Proven Benefits in Dairy Cows
Scientific studies demonstrate superior efficacy in preventing metabolic disorders
Feed Efficiency
Improved feed efficiency and ruminal fermentation, with modest effects on milk production and the Ca:P ratio
Mycotoxin Adsorption
Clinoptilolite is a mycotoxin adsorbent permitted under applicable feed regulations; its porous structure has documented affinity for aflatoxin, contributing to the safety of the diet and milk
Ketosis Reduction
Improvement of energy balance during the transition period and reduction of post-calving ketosis cases with dietary supplementation (Movahedi et al., 2023)
Ca:P Improvement
Improvement of the Ca:P ratio in the serum of dairy cows during the critical post-calving period (Folnožić et al., 2019)
Colostrum Quality
Increase in blood antioxidants and colostrum lipids, improving calf immunity (Drvenica et al., 2022)
Dairy Cattle Applications
Specific solutions for each production phase
Diet Safety (Mycotoxins)
Inclusion of 1.0-2.5% in the diet as a mycotoxin adsorbent permitted under applicable feed regulations. The porous structure of clinoptilolite has documented affinity for aflatoxin, reducing its availability in the digestive tract and contributing to the safety of the diet and milk.
Milk Production Improvement
Inclusion of 1.0-2.5% in the diet to improve lactational performance and ruminal parameters. The high CEC (150-190 meq/100g) improves ruminal fermentation and nutrient digestibility. Studies demonstrate consistent improvement in milk production.
Post-Calving Metabolic Health
Supplementation during the transition period to reduce ketosis and improve energy balance. The zeolite improves the Ca:P ratio, increases blood antioxidants, and improves colostrum quality, benefiting both the cow and the calf.
