Frequently asked
- What is the role of calcium in milk production?
- Calcium is essential for several physiological processes involved in lactation, including mammary gland function, cellular activity, and muscle contraction. Adequate calcium availability supports the normal production and secretion of milk.
- How does calcium support natural milk let-down?
- Milk let-down is a natural process regulated by the cow’s own oxytocin hormone, which causes contraction of the myoepithelial cells (muscle-like cells) surrounding the milk-producing alveoli and helps release milk. Adequate calcium supports normal muscle contraction and therefore supports the natural milk ejection process.
- What is the role of yeast in supporting milk production?
- Yeast supports a healthy rumen environment by promoting beneficial microbial activity and helping improve feed and nutrient utilization. Better rumen function can support feed intake, digestion and nutrient availability, helping dairy animals meet the increased nutritional demands of milk production.
