One of the problems with having a limited surface area per animal is that the animals’ breathing is disturbed. The high concentration of dust, strong ammonia and other gases in the sties continuously irritate the mucosae of the airways. This irritation causes a considerable increase in mucus production. Breathing becomes difficult, which in turn opens the door to many common infections in the airways. The pigs find it harder to eat, they eat slower and therefore eat less than under ‘normal conditions’. Bronchimax has anticatarrhal properties and consists of components such as Tussilage farfara and Eucalypt, which assist the discharge of mucus. The mixture strongly influences the lungs. It is an expectorant and therefore keeps the airways open. The function of the cilia is improved, which discharge mucus from the lungs and upper airways. All this keeps the mucous membranes mucus-free. Local resistance improves, the animals’ general immunity and breathing improves. As a result, pigs eat better and more.
In busy and poorly aerated sties, infections are a second threat to indoor pigs. Bronchimax increases the pigs’ immunity in a special way, both restraining infections and increasing resistance against infections. This is partly due to one of Bronchimax’ components, Thymus vulgaris. Thymus vulgaris has a vagolytic and anti-inflammatory effect. It affects the nerves in the mucous membranes. The vagolytic effect deflates the mucous membranes and reduces secretions. The local anti-inflammatory effect has exceptionally healing results. As soon Thymus vulgaris enters the bloodstream, the component thymol is exhaled, which has an extra local anti-inflammatory effect near the mucous membrane of the lungs. Other components of Bronchimax, such as Echinacea purpurea, stimulate the activity in white blood cells and even have antiviral properties. This component activates the fagocytosis and stimulates the fibroblasts, therefore limiting infections to a smaller section of the airways. As a result, pig sties are affected less by bacterial and viral infections. If there is an infection, it will clear up quicker. Antibiotics will also work more efficiently.
Health and appetite go hand in hand. A pig with a healthy appetite will grow quicker. Bronchimax increases the appetite, thanks to components such as Ilicium anisum. This special plant is responsible for Bronchimax’ expectorant properties and influences the digestive system. It is spasmolytic and stimulates the secretion of digestive juices. Because of Bronchimax’ excellent combination of properties, it improves the appetite in general. The enclosed trials illustrate this third argument.
Another remarkable property of Bronchimax is that this complex product also stimulates the liver, which will improve feed conversion in a very natural way by improving the metabolism of the liver cell. The acids in the mixture also increase feed conversion.
Lastly, Bronchimax has an antispasmotic effect on the stomach and bowels and also acts as a carminative. It stimulates the entire digestive system and therefore has an exceptionally positive effect on the animals’ health.
Bronchimax can get an entire sty in perfect shape. It works preventively in
the lungs, upper airways, digestive system and the entire metabolism, clearly
improving feed conversion and providing a strong boost to the pig population.
