A Unique Approach 

At Diamond V, our Original products are the result of a unique bio-fermentation process.Since 1943, Diamond V has been leading the industry in fermentation-based research and technology innovation.Our proprietary anaerobic fermentation process yields a biologically complex, nutrient-rich product that contains the extra-cellular metabolites of fermentation, residual S. cerevisiae 

cells and the media utilized during fermentation. The final product is a unique nutraceutical containing many beneficial nutritional metabolites.   

 

The key bioactive components include the unique nutritional metabolites, proteins, peptides, amino acids, vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, beta-glucans and mannans.The effectiveness of these components is not compromised by extreme temperature or processing.Used daily, Diamond V Original products have been shown to deliver positive responses in both animal health and performance.
