Glucose powder

Glucose Powder, also known as Dextrose Monohydrate, is a readily available and easily digestible form of simple sugar crucial for providing rapid energy to animals. This pure carbohydrate is quickly absorbed into the bloodstream, making it ideal for:

Reviving Weak or Dehydrated Animals: Especially useful for newborns (calves, lambs, piglets) struggling with low energy, hypothermia, or during severe illness like scours.

Supporting Recovery: Aids in the recuperation of animals recovering from illness, surgery, or periods of stress (e.g., transport, weaning).

Enhancing Performance: Can be added to feed or drinking water for working animals or those requiring an energy boost.

Treating Ketosis/Acetonaemia: A valuable aid in managing metabolic disorders in dairy cows and ewes, where rapid glucose supply is critical.

Glucose powder can be mixed with water to create an oral drench or added to milk replacers and feeds. Its palatability makes it easily accepted by most animals, providing immediate nutritional support when they need it most
