Avi-culture, The Finest, Live, Avian-Specific Probiotic

"AVI-CULTURE^® MEETS OR EXCEEDS THE CRITERIA FOR A TOP-QUALITY AVIAN PROBIOTIC"

Barbi Humberg of Barbi's Bird House, a successful Avi-Culture^® distributor of my product line, made me aware of an article she thought I'd be interested in reviewing since she stocks the magazine and the product mentioned in this article in her store. In fact, she just placed a restocking order of Avi-Culture^® probiotics anticipating the demand for my products.

Please know that the article mentioned below is a totally unsolicited article by Parrot Magazine’s The Holistic Parrot columnist, Leslie Moran, appearing in the July, 2010 issue published in the UK and available in pet stores, veterinarian offices, animal rescue facilities and on magazine racks in establishments worldwide.

I received permission from the author and the publisher to use the article on my websites in order to increase exposure, demand and get more veterinarians, no-kill, animal & companion pet facilities, non-profits and resellers to stock my product line with links to this magazine’s website. The use of the article and the associated links should help get more vets & resellers to stock the magazine as well as get new subscribers to it, not to mention increase the sales of my product line!

After over 9 years of success marketing and making Avi-Culture^® live, avian-specific probiotic available thru veterinarians, exclusive distributors, E-commerce businesses and brick & mortar establishments all over the world, it pleases me to know that brand recognition is allowing bird aficionados the opportunity to understand the value of a quality probiotic in order to be ‘proactive’ with their companion pets rather than reactive!!

I must also mention that I’ve recently launched PRO-LIF™ , a new line of highly-palatable, 4-strain, Dairy-Free and Gluten-Free probiotics in tablet form for dogs, puppies, cats & kittens and will soon have the PRO-LIF™ line of reptile & amphibian-specific probiotic available through our PRO-LIF™ website and distributors in the very near future as well!

The Holistic Parrot By Leslie Moran

In the May issue of this magazine, the reasons for never feeding dairy products to your birds was outlined. Last month the facts regarding how yogurt really is different from all other dairy products was clarified. Which leads us into a discussion of avian-specific probiotics.

The poultry industry defines probiotics as a culture of specific living microorganisms which beneficially affects the host animal by improving its intestinal microbial balance.

According to the currently adopted definition by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and the World Health Organization, probiotics are defined as: Live microorganisms which when administered in adequate amounts confer a health benefit on the host. More precisely, probiotics are live microorganisms of nonpathogenic and nontoxic in nature, which when administered through the digestive route, are favorable to the hosts health.
