Components:

* Aluminosilicates:

- Acid-Activated Aluminosilicate (Montmorillonite):

. The layered structure of montmorillonite in Free-Tox undergoes a specialized acid activation process.

. This process significantly increases the surface area and creates larger pores, enhancing the adsorption capacity for larger mycotoxins, particularly Zearalenone (ZEA).

. Furthermore, this modification alters the cation exchange capacity of bentonite, minimizing the binding of essential nutrients.

- Clinoptilolite:

. Ammonia released from undigested proteins into the litter contributes to environmental pollution and irritates poultry footpads, leading to foot problems.

. Clinoptilolite possesses a unique ability to adsorb ammonium cations within the poultry digestive tract.

. Free-Tox incorporates this specialized aluminosilicate to mitigate these issues.

* Yeast Cell Wall:

- The yeast cell wall used in Free-Tox is extracted and harvested during the early stages of fermentation.

- At this stage, the network of covalent bonds is less dense and more flexible, providing optimal access to mycotoxin adsorption sites.

- This contrasts with yeast harvested in later fermentation stages, where stronger covalent bonds restrict access to adsorption sites.

* Organic Acids and Their Salts:

- These components contribute to overall mycotoxin binding and gut health.
