Description
Ostovet Forte supplementation helps improve the overall health of the cattle, especially during pregnancy, calving and lactation. It also improves the reproduction of lactating cows. The health of th
e newborn calf also improves when cattle are given supplementation throughout the lactation period. Ostovet Forte has calcium and Vit D3 that helps prevent a reduction in the milk quantity for lactating cows. Ostovet Forte is a nutritional supplement for dairy cattle and is available in liquid form. Pets and cattle may develop nutritional deficiency seen as a loss of appetite, muscle twitching, weakness, subnormal temperature, increased heart rate, reduced fertility, reduced milk production, excitement and convulsions. Adding Ostovet Forte to the feed helps improve the nutritional value of the feed. The minerals, vitamins, and peptides in Ostovet Forte increase calcium levels in pregnant cows, especially during calving time and lactation. The phosphorus in Ostovet Forte helps in proper mobilisation of energy and helps maintain good bone strength.

Mode of Action of Ostovet Forte 10 Liter
How Does It Work?
Ostovet Forte gets absorbed quickly from the rumen of the cattle. Vitamin D helps in the absorption of calcium. Calcium and phosphorus act on the bones and muscle tissues and get stored there in a dissolved and locked form. The calcium levels in cattle’s blood are very low, up to 3-4 grams, but is high in the muscle tissues and bones. The stored quantity of calcium in the muscle tissue is around 9 grams, and as much quantity is stored in a dissolved form in the bones. The dissolved form in the bones is drawn quickly as needed. Phosphorus is absorbed through the large intestine and gets stored in the bones and spaces between the cells. It helps in the mobilisation of energy and metabolic activity.
Ostovet Forte ingredients act on the bones and certain enzymes in the cattle’s body and help regulate the metabolism, working of the muscles and nerves, strengthening of the bones and teeth, utilisation of energy, and improving immunity....
