Speed matters when it comes to protein: Fast protein sources result in better protein utilization

Protein kinetics is all about the speed of protein digestion. The faster a protein source is digested and absorbed the faster it becomes available for the animals.

Research now shows that faster protein ingredients are also better used for growth and performance than slower ingredients which means less protein is wasted.

Knowing the protein kinetics of a protein source will allow nutritionists to formulate diets with a higher protein biological value, optimizing animal performance and therefore feed cost, and reducing nitrogen excretion into the environment.

Introducing Protein Kinetics: Speed is the name of the game

In the world of animal feed, speed is the name of the game. New research has uncovered that the secret to the best protein performance is in the timing. More specifically, it is about the speed of protein digestion and absorption. Also known as protein kinetics.

In this video you will get an introduction to protein kinetics. You will discover the core concept, uncover its importance in protein source selection, and explore the advantages for your animals.

HP 300: The only vegetable plasma on the market

Young animals have a requirement for fast protein as this enables them to use more of the protein for deposition.

Furthermore, when supplementing diets with synthetic amino acids, the absorption of all the amino acids from the diet need to be synchronized with these synthetic amino acids not to lose efficiency.

A fast protein source allows for good synchronization in the absorption of amino acids.

Hamlet Protein produces the fastest vegetable protein source which is also almost free of the most important anti-nutritional factors.

The Hamlet Protein portfolio outperforms all vegetal protein sources when it comes to kinetics and is also on par with the animal proteins like fish meal and blood plasma.
