what does megalac do
Megalac is a concentrated source of digestible undegradable energy. It does not interfere with rumen function, as the calcium protects the fatty acids against breakdown in the rumen and they pass in to the abomasum.s it is not fermented in the rumen and the energy is used very efficiently for milk production, Megalac can help reduce metabolic heat production and has a lower heat increment than other ingredients. As a rumen-protected fat, Megalac does not add to the acid load in the rumen.
Megalac is a rumen protected fat, combining natural plant oil (palm fatty acids) with calcium.he calcium protects the fat from breaking down in the rumen, so unlike many other fats there is no negative effect on rumen function. The fat is then digested in the acidic lower gut, with near 100% efficiency.
