Cest Pharma is thrilled to announce the launch of our newest innovation in avian health, Palantir 1000ml. Formulated specifically for pigeons, this natural, bioactive complementary feed is designed to elevate the overall health, vitality, and physical condition of your flock. By combining the powerful biological effects of propolis with a carefully selected blend of plant extracts recognized in European phytotherapy, Palantir 1000ml offers a holistic approach to avian care. Many of these botanical ingredients are detailed in the European Medicines Agency (EMA) monographs, ensuring their traditional use and phytotherapeutic effectiveness are well-documented.

The true strength of Palantir 1000ml lies in the synergy of its ingredients, working together to maintain the pigeon’s normal physiological state. According to specialized literature, the selected herbs provide a complex spectrum of antioxidant, digestive, hepatoprotective, expectorant, and immunomodulatory properties. When these botanical extracts are combined with the natural defense mechanisms of propolis, they ensure that the pigeon’s body functions in perfect harmony. The respiratory herbs clear the airways to ensure optimal oxygen intake, while the digestive and hepatic herbs guarantee that nutrients are efficiently absorbed and toxins are eliminated. This integrated approach increases the organism’s physiological resistance, even under severe environmental conditions.

To provide comprehensive immune system and defense support, the formula relies heavily on Propolis, a flavonoid-rich bee product that acts as a potent antimicrobial, antioxidant, and immunostimulator. It bolsters natural defenses, particularly in the upper respiratory tract, and provides a calming effect on the digestive system. This is complemented by Cetraria islandica, or Iceland Moss, which acts as an immunomodulator and a respiratory calmer that protects the mucous membranes. Furthermore, the inclusion of Urtica dioica, commonly known as Nettle, packs the feed with essential vitamins, minerals, iron, and antioxidants that sustain vitality and aid in rapid physical recovery.

Respiratory health and clear airways are crucial for racing pigeons, which is why Palantir 1000ml includes specific botanical expectorants and antiseptics. Hyssopus officinalis is traditionally used for its powerful respiratory antiseptic properties and features strong antimicrobial and antiviral activities. Marrubium vulgare, or White Horehound, promotes the elimination of mucus and helps treat symptoms of mild dyspepsia while simultaneously stimulating the appetite. Additionally, Myrtus communis provides exceptional antiseptic and anti-inflammatory effects that specifically support respiratory health and help regulate blood sugar levels.

Digestion, detoxification, and liver function are targeted through a robust blend of hepatoprotective herbs. Fumaria officinalis is renowned for its detoxifying effects, supporting liver and biliary function while aiding in the continuous elimination of toxins. Artemisia absinthium, a traditional bitter herb, stimulates digestion, supports healthy intestinal flora, and acts as a powerful hepatoprotector. These are enhanced by Fraxinus excelsior and Galium aparine, which offer depurative, lymphatic draining, and mild diuretic effects to further support toxin elimination. Cnicus benedictus is also included to stimulate the appetite, support digestion, and tone the entire body.

To round out the formula, several ingredients are dedicated to mucosa protection and anti-inflammatory action. Both Agrimonia eupatoria and Rubus idaeus contribute to the protection of the digestive mucosa, acting as gentle astringents and anti-inflammatories to soothe mild digestive or oral irritations. Daucus carota serves as a natural source of beta-carotene and antioxidants, maintaining mucosal health, pigmentation, and normalizing plasma lipids. Finally, Calendula officinalis brings its highly regarded anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and healing properties to ensure comprehensive internal recovery.

Administering Palantir 1000ml delivers a wide array of benefits designed to keep your birds in peak physical condition. It contributes directly to robust support for the immune system, the maintenance of a healthy and clear respiratory tract, and a stimulated digestive system with an improved appetite. The product also guarantees enhanced liver function, a significant reduction in oxidative stress, and faster, more efficient recovery after intense physical effort or demanding periods.

