Benefits

Stress caused by weaning, heat, vaccination, and feed changes can cause an imbalance in the intestinal microflora. These conditions can interfere with water balance, proper intestinal and immune function, and create an excess of ROS (reactive oxygen species).

Adding electrolytes such as K+, Na+, and Cl- ions to drinking water during hot weather promotes water consumption and retention. These ions play a direct role in maintaining acid-base balance and regulating osmotic pressure.

Vitamins A, D, and B complex are known to help maintain proper regulation of physiological functions, including those involved in the immune system and intestinal tract. They play a significant role in maintaining and stabilizing the barrier function of epithelial cells and in the development of innate and acquired immune functions.

Vitamins C and E are known for their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. They promote the elimination of free radicals and help protect cells from oxidation during periods of stress. In addition, these vitamins can attenuate the inflammatory response caused by oxidative stress.
