![]() To bring this back to normal levels, it is good to add some extra vitamins and minerals for a few days after birth. However, every animal has a different supply of vitamins, minerals and trace elements in its body at birth. The vitamins, minerals and trace elements in Denkavit feed and milk are finely adjusted to the needs of the calf or lamb. ![]() Iodine is necessary for the proper performance of the thyroid gland, influencing both the metabolic rate and growth rate of the animal. Among many other functions, Zinc, copper and manganese are all important instruments for enzymes that act as antioxidants. Iron is needed for energy management and oxygen transport. Essential trace elements for the body are iron (Fe), zinc (Zn), copper (Cu), manganese (Mn), iodine (I) and selenium (Se). Trace elements are minerals that the body needs in minute quantities and which can be toxic in larger quantities. Phosphorus is important for the metabolism in the bones and is an important building block of our DNA. Furthermore, calcium ions are essential for the transmission of signals in nerve cells. Calcium and magnesium are important for bones, muscle tension and milk production and together with potassium play a major role in cow milk disease. They also play an important role in the acid-base balance of the body. That’s why they are important if an animal has diarrhoea. Na, Cl, and K largely determine the fluid balance of the body. The minerals the body needs are Magnesium (Mg), Calcium (Ca), Sodium (Na), Chloride (Cl), Phosphorus (P) and Potassium (K). Minerals are absorbed by living nature from the soil and water. That is why we have added vitamin E and selenium to our Dosto Caps. Vitamin E has a synergistic effect with vitamin C and selenium. Vitamin E also has a positive influence on meat quality thanks to its antioxidant effect. A higher number is formed during an inflammatory reaction or at times of stress. These free radicals are produced daily by the normal metabolism of the animal. These are aggressive molecules that can damage cells and tissues. Antioxidants protect against free radicals. ![]() Dentalcare Vitalcure and Vitaladd are now enriched with extra vitamin D, for even more vitality in animals. Additionally, Vitamin D3 has an important function in the immune system, along with vitamin A. Vitamin D, especially vitamin D3, plays a major role in calcium and phosphorus metabolism, which in turn is important for strong and healthy bones. With iron deficiency, it is good to give extra vitamin C to ensure that the iron is better absorbed. When stressed, animals have a higher risk of vitamin C deficiency. This vitamin C is known for its role in the absorption of iron and also plays a role in the synthesis of stress hormones. An important role plays vitamin B12 in building (red) blood cells and, together with vitamin C, is an important player in the prevention of anaemia. For this reason, it is useful to administer extra B1 to goats with CCN. Vitamin B1 also supports the function of the nervous system. Vitamins B1, B2, B3, and B5 play an important role in digestion. There are many types of vitamin B and they have numerous functions as a coenzyme in energy metabolism. Vitamin A provides good vision, and good growth and supports the immune system of the young animal. Except for vitamin B12, vitamins B and C are water-soluble and therefore cannot be stored in the body. Fat-soluble vitamins are vitamins A, D, E, and K, which can be stored in the body. They can be classified into fat-soluble and water-soluble vitamins. Vitamins come from living nature and are produced by plants, animals and humans. In this article, we reveal the key vitamins and minerals, what they do and why they are so important. ![]() Young animals in particular need extra vitamins and minerals in the first phase of life because they have some deficiencies at birth. Almost everyone knows that vitamins, minerals and trace elements are important.
