IT'S DIFFERENT!
HERE'S HOW IT WORKS:
RECAL, is a patent pending product developed over a 20 year period.
RECAL was originally started by a farmer from Indiana. Through on farm testing and the combined efforts of one
of the top microbiologists and one of the top dairy veterinarians in this field, the RECAL product has become
what it is today. It is a unique combination of various strains of
beneficial bacteria, enzymes, and a specific type of concentrated yeast culture. It was designed to establish
and rapidly expand a superior rumen population heavily weighted toward fiber digestion. The
introduction of extremely large numbers of desirable bacteria appears to have the ability to
overcome and replace less productive and harmful strains of bacteria. The continual re-establishment
of these bacterial colonies in the rumen and on the intestinal villi may limit stress on the immune
system by limiting growth and possibly blocking invasion of salmonella, e-coli, and other harmful
bacteria. This daily recolonization limits both the frequency and severity of stomach upsets, but
more importantly it should improve fiber utilization and in doing so, help to limit negative energy
balance.
While the above paragraph explains what probably occurs in the digestive
tract it does not adequately explain the dramatic effect this product appears to have on sick or
severely stressed animals. This effect is rapid (less than 24 hours), and highly visible (appearance,
appetite, and production).
It has been a well known and well accepted fact in ruminant nutrition
that the rumen bacteria in a healthy rumen will provide all the B-vitamins that a cow will need. It
also has been well established that supplemental B-vitamins that are fed to ruminants are largely
destroyed by the bacteria before they can be utilized by the cow because the bacteria use them as a
food source. Thus B-vitamin supplementation has been important in both swine and chicken nutrition
but largely ignored in ruminant nutrition.

Certain strains of bacteria are used to produce various B-vitamins in
fermentation vats for both human and animal use. These same bacteria if grown in the animal's stomach
can give us a dramatic increase in certain B-vitamins. Vitamin B-12 is one of the vitamins we have
based our bacterial selection on. Injectable B-12 is used throughout the world as an appetite stimulant
and as a way to improve immune function. This, to a large extent, explains why the largest response
appears to be in the animals under the most stress, heat, calving, disease, mud, etc.
The difference between the RECAL Bolus and RECAL PLUS is the total numbers of
colony forming units (cfu's) of the different bacteria. The numbers are set so as to totally overwhelm
any other population that might be present.
