Could the secret to better bird performance be improved pellet quality? Think about this. As a feed pellet travels from the feed mill to the bird, many pellets are broken. If a full pellet contains the perfect balance of nutrients, what happens to the birds who only eat a portion of a perfectly balanced pellet? Is it possible that those birds are not achieving their full potential? Recent data certainly suggest just that.

We’re supporting #SaltAwarenessWeek, which spotlights one of our key principles of #reformulation. 🧂 Salts come in many shapes and forms. The one most used in the food industry is a compound of Sodium and Chloride. Used widely as a seasoning, it enhances favourable tastes by masking bitterness (try for yourself – adding salt to tonic water hides the bitter taste of quinine). It is also integral to numerous food technology processes. 🧂 High sodium levels in the body can lead to high blood pressure, heart disease and stroke. Adults should consume no more than 6g salt (2.4g sodium). It is estimated that 17,000 lives could be saved in the UK by reducing average salt intake to this level, from the current average 8.1g [Action on Salt]. We’ve compiled a host of resources to help you learn about sodium, the relevant targets and legislation, and make recipe adjustments to help you #reformul8 for health.

What if our schools had funding to give our kids healthy food? What if the hospitals & doctor’s offices who take care of us had healthy choices in vending & concessions for their customers & employees? What if the businesses we visit did the same for their customers & employees? What if our elected officials made laws protecting our kids from chemicals like Red 40, Yellow 5, sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, polysorbate 80, carrageenan, nitrates/nitrites, high fructose corn syrup, mono & diglycerides, and monosodium glutamate?
