The respiratory tract is equipped with three main defense mechanisms that protect the animal against infections, remove foreign particles and keep the respiratory airways clean:
The malfunction of even one of these three mechanisms leads to the accumulation of pathogens and foreign particles in the respiratory tract and may result in disease.
The proper functioning of cilia is extremely important to prevent respiratory diseases and to avoid secondary infections whenever there are viral diseases ongoing.
There are several factors that impair the movement of cilia:
Ciliary Beat Frequency is a parameter that measures the movement of the cilia. The faster it is, the better the elimination of mucus, dust, pathogens and particles.
Certain essential oils are able to speed up the ciliary beat frequency up to 20% in a natural way, improving the physiological cleaning up of the respiratory airways. This is translated into a better welfare during all the life of the animal and into enhanced productive and economic results.
Other essential oils are mucolytic: whenever the trachea is congested and there is an accumulation of mucus, essential oils lower the viscosity of mucus, allowing the free movement of the cilia and, as a consequence, the cleaning of the respiratory system.
PlusBreathe© contains essential oils with natural antiseptic, antioxidant, expectorant and mucolytic activity. It has a refreshing taste.
It is indicated to improve the functioning of the respiratory system and to mitigate heat stress in birds, ruminants, pigs and rabbits of all ages. It can also be nebulized in the farm environment.
