MINERALS

 

Mineral supplements play a vital role in the overall health of deer or moose stock. They promote antler development, overall growth, maximize body weight and aid in the reproduction of the herd. Minerals provide increased vital nutrients to your herd and are a natural part of deer and moose habitat. Adding essential minerals to a selected area, will actually promote numbers, help retain game in your hunting sector and supply resident populations with the essential elements that will in fact promotes optimum health. In simple terms, good quality mineral management gets bigger numbers, healthier Game, and Bigger Trophies.

 

SODIUM

• Sodium plays a vital role in the regulation of osmotic pressure of an organism. (Its ability to balance internal pressure and it’s also the main liquid cellular ion in the body)
• Its function is to regulate water retention and arterial pressure. 
• In case of stressful events or exertion, especially during hot days, the loss of sodium is accelerated and its replenishment becomes very important. For this reason, Salt and Mineral Licks are not only important in the spring but all year. 

 

POTASSIUM

• This mineral aids in the regulation of the cardio/vascular system. It is also indispensable for the growth and proper functioning of the musculatory system.
• It is capital to the biological wellbeing of all living creatures.   

 

CALCIUM

• The primary function of calcium is the development of the skeletal structure (the bones) and the proper contraction of the cardio and musculatory system.
• A loss of calcium will be rather apparent.  Such individuals will suffer with low fertility, a smaller structural mass and stunted antler growth.  All of which may be common and apparent for whole woodlot sectors, affecting the comportment and feeding habit of game in that sector.  This resulting poor health will be passed on from one generation to the next.  

 

SULFUR

• Sulfur naturally appears in varying concentrations from one area to the next and is absorbed by vegetation in the form of sulphates.
• Sulfur characteristically controls and equalizes the PH level of organisms. 
• Amino Acids are common elements found in the majority of vegetation and help in the growth and regeneration of tissues.  Sulfur is present in most forms of amino acids. 
• Sulfur participates in cellular growth and the chemical interaction of other elements absorbed by the system thereby liberating cellular energy.    

 

IODINE

• Critical in the fabrication of hormones and for overall growth they are also essential to hold an adequate reproduction system, iodine is found in higher quantities in a broad spectrum of aquatic vegetation.   

 

PHOSPHORUS

• Much like the other indispensable elements, phosphorus is necessary to all living organisms.  Primarily, found and maintained in the skeletal structure of animals.  It regulates and controls beneficial bacterial cells for the wellbeing of the animal, ultimately providing greater energy and aiding in reproduction. 

 

MAGNESIUM

• Magnesium works in conjunction with calcium and phosphorus, having a similar application for the growth and development of bones and in addition, provides certain antiseptic properties.  It helps detoxify the body and fights off infections by boosting the immune system. 

 

TRACE ELEMENTS

• Forms a very small part of the overall organism but plays a vital role and is essential to its development. 
• Trace elements are mostly metals that play a specific role in the biological processes. 
• Examples are: copper, cobalt, iron, zinc, sulfur, fluoride, selenium, to name but a few. 
• Each of these trace-elements have a specific function, contributing to the overall health of the animals.   

 

MARINE ALGAES

• High in nutrient value.
• Containing more than 60 trace-elements, vitamins and essential minerals.
• Beneficial to the reproduction system.  Corrective to an otherwise deficient dietary intake of food. 
• Aids in the elimination of bodily wastes.  
• Builds the immune system
• Builds up energy. 
• Naturally hydrates .
• Everything the system needs can be found in Marine Algae.
