ELECTRO-CALF Active Constituents

DEXTROSE

Provides dextrose (and glycine) as an energy source to efficiently replenish
glucose levels to correct hypoglycaemia and stimulate electrolyte and
water assimilation.

GLYCINE

Promotes intestinal absorption of water and sodium, and it is a nonessential
amino acid, which is used to transport energy to the calf.

SODIUM ACETATE

Rapidly metabolised, it gives an immediate energy hit (sodium bicarbonate doesn’t) and it has adequate alkalising levels to correct acidosis without inhibiting milk clotting. Acetates are volatile fatty acids which can facilitate sodium and water absorption in the calf’s small intestine. It also inhibits the growth of Salmonella species.

SODIUM CHLORIDE

Restores sodium and is a major factor in the assimilation of water to
effectively correct dehydration.

POTASSIUM CHLORIDE

Restores normal intracellular potassium levels to correct hypokalemia (low potassium in the bloodstream).

BETAINE

Osmoregulator to aid hydration and gut wall integrity.

ESSENTIAL VITAMINS

For a diverse role in metabolic functions:

Vitamins A, D, E, C, B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B9, B12

ZINC

Improves immune support.
