The article says the additive is put into cattle feed in order to reduce methane production (Climate change). Social media has many posts by people claiming it causes fertility issues and cancer.
I posted one of the linked articles as a separate thread before posting this thread. It contains the list of UK products made by Arla.

There are warnings on the label (from what I’ve seen) that it may cause infertility (if the label snap is true).

So now they are putting poison into cows to lower their gas output? I guess the gas bag with the tube in the cows ass wasn’t practical. These people are whacked. Leave the cows alone. Take the private jets away from hypocrites like Leo DiCaprio, John Kerry,Bill Gates and the Royals just to name a few.

Silicon dioxide is sand, and is used to make food free flowing. Go to the fridge look at that parmesan cheese shaker it will have Silicon dioxide or cellulose likely both as a anticaking agent.

Propylene glycol is a common food additive used to humidity and keep things from freezing. If you drink fireball whiskey you are drinking about 5% by volume PG it is also in a number of other liquors, candy and ice creams.

The last ingredient is the active ingredient it’s an enzyme inhibitor originally from seaweed. It was discovered that this compound stop methane making bacteria from completing the pathway to methane from free fatty acids or acetic acid. Both are what the cow lives off of. Every molecule of methane made by bacteria in a cows stomach is multiple less molecules of FFA or acetic acid which the cow needs for it metabolic energy source. Cows don’t eat grass the bacteria in their four chambered stomachs eat grass and turn it into a soup of bacteria protein, free fatty acids and acetic acid which the cow actually uses for metabolic use. Eliminating the methane is a good thing as it keeps more of the energy in the feed inside the cow where it makes meat, milk and leather rather than venting to the atmosphere. Too much gas in a cows stomach can cause bloat and that can kill cow so.win win. There is not tinfoil qtard quackery it’s not a DNA or RNA nonsense. It’s a simple chemical compound that inhibits a specific enzyme pathway effectively killing methane producing bacteria. It’s genius actually. Here again any energy wasted on methane is not available for the cows use to make meat or milk that’s basic physics too.

3-Nitrooxypropanol = HOCH2CH2CH2ONO2

There is no toxic elements it’s just,hydrogen,carbon and nitrogen.

“It is the mononitrate ester of 1,3-propanediol and acts as an enzyme inhibitor that specifically targets methyl coenzyme M reductase (MCR), the enzyme that catalyzes the final step of methanogenesis in microbes living the digestive system of ruminants, such as cows and sheep.” - wiki

I don’t think I will ever get a beef product ever again, at least, anything sold at major food chains.

[[Bovaer is not a food, it is a drug]]

Yeah, but is it any good?
