 Frequently Asked Questions About Chelation

Q. What are the effects of mineral deficiencies on animal health?

A.

Calcium

Poor bone development, brittle or weak bones, decreased milk production, poor growth rate and impairment of muscle function

 
Phosphorous

Reduced conception rates, decreased milk production, reduced nutrient efficiency and increased embryonic mortality

 
Magnesium

Decreased muscle function, poor bone development and metabolic dysfunction such as grass tetany

 
Zinc

Immune system function, reduced conception rates, increased placental retention and decreased feed utilization

 
Manganese

Increased abortions, increased calf mortality and weak or deformed legs and joints

 
Copper

Decreased re-breeding, poor or discolored hair coat, increased calf scours, decreased immune system function and weak or brittle bones

 
Cobalt

Decreased energy utilization. Cobalt must be in a form that can be utilized in the rumen

 
Iodine

Decreased nutrient utilization, decreased reproductive efficiency and increased embryonic mortality

 
Selenium

increased placental retention, impaired immune function, increased calf scours, increased embryonic mortality, reduced conception rate and increased incidence of white muscle disease.
