What are the main benefits of bypass protein?
Answer. The main benefit of bypass protein is essential amino acids are metabolized in the small intestine instead of the rumen, thereby providing a source of essential amino acids for production, in the case of show animals, muscle synthesis. Anything you can do to get natural proteins past the rumen into the small intestine is very beneficial to the animal. Once the protein makes it to the small intestine, then it can be better utilized for protein synthesis.
