Smartbacteria – Why Your Animal Needs it

Understanding Smartbacteria

At Priority IAC, we use advanced molecular-based strain selection methods and state-of-the-art DNA genomic sequencing to identify and select the most effective strains of bacteria for animal supplements. We call these unique strains “Smartbacteria,” and they can only be found in Priority IAC products.

For decades, we have studied the trillions of microflora present in animals to pinpoint the best of the best bacteria strains based on strength and performance. Each Smartbacteria strain plays a vital role in supporting your animal’s digestive health, immunity, and overall well-being.

Not All Bacteria Are Created Equal

Just like humans, animals have a diverse microbiome filled with countless bacterial strains. However, not all bacteria are beneficial—some can be neutral, while others can have negative effects on health.

Smartbacteria are different. They have been carefully selected for their ability to enhance digestion, support immune function, and help manage harmful pathogens. Through rigorous strain identification, Priority IAC ensures that only the most effective bacteria make it into our products, providing real results for farmers and livestock owners.

The Four Key Functions of Smartbacteria

1. Gut Enhancers

Gut enhancers are bacteria that optimize digestion and nutrient absorption, leading to better overall health and productivity. These strains help animals utilize sugars more efficiently, reducing waste and improving energy levels.

  • Lactococcus lactis A2020™ – Promotes efficient sugar utilization and has anti-inflammatory properties.
  • Pediococcus pentosaceus A4000h™ – Aids in the efficient use of 5 and 6 carbon sugars.
  • Lactobacillus plantarum LP100™ – Integrates with the intestine to fight off disease-causing bacteria.
  • Lactobacillus casei LC222™ – Helps regulate the digestive system.
  • Enterococcus faecium EF141™ – Supports efficient sugar utilization.
  • Lactobacillus brevis LBR1000™ – Enhances sugar metabolism.
  • Bacillus velezensis 8G-134™ – Promotes the efficient use of sugars.

2. Gut Managers

Gut managers help balance the acidity in the digestive system, ensuring a stable and healthy gut environment. These bacteria are crucial for maintaining optimal pH levels and preventing digestive disturbances.

  • Propionibacterium jensenii Prop1-IAC™ – Acts as an acid consumer, balancing gut acidity.

3. Pathogen Inhibitors

Harmful bacteria can make livestock sick, leading to reduced productivity and increased veterinary costs. Pathogen inhibitors work to block and suppress harmful microbes before they can cause disease.

  • Bacillus subtilis B5000h™ – Helps block harmful pathogens.
  • Bacillus subtilis B50005™ – Provides pathogen-blocking support.
  • Bacillus subtilis B5150™ – Works to prevent harmful bacterial growth.

4. Immune Communicators

Since a significant portion of an animal’s immune system is housed in the gut, having the right bacterial strains can support immune function. These strains help regulate immune responses, ensuring a strong and balanced defense against disease.

  • Lactobacillus reuteri 1E-1® – Helps modulate the immune system.
  • Enterococcus faecium 2E-1™ – Supports immune response for better resilience against illnesses.

Why Your Animal Needs Smartbacteria

Improved Digestion and Nutrient Absorption

Smartbacteria ensure that your animal gets the most out of its feed. By enhancing the breakdown and absorption of nutrients, these probiotics lead to better growth, weight maintenance, and overall performance.

Stronger Immunity and Disease Resistance

With a well-balanced gut microbiome, your animal’s immune system is better equipped to fight off infections and illnesses. This means fewer sick days, lower vet bills, and healthier, more productive livestock.

Protection Against Harmful Pathogens

Smartbacteria actively work to suppress harmful bacteria before they can cause disease. By introducing beneficial bacteria into your animal’s system, you create a natural defense barrier that keeps them healthier and happier.

Optimized Gut Health for Longevity

A healthy gut is the foundation of overall well-being. Whether you are raising dairy cows, horses, pigs, or poultry, providing them with Smartbacteria ensures long-term digestive health, leading to improved lifespan and productivity.
