From dried and ground Solanum glaucophyllum leaves to a standardized complementary feed.

Panbonis® is a complementary feed that contains a standardized level of 1,25 dihydroxycholecalciferol-glycosides (1,25(OH)2D3-gly) from dried and ground Solanum glaucophyllum leaves.

1,25(OH)2D3-gly can only be absorbed after the sugar molecule is released from 1,25(OH)2D3 by specific enzymes that are present in the intestine. This gradual process ensures a slow release of the bioactive component. Once absorbed, it does not need additional activation steps like vitamin D3 or 25-hydroxycholecalciferol (25(OH)D3) do, which means that Panbonis® can directly support the animal even when specific activation enzymes in liver and kidney are limited.
