Digextra® BB

A natural feed additive for newborn calves

Digextra BB® is a new generation feed additive for newborn calves responsibly made to keep their digestive systems balanced and protected

A wide range of properties 
in one compound

Digextra® BB is a preventive measure supporting the calf’s development during its most vulnerable and decisive stages of life. Digextra® BB promotes a balanced gut biome, supports better nutrient absorption and immunity. It helps strengthen the gut barrier function, bind and remove toxins and irritants and reduces stress. The result is healthier and more resilient calves.

Good news for your planet and your bottom line too.

With a wide spectrum of properties in one single compound the impact goes beyond just healthy development and better growth. As Digextra® BB strengthens and protects the gut, it can also help prevent diseases and thereby the need for antibiotics to control them. And with better nutrient absorption comes better growth.

A product for both farmers and feed manufacturers.

Digextra® BB can be used both as a supplement by farmers, or be mixed into an existing feed formulation by manufacturers. The product is both easy to store and handle with a three years shelf life. Digextra® BB is safe, tested and GMP+ certified
