Abstract: The present disclosure comprises a natural method of feed supplement to beef cattle, with a maize extract obtained from the nixtamalization process with a high content of ferulic acid and its salts, for a period of 30 days in the final phase of the feedlot. Use of this dietary supplementation enables an increase in carcass yield and meat quality that is not negatively affected as with a commercial ?-agonist. In addition to the above effects, the effective supplementation of ferulic acid to cattle is shown to have antioxidant effects on fresh meat during its shelf life, which can lead to great benefits for the industrial meat market.
