Cereal Syrup - Feed Ingredient

Cereal syrup is a viscous, sweet liquid derived from the enzymatic hydrolysis of cereal grains such as corn, wheat, or rice. The process breaks down starches into simpler sugars, resulting in a syrup primarily composed of glucose, maltose, and other oligosaccharides.

In equine nutrition, cereal syrup is occasionally used as a palatability enhancer or as a source of rapidly digestible carbohydrates in certain feed or supplement formulations. Its sweet taste can help improve feed intake, especially in powders or medicated products.
