ADVERTORIAL 78 FEED & ADDITIVE MAGAZINE October 2024 With the recent withdrawal of Kexxtone from the European market, dairy farmers are seeking new solutions for managing the challenging transition period of dairy cows. ReaShure®-XC Precision Release Choline and NiaShure™ Precision Release Niacin offer an innovative and comprehensive approach to improving cow health, increasing milk production, and promoting calf health and productivity. Both products can help support transition cow health, resulting in a significant return on investment for dairy farmers. BENEFITS OF REASHURE®-XC PRECISION RELEASE CHOLINE • Increased Milk Production: Supplementing cows with ReaShure-XC during late gestation and early lactation has been shown to increase milk production throughout the entire lactation period. • Reduced Metabolic Disorders: Supplemental ReaShure-XC has been shown to help reduce the incidence of metabolic disorders, enhancing overall cow health during the transition period. • Improved Liver Health: ReaShure-XC helps to improve liver function, reducing the risk of fatty liver disease and promoting better fat mobilization. • In Utero Programming: Supplemental ReaShure-XC helps promote in utero programming through DNA methylation, contributing to healthier and more productive calves. • Improved Colostrum Quantity: Cows supplemented with ReaShure-XC produce more colostrum, essential for neonatal calf health.
