zeolite to feed cows

X-Zelit® contains synthetic zeolite, which binds calcium in the contents of the gastrointestinal tract. The addition of zeolite reduces the quantity of available calcium in feed, thus stimulating the cow's own hormone system to uptake calcium from its bones. This boosts the cow's blood calcium content at the start of milk production just after calving and it strengthens the cow's ability to utilise the body's calcium resources.



The stable blood calcium content reduces the risk of milk fever and better equips the cow for future milk production and possible future calving.

The provision of zeolite can prevent hypocalcaemia (clinical milk fever and subclinical milk fever), but above all it safeguards the health of the cow by stimulating its natural systems to regulate the calcium content of the blood during calving.

X-Zelit® is available as granules to which wheat starch is added to improve taste and consistency. The product has been approved and ratified by the EU authorities.
