Mineral Feed Supplements from PowerFill - Mineral Supplement for cattle, horses and other livestock
Chelated Mineral Program:
WHAT ARE CHELATED MINERALS?
Chelated minerals minerals that are available for nutrient absorption. They must be utilized as natural elements from nature. Chelation holds minerals by surrounding and bonding them to stable forms such as amino acids. Chelation is a natural means for the body to transport minerals across the intestinal wall as part as digestion.
WHY IS A MINERAL PROGRAM IMPORTANT? Minerals are needed for digestion, to form skeletal structures, and in metabolic processes within the body. Seven major and six trace minerals are known to be essential for livestock, and several additional trace minerals are also believed to be necessary. Although trace minerals are required in very small amounts, adequate levels are equally as important in the major minerals.
The following table shows various systems in the body, which utilize minerals. Research is showing that imbalances or deficiencies in mineral nutrition can affect these systems.

WHAT MAKES THESE CHELATED MINERALS SO EFFECTIVE?
Size Through patented technology, these minute sized chelated minerals easily pass through the intestinal wall, allowing for easier absorption.
Stability Maintaining bioavailable Ph stability is an important aspect during the digestive process. These chelated minerals are totally available during digestion, without blocking absorption of other minerals or combining with other dietary factors to form unabsorbable compounds.
Neutrality The process of chelation results in the final mineral compound having no electrical charge (neutral). This results in the prevention of reactive mineral compounds that deactivate other important nutrients and medications.
Use only chelated minerals that duplicate the natural chelation process in the body. PowerFill has a wide range of minerals for Beef, Dairy, Horses, and Sheep. Custom minerals, with varying levels of specific vitamins and minerals, can also be made for your herds unique requirements. We will work with you to set up an optimum year round mineral program based on your current ration that is suited to your herd's specific needs.
