Pharmacological Significance
Calcium: A-Cal Vet recognizes the significance of calcium as
a major building block of bones and teeth. It plays a vital role in maintaining
normal cardiac rhythm, blood clotting, neuromuscular function, and metabolic
activities. It's particularly essential during lactation, where inadequate
calcium can lead to hypocalcaemia, commonly known as milk fever.
Magnesium: Magnesium, another essential electrolyte, assumes
the role of a co-factor in various enzymes. It contributes to muscle
contractility, neuronal transmission, and phosphate transfer, thus supporting
overall physiological functions.
Phosphorus: As a key component in energy and protein
metabolism, phosphorus further cements its importance in A-Cal Vet's
formulation. It also contributes structurally to bone health, making it
indispensable for maintaining animal well-being.