Because of its versatile, natural formulation, Palantir 1000ml is highly recommended as a general support supplement across various stages of the pigeon’s life. It is particularly effective during the demanding competitive season to maintain peak condition, in periods of high physical or environmental stress, and throughout the moulting period to support new feather growth. It also serves as an excellent adjunctive support during viral, bacterial, fungal, or parasitic illnesses, ensuring your flock has the natural resilience needed to thrive. Administration should always be carried out according to the manufacturer’s or your veterinarian’s recommendations.

The Power of Garlic (Allium Sativum L.) in Pigeon Racing

Post date July 10, 2026

For centuries, garlic has been revered as one of nature’s most potent natural medicines. From its probable origins in Central Asia to its historical use by the Sumerians, Babylonians, Greeks, Romans, and Egyptians, garlic has a long-standing reputation for safeguarding health. It was even used during the Middle Ages to ward off the bubonic plague, and in the late 19th century, the legendary Louis Pasteur scientifically discovered that garlic was capable of killing harmful bacteria.

Despite occasional modern regulatory hurdles—such as an incident in Belgium where a garlic preparation was allegedly targeted for its centuries-old reputation as a “blood purifier”—thousands of scientific studies continue to validate its incredible therapeutic efficacy.

How Garlic Protects and Enhances Your Racing Team

Garlic is packed with a wide range of Phyto-active substances, including phenols, bioflavonoids, vitamins, enzymes, minerals, and organic sulphur compounds. When integrated into a pigeon’s routine, it provides holistic health benefits across multiple bodily systems:

1. Cardiovascular Support & Stamina

Garlic acts as a powerful tonic for the heart and blood vessels. It provides a natural blood-thinning effect, combats the formation of blood clots, and aids in lowering cholesterol. Crucially for racing pigeons under extreme exertion, garlic protects the heart muscle against oxygen deficiency, ensuring optimal stamina and endurance during long flights.

2. Natural Detoxification & Blood Purification

Garlic delivers an outstanding anti-oxidising effect. It stimulates the body’s phase II-enzyme systems (such as glutathione-S-reductase) to detoxify the system. Furthermore, it acts as a natural chelator, binding to dangerous heavy metals like lead, mercury, and cadmium to promote their excretion and completely purify the blood.

3. Broad-Spectrum Immune & Respiratory Defence

Garlic boosts general immunity and carries an antimicrobial effect against bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites.

Pathogen Control: It has a proven track record against dangerous invaders such as E. coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella, Salmonella typhimurium, and Candida.
Respiratory Clearance: It exerts a light antiseptic effect on the lungs, actively dissolving mucous to keep airways clear.
Appetite Stimulation: It naturally promotes a robust appetite, which is essential for maintaining form.

4. The Magic of Allicin

Many of garlic’s remarkable characteristics can be traced directly to allicin, a vital defence mechanism against infections. Allicin is formed when the plant tissue is damaged. Because raw allicin is unstable and quickly decays into other sulphuric compounds, modern science has developed stable variants. Allicin boasts powerful antibacterial, antiviral, antifungal, and antiprotozoal properties—with recent laboratory research showing that high dosages are even effective against coccidiosis.

A Note on Dosage: While garlic provides incredible recuperating benefits, balance is key. Excessive dosages can inadvertently destroy the beneficial intestinal flora, meaning high-quality, measured supplementation is always the safest approach.

Elevating Your Program with Cest Pharma

To seamlessly bring the therapeutic potential of garlic and essential lipids to your loft without the risk of improper dosing, Cest Pharma offers two premium, scientifically formulated solutions:

Designed specifically to capture the plant’s active benefits in a stable, easily administrable form, Cest Pharma Garlic Oil ensures excellent physical health, superior blood circulation, and heightened respiratory and digestive function. This natural supplement acts as a mild protective barrier throughout the year. Application: Mix 5 ml of Garlic Oil per 2 kg of grain feed, 2 to 4 times a week.

