Phode is introducing Win'Ox, an antioxidant rich in polyphenols based on grape extracts, and which is designed for technological and nutritional applications in animal feed and premixes.

Antioxidant supplementation is particularly recommended during periods of oxidative stress such as reproduction, gestation, lactation, weaning, feed transitions, heat stress, and hatching and etc.
 
Grape is particularly rich in polyphenols, known for their high antioxidant power and capacity to scavenge free radicals, with Win'Ox containing at least 50 percent total polyphenols. Win'Ox polyphenols contain a high level of procyanidins, described as the most potent anti-radical compounds among grape polyphenols.
 

Win'Ox antioxidant power, assessed using the ORAC method (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity), is superior to that of many other natural sources of antioxidants: from 2.5 (minimum guaranteed) to 3.5 fold the antioxidant power of Vitamin E. The ORAC method used to measure a compound antioxidant potential is a method officially recognised by the USDA.

Win'Ox is extracted from grape marc by aqueous extraction, through a process which ensures optimal preservation of the polyphenols properties.
 

Win'Ox represents a natural alternative to synthetic antioxidants and ideally complements Vitamin E to preserve the reproductive, growth and immunity functions of farmed animals and to enhance the stability of animal products.
