French term or phrase: Réduit les foyers des entérotoximies
Hello,

This is the case of a patented biological origin food additive for animal nutrition.

Should I say simply:
Reduces enterotoxaemia (blood poisoning)

or

Reduces the outbreaks of enterotoxaemia/enterotoxemia? (difference between US or GB English).
I have a problem with the word foyer in this case, I know the meaning, but no idea how to say it in GB English.
Should I call it outbreaks, seats?

Thank you in advance,

Anna

Reduces the sources of enterotoxemia
Explanation:
It is always difficult to be certain without seeing it in context but I am pretty sure they are referring to where there is a risk of the Clostridium infection starting, i.e the source.

in medicine "foci" mean chronic inflammations ("Foyers" en franc. "Herde" en allemand. e.g. Abscesses are foci of purulent inflammation.
