigest had significantly lower E. coli counts (approx. 10 times less) than previous flocks, without affecting the beneficial flora. This is consistent with scientific studies reporting lower pathogen load in birds fed zeolite, as it creates a less favorable intestinal environment for harmful microbes. Fewer pathogens mean fewer diseases such as necrotic enteritis, which in turn translates into lower mortality (in one experience, it dropped from 4.5% to 3.8% without antibiotics).
Mycotoxin antidote: If the poultry feed has any fungal contamination (aflatoxins, etc.), GreenDigest acts as an insurance. In experiments, adding ~2% clinoptilolite mitigated up to 70% aflatoxin B₁ damage in chickens. In the field, cases have been seen where, thanks to GreenDigest, no liver lesions typical of mycotoxicosis appeared in chickens despite consuming feed with traces of aflatoxin (below the legal limit). In other words, it trapped this toxic residue and protected the animal. For the producer, this means maintaining flock performance even if the feed is not perfect, and ensuring that neither meat nor eggs accumulate toxins.
Better feed conversion and uniform growth: As in pigs, GreenDigest improves feed efficiency in poultry. Chickens digest feed better and convert more feed into meat, slightly reducing the feed conversion ratio (one farm reported maintaining 1.60 without promoters, the same as with antibiotic promoters). This, coupled with fewer casualties, means more kilos of chicken produced for the same feed cost. In heat stress or health challenges, GreenDigest acts as a buffer that keeps the flock stable with no performance losses.
Key benefits for poultry farmers:
More resilient birds: Increased resistance to toxins and intestinal pathogens, reducing digestive diseases and mortality.
Assured productivity without antibiotics: Allows raising “Antibiotic-Free” chickens without weight or conversion penalties. Farms can achieve strict production targets in a natural way, avoiding pharmacological residues in the final product.
Better product quality: eggs with stronger shells; in broilers, contaminant-free meat. GreenDigest helps that neither mycotoxins nor heavy metals pass to muscle or liver, improving the sanitary quality of the meat/egg.
Suitable for alternative systems: It is 100% natural, usable in organic or label productions (field, free-range), where the use of antibiotic promoters is forbidden. It gives a plus of safety in these schemes.
Easy to use: It is incorporated in the balanced feed just like a vitamin nucleus. It does not require changes in the routine, just mixing the recommended dose (usually 1-2% of the feed).
