Replamin Plus Gel

Replamin Plus Gel is a supplemental source of vitamins, minerals, and amino acids, formulated to be fed during periods of stress, such as weaning, transportation, showing, and other times when feed intakes may be decreased, as well as any other time that supplemental nutrients may be beneficial for animals which may have deficiencies.

Magnesium is the first ingredient in Replamin Plus Gel, and it is important because deficiencies have been shown to reduce calving rates, thereby reducing milk production, as well affecting the rate of gain and vigor in calves. Grass tetany, also called hypomagnesemia, is a deficiency in Magnesium, which can result in results in erratic and nervous behavior, excessive urination, twitching of facial muscles, convulsions, and eventually death.

Magnesium is necessary for hundreds of biochemical reactions in the body. It also works to help maintain normal nerve and muscle function, steady heart rhythm, support your animals' immune systems, and keep bones strong.

Potassium is also included because it is an important mineral for the proper function of all organs, cells, and tissues. It is is crucial to heart function and it also has an important role in smooth muscle contraction. Potassium deficiencies can cause stiff joints, reduced intake, and weight loss.

Manganese is a trace mineral, present in tiny amounts in the body. It helps to form bones, connective tissues, blood-clotting factors, and sex hormones. It is necessary for normal nerve and brain function and helps to fight free-radicals.

Selenium, a trace mineral that is required only in small amounts, but is essential to good health, is incorporated into proteins to make important antioxidant enzymes called selenoproteins, which are. The antioxidant properties of selenoproteins help prevent cellular damage from free radicals. Free radicals are natural by-products of oxygen metabolism that may contribute to the development of chronic diseases such as cancer and heart disease [2,3]. Other selenoproteins help regulate thyroid function and play a role in the immune system [4-7]. Selenium:  white muscle disease (primarily in sheep), retained placentas and reduced reproductive efficiency.

Replamin Plus Gel also utilizes the power of vitamins. Vitamin A is an important growth factor for tissues and cells, while Vitamin D and E are antioxidants that protect against microbial invaders.
