Feeding Selko IntelliOpt Cr improves rumen function and glucose metabolism
Trace minerals are essential, especially for high performing dairy cattle enduring challenging conditions. Selko IntelliOpt Cr is a unique sulphate-free nutritional package containing a combination of Selko IntelliBond hydroxy trace mineral sources and Optimin organic trace mineral sources in one convenient blend. Selko IntelliOpt Cr improves palatability of the feed, increases feed stability and optimizes fibre digestion by rumen microbes, while delivering a high level of trace metal availability
Chromium, which is present in the form of chromium propionate, plays a crucial role in the metabolism of carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins in dairy cattle[1]. Acting as a cofactor for insulin, chromium enhances insulin sensitivity[2], facilitating the uptake of glucose by cells and promoting energy utilization.
