Milk Shield is a milk acidifier that supports the health and immunity of calves fed whole milk.
Whole milk in the stomach of the calf is digested by the formation of curds by acids and enzymes. At times, the large amount of milk can go undigested due to insufficient quantities of acid and enzymes.
Acidified whole milk, supports the calf’s digestion by reducing the pH, and therefore requires less acid production.
