Versele Laga Maize Black is suitable for pigeons. During flight, pigeons experience oxidative stress (so-called negative stress) which reduces energy production and thus jeopardizes a good performance.
What is the big benefit of black maize?
Natural antioxidants are found in many types of grain and maize. However, black maize is much higher in antioxidants; the levels of polyphenols and anthocyanins (both important antioxidants) are dozens of times higher. Therefore, the muscles are much better protected, there is less damage to the muscle cells and the pigeons have more stamina and can thus fly longer.
Why is black maize also good for the overall condition of pigeons?
Antioxidants also play an important role in supporting and strengthening the immune system. Oxidative stress thus causes 'oxidation' = the coming apart, the compound of oxygen, which comes down to rusting or, in living creatures, to ageing. The body cannot process too much oxidation and it is also inflammatory.
