OA show ('918 '); Xinhua, Brasilia, Oct 6 (reporter Yang Limin) researchers from the Institute of higher agriculture, Kiros, Sao Paulo, Brazil, recently developed a new type of feed, which can make cows produce low-fat, high protein milk to meet the market demand for low-fat and high nutrition milk According to the report, the researchers fed 30 cows with the new feed in a seven month experiment on a farm in Brazil The results showed that the fat content of the milk produced by these cows was equal to that of semi skimmed milk, and the milk production was 10% higher than that of cows fed with ordinary feed According to reports, the secret of this kind of feed is that it contains conjugated linoleic acid The enzyme in the body will reduce the fat content of the milk after the dairy cows eat the feed which increases the content of conjugated linoleic acid However, in order to prevent the conjugated linoleic acid from being damaged in the digestive system of dairy cattle, the researchers added conjugated linoleic acid and calcium salt to the feed It was also found that conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) can prevent cancer and cardiovascular disease in animals and humans The content of CLA in the milk of dairy cows fed with CLA additive is 5 times higher than that of normal milk (end)
