I-BetaineYaqala yakhutshwa kwi-beet kunye ne-molasses. Imnandi, ikrakra kancinci, iyanyibilika emanzini nakwi-ethanol, kwaye ineempawu ezinamandla ze-antioxidant. Ingabonelela nge-methyl kwi-metabolism yezinto ezibonakalayo kwizilwanyana. I-Lysine ithatha inxaxheba kwi-metabolism yee-amino acids kunye neeproteni, inokukhuthaza i-metabolism yamafutha, kwaye inefuthe lokuthintela kwisibindi esinamafutha.

I-Betaineisetyenziswa njengesongezelelo sokondla izilwanyana. Ukondla iinkukhu ezincinci nge-betaine kunokuphucula umgangatho wenyama kwaye konyuse imveliso yenyama. Olu phononongo lubonise ukuba ukunyuka kwamafutha emzimbeni weentaka ezincinci ezitya i-betaine bekuphantsi kuneentaka ezincinci ezitya i-methionine, kwaye isivuno senyama sinyuke nge-3.7%. Olu phononongo lufumanise ukuba i-betaine exutywe namayeza okulwa ne-coccidiosis anokunciphisa kakhulu umngcipheko wezilwanyana ezosulelwe yi-coccidia, kwaye emva koko kuphucule ukusebenza kwazo kokukhula kunye nokumelana. Ingakumbi kwiinkukhu ezincinci kunye neehagu, ukongezwa kwe-betaine ekutyeni kwazo kunokuphucula ukusebenza kwamathumbu azo, kuthintele urhudo, kwaye kuphucule ukutya, okunexabiso elibalaseleyo. Ukongeza, ukongezwa kwe-betaine ekutyeni kunokunciphisa impendulo yoxinzelelo lweehagu, kwaye emva koko kuphucule ukutya okutyiwayo kunye nesantya sokukhula kweehagu ezilunyulweyo.

I-Betainesisithako esibalaseleyo ekutsaleni ukutya kwizilwanyana zasemanzini, nto leyo enokuphucula ukutyeba kokutya okwenziweyo, ikhuthazeukukhula kweentlanzi, ukuphucula umvuzo wokutya, kunye nokudlala indima ebalulekileyo ekwandiseni ukutya kweentlanzi, ukuphucula izinga lokuguqulwa kokutya kunye nokunciphisa iindleko. Ngexesha lokugcina nokuthuthwa kokutya, umxholo weevithamini uhlala ulahleka ngenxa yokuwohloka. Ukongeza i-betaine ekutyeni kunokugcina amandla eevithamini ngempumelelo kwaye kunciphise ukulahleka kwezondlo zokutya ngexesha lokugcina nokuthuthwa.
