The Center for Veterinary Medicine of the FDA has agreed to allow an important functionality claim for live yeast applied in ruminant feeding.

The claim allowed is, "to aid in maintaining cellulolytic bacteria population in the rumen of animals fed greater than 50% concentrate." This claim has been earned following the submission of an extensive research dossier including innovative data from Levucell SC live rumen specific yeast (Lallemand Animal Nutrition) and its effect on fiber degrading bacteria.
