It is a water-soluble vitamin and a powerful antioxidant that plays a crucial role in boosting immunity, enhancing stress resistance, and improving overall animal health and performance in livestock and poultry .

This product is designed to be incorporated into animal feed or drinking water at specific ratios, ensuring that livestock and poultry receive the appropriate dosage of vitamin C. Unlike most mammals, poultry and some fish cannot synthesize sufficient vitamin C endogenously, making dietary supplementation essential . As a potent antioxidant, it neutralizes reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reduces oxidative stress, protecting cells from damage and supporting immune function . Ascorbic acid also plays a key role in the synthesis of collagen, promoting wound healing, and enhancing intestinal absorption of iron. Studies have shown that vitamin C supplementation improves disease resistance, reduces stress responses—especially under heat stress conditions—and enhances laying rate, eggshell quality, feed conversion ratio, and weight gain in poultry and livestock .

Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid) is carefully manufactured to maintain consistent quality and purity, available in various concentrations to meet different formulation requirements. It is widely used in poultry, swine, ruminant, and aquaculture operations.
