A recent meta-analytical review of 4 years of Cow Start research on over 450 cows has demonstrated the role that Cow Start has played in reducing the risk of a range of the key metabolic issues in freshly calved cows.
Cow Start supports the cow’s immune response by improving her calcium and energy status in combination with providing high levels of rumen protected Selenium and Vit E in order to boost her anti-oxidant status.
The combined incidence risk rate (including clinical milk fever cases) drops by a factor of 3 for Cow Start supplemented cows (P<0.05). There is a significant reduction in the risk of uterine infections by a factor of 5 (P<0.05) as well as numerical reduction of the risk of retained placenta by a factor of 2.
