- Use Indications
- Highly available Calcium source and Chlorine to correct the acid – base balance.
- In dry cows or lambs, between 2 and 3 weeks before spring off a moderate metabolic acidity is suitable. In these conditions the animal body tends to neutralize the acidity by mobilizing Calcium from the bones.
- After the calving, a basic metabolic condition is needed because important amounts of Calcium are present in the milk so the body mobilizes it from the bones avoiding to depend on the Calcium from the feed via bloodstream, with the risk to fell in Hypocalcaemia.
- For the Acid – Base balance in the diet we need to have a correct balance not only in Calcium but also in Phosphor and Magnesium.
- By using anionic salts like Calcium Chloride, the Calcium absorption will be improved and also the
- Calcium mobilization from the bones reduced but, nevertheless, it will be increased the proportion of ionic Calcium in plasma (Ca+2), very active metabolically.
- To prevent urolitiasis.
- As natural alternative to Ammonium Chloride (NH4Cl) actually limited to pet foods.
- Chloride salts are 1.6 folds more active in feeds than other anionic sources like SO₄⁻
- To Be Used In
Milking cows and sows
