Why Select BioCycle?
By: Chad Christensen
There are many products in the market today for Immune Modulation, so why Select Biocycle?
The Select Biocycle L-Form Technology is more than other Direct Fed Microbials. Often conventional
DFMs are full potency in the manufacturer’s package but not able to survive when mixed in the ration
for extended periods. Stripped of their cell walls, they are much more active than other bacteria.
Because they are dormant until consumed, L-form bacteria have an excellent shelf life and survive,
allowing them to reach the lower digestive system unharmed. Select BioCycle contains two separate
L-form bacteria, enhancing the function and population of the microflora in the lower gut.
Select BioCycle also contains both yeast culture and live cell yeast that produces a broad range of
metabolites including B-vitamins, a broad-based enzyme package to enhance nutrient digestions,
specialized proteins for the unexpected challenges, microbial sugars for the nourishment of other
gut microbes and potassium iodide to enhance metabolism.
Dairy producers utilize Select Biocycle to counteract the effects of ration changes from new forages
and negative effects from stress on reproduction, production, and SCC. Select Biocycle will help
produce strong heat expression and improve digestion. It will also modulate immune systems to
improve the ability to control mycotoxins in the low challenge range.
Beef producers utilize Select Biocycle prior to synchronization programs for strong heat expression
as well as in feedlots during stress related times such as pen moves and feed changes. Select Biocycle
will help maintain intakes creating a healthy animal minimizing days on feed and antibiotic treatments.
Often a herd cannot attain maximum performance, reproduction, and genetic potential because of the
animal’s inability to deal with stress. The L-form Lactobacillus along with the other specialized
ingredients in the Select BioCycle line of products enhance the animal’s immune system to overcome
the negative effects of everyday challenges and stress.