The Complete Guide to the Racing Pigeon’s Digestive System

Post date July 3, 2026

The digestive system of a racing pigeon is a highly efficient biological engine designed to extract maximum energy and nutrients, forming the very foundation of its performance and vitality. The intricate process begins as food travels down the oesophagus, which forms the crop, or ingluvies, just before the proventriculus. This thin-walled storage pouch acts as a critical regulator, carefully controlling the release of food into the stomach. Within the crop, food is somewhat pre-digested and is held securely until the previous portion has passed through the gizzard. The stomach itself is composed of two distinct parts. The first is the pars glandularis, formed by a thin, fusiform proventriculus, which leads into the pars muscularis, where the gizzard, or ventriculus, is located. Featuring strong muscular walls, a wiry outer covering, and a wrinkly inner mucosa, the gizzard relies on powerful, rhythmic contractions. The immense pressure generated by these contractions effectively crushes seeds and grit, breaking down the feed to prepare it for intestinal absorption.

As the digestive journey progresses, the food leaves the stomach through the pylorus and enters the duodenum. The duodenum is a distinctive U-shaped loop that houses the pancreas, a narrow, yellow-red organ with three exits into the digestive tract. The pancreas plays an essential role in this phase by utilizing sodium bicarbonate to neutralize the strong gastric acids coming from the stomach. Following the duodenum, the feed moves into the jejunus, which is the largest section of the small intestine, and subsequently enters the ileum. While there is no obvious visual transition in birds, the ileum is situated near the diverticulum vitellium, a remainder from their very first days of life. At the end of the ileum, two caeca are responsible for crucial bacterial digestion, breaking down complex matter before the rectum connects the tract directly to the cloaca. Because this system is so fast and efficient, maintaining its delicate balance is absolutely critical for any competitive pigeon.

However, even a perfectly functioning digestive tract can be rapidly compromised if the pigeon’s overall immune system is weakened by viral infections. Implementing a strong preventative sick care routine is non-negotiable for serious fanciers. Administering a double vaccination against the paramyxo and herpes viruses, spaced three weeks apart, alongside a targeted vaccination against rotavirus, provides significantly stronger protection than relying on a single, legally obligated dose. Rotavirus is notorious for directly attacking the intestinal tract, causing severe gastrointestinal distress and paving the way for catastrophic young bird sickness. While the paramyxo and herpes vaccine combination does not offer direct protection against the adeno coli syndrome, it substantially lowers the risk of subclinical infections. Because these persistent viruses continuously attack the immune system, they make pigeons incredibly sensitive to secondary infections. By securing the immune system through comprehensive vaccination against paramyxo, herpes, and rotavirus, you prevent the immunosuppression and severe gut damage that often leads to devastating adeno coli or paratyphus outbreaks, thereby indirectly safeguarding the entire digestive tract from bacterial overgrowth.

At Cest Pharma, we understand that combining a solid vaccination strategy with elite nutritional support is the only way to keep your flock consistently healthy and competitive. To proactively fortify the intestinal tract, we highly recommend integrating our premium supplements into your feeding routine. Utilizing Cest Pharma Oregano Oil provides natural essential oils that actively increase resistance against unfavorable bacteria and molds within the stomach and intestines. For targeted action during high-stress periods, Cest Pharma Magic delivers strong antimicrobial support that maintains the structural integrity of the intestinal wall while naturally stimulating food intake. Furthermore, AdenoColi Natura is specifically formulated with natural plant extracts like oregano, thyme, and garlic to support infection control and balance the gut microbiome, especially when fighting fast-spreading bacterial challenges.

To further enhance this delicate internal ecosystem, Cest Pharma Biotics plays a critical role in actively replenishing the beneficial bacteria housed in the caeca and intestines, guaranteeing that the bacterial digestion phase remains highly efficient even after intense races or medical interventions. Finally, consistently enriching your feed with Cest Pharma Healthy Oil delivers a vital source of premium fats and essential nutrients that soothe the mucous membranes of the digestive tract while providing sustained, high-quality energy. By prioritizing both comprehensive preventative veterinary care and our scientifically backed digestive supplements, you ensure that the complex engine of your pigeon’s digestive system is always primed for optimal health and top-tier racing results.
