1. A composition for feeding monogastric animals comprising a controlled release lipid matrix and a mixture of active substances incorporated within the matrix, where:
- the controlled release lipid matrix consists of (a) at least one hydrogenated vegetable triglyceride selected from the group consisting of;
palm butter, sunflower oil, corn oil, rape oil, peanut oil and soybean oil or (b) animal triglycerides selected from the group consisting of;
bovine tallow and swine lard;
the mixture of active substances consists of at least one organic acid and at least one aromatizing agent wherein the organic acid is selected from the group consisting of;
formic acid in an amount of 0.1 to 50% by weight, with respect to the weight of the composition;
