What the research shows

  • A heat-stressed mid-lactation Holstein cow study found that chromium propionate supplementation increased dry matter intake and milk yield, reduced respiratory rate and rectal temperature and improved antioxidant measures, while somatic cell count was also lower. (DOI: 10.1016/j.anifeedsci.2023.115765)
  • A meta-analysis of lactating dairy cow studies found that chromium supplementation increased dry matter intake and milk production overall, with responses varying according to chromium source, cow parity and supplementation period, while milk composition was not significantly changed. (DOI: 10.3389/fvets.2023.1076777)
  • A 180-day Holstein cow study found that supplying zinc, copper and manganese in chelated rather than sulphate forms increased serum and hair concentrations of the three minerals, improved antioxidant measures and increased hoof hardness, with some evidence of a stronger antibody response following vaccination. (DOI: 10.4142/jvs.2015.16.4.439)
Limits

These studies examine chromium propionate supplementation, chromium supplementation across several forms and chelated zinc, copper and manganese in dairy cows. They do not test Meta Plus Feed itself or its complete formulation.

Study details and links

What was tested

Dairy cow research covering chromium propionate supplementation during heat stress, chromium supplementation across multiple lactating cow studies and chelated zinc, copper and manganese compared with the same minerals supplied as sulphate salts.

Dry matter intake, milk yield, milk composition, somatic cell count, respiratory rate, rectal temperature, nutrient digestibility, rumen fermentation, antioxidant measures, serum and hair mineral concentrations, immune response, hoof hardness and gait measures.

  • The research provides evidence around chromium supplementation during lactation and heat stress and the use of chelated zinc, copper and manganese, but it should not be interpreted as a direct trial of Meta Plus Feed.
