href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Nutrient#Essential_nutrients\">essential<\/a> \u2013 animals cannot survive for long without them.\u00a0 It\u2019s important to understand that all of them are important.\u00a0 From <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Essential_amino_acid\">amino acids<\/a> in protein to <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Vitamin\">vitamins<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Mineral_(nutrient)\">trace minerals<\/a>, the right balance of each one is what\u2019s important.\u00a0 This is why diet formulations <a href=\"https:\/\/www.insta-pro.com\/en\/2015\/04\/16\/why-amino-acid-digestibility-matters\/\">contain many ingredients<\/a> to supply all of the nutrients, and are assembled by nutritionists to provide nutrients in the proper balance.\u00a0 And yet, new ingredients that supply only one nutrient are released on a regular basis.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s not to say that ingredients only supplying individual nutrients are never useful.\u00a0 They clearly are in some situations and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.insta-pro.com\/en\/2018\/02\/15\/go-beyond-the-buzzword-amino-acids\/\">for many reasons<\/a>.\u00a0 However, what will always be true is that highly-refined, single-nutrient ingredients are designed for doing one thing, and one thing only \u2013 providing a single nutrient.<\/p>\n<p>The drawbacks to this approach can be seen quite clearly with the results from a recent dairy study.\u00a0 We\u2019ve previously discussed the concept of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.insta-pro.com\/en\/2017\/09\/28\/evaluating-ingredients-protein-in-the-rumen-and-small-intestine-part-3\/\">by-pass protein<\/a> \u2013 something supplying by-pass protein is included in virtually every dairy diet to boost production.\u00a0 This <a href=\"https:\/\/www.journalofdairyscience.org\/article\/S0022-0302(16)30152-7\/abstract\">study<\/a> tested by-pass amino acid (individual components of proteins) ingredients to see if they could improve milk yield.\u00a0 The results, shown below, were not impressive:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"

diet containing soy to supply protein.\u00a0 The diet was made protein-deficient by adding more ground corn and sharply reducing soy.\u00a0 When the rumen by-pass amino acids were added to the deficient diet, either individually or collectively, milk yield failed to recover.<\/p>\n<p>This study clearly proves what can happen if individual amino acids are used versus a complete protein like soy.\u00a0 This is why our customers are seeing so much interest in our ExPress\u00ae soy meal for dairy \u2013 more <a href=\"https:\/\/www.insta-pro.com\/en\/2015\/06\/29\/quality-ingredients-for-dairy-producers-results-in-improved-efficiency\/\">highly-digestibly by-pass protein<\/a> (among other reasons \u2013 see

href=\"https:\/\/www.insta-pro.com\/en\/2017\/12\/07\/utilization-of-soy-to-produce-by-pass-fat-for-dairy-cattle\/\">here<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>The use of ground corn to dilute the amount of protein in the diet, and make it deficient, is also of interest.\u00a0 It\u2019s true that corn is low in protein, and it consists mostly of starch.\u00a0 Sending the <a

gelatinize the starch<\/a>, could have been done to stimulate microbial protein in the rumen \u2013 some of which would feed the cow and boost milk yield.\u00a0 This is an example of how a quality ingredient can stimulate the production of complete proteins (microbes in the rumen).<\/p>\n<p>An important final point to be made here is that highly-refined, single-nutrient ingredients are often very expensive \u2013 typically used at low levels in a diet.\u00a0 Make sure the added benefits, if they can be realized, are <a
