Name：Betaine

COA：107-43-7

Founction:

1. Provide methyl groups: Betaine is an efficient methyl donor, which can provide methyl groups for many biochemical reactions in animals that require methyl groups, such as participating in the methionine cycle and promoting the metabolism of proteins and fats in animals.

2. Regulate osmotic pressure: When animals are under stress, such as high temperature and high salt environments, betaine can help cells maintain normal osmotic pressure, reduce the damage of stress to cells, and protect the functions of animal tissues and organs.

3.  Appetite-stimulating effect: Betaine has a unique sweet and fishy flavor, which can improve the palatability of feed and increase the feed intake of animals, especially for aquatic animals and young animals.

4.  Promote fat metabolism: It can increase the activity of fat metabolism enzymes, promote the decomposition and utilization of fat, reduce fat deposition in the animal body, and increase the lean meat ratio.
