Excential Beta-Key range

Orffa’s excellent sources of betaine

Betaine is recognized as the most efficient methyl donor in all animal species. Supplementation enhances liver function and reduces the requirement for other methyl donors like choline and methionine, improving animal feed efficiency.

Additionally, as a protective osmoregulator, betaine also provides extra benefits. Betaine helps to prevent dehydration of cells, especially during heat stress, and optimizes cellular activity during stressful conditions.
