14: Mycotoxin Binders: Proven to bind more nutrients than mycotoxins.
from Ruminate This | Agrarian Solutions · host Scott Zehr
Are binders truly effective in combating harmful toxins in feed, or could they be causing more harm than good? In this episode, we delve into the suprising research by Kihal et al. (2020, 2022), which examined the effectiveness of yeast cell wall and clay binders in binding mycotoxins. While binders were originally developed to target Aflotoxin—a toxin now rarely found in feed—they may not be the best solution for today's more prevalent toxins like DON, Zearalenone, T-2, and Fumonisin.We also explore a biological, not chemical approach that offers broad-spectrum protection against mycotoxins without the drawbacks of traditional binders. Backed by solid research, this biological approach could redefine how we safeguard livestock from the hidden dangers in their feed.
