X-Zelit®

X-Zelit is a calcium-binding feed additive containing synthetic Zeolite. This reduces the uptake of ration calcium and results in a stable plasma calcium level during the transition period and reduces the incidence of clinical hypocalcaemia.

X-Zelit is a novel calcium binder that naturally stimulates the cow to mobilize her own calcium reserves for effective milk fever prevention. This mode of action is much easier to effectively incorporate into transition cow management compared to a DCAD approach, which relies on an acidified diet with lower palatability to achieve prevention with a lesser success.
