The three macro minerals plus the five essential trace minerals as NutriPlex 5. Rumensin also included for peak performance and reproduction.
MineralBoost MAX
MineralBoost Max contains all the benefits of MineralBoost Classic with the added advantage of Rumensin® and NutriPlex®5 – the five essential minerals for reduced somatic cells, healthy reproduction and high production in early lactation.
Each and every granule of MineralBoost has the exact ratio of the materials required within the formulation. Granules are easy to measure and blend. Salt in each granule means its palatable for animals. Accuracy counts.
Rumensin™ is an ideal ingredient for lactating and dry cows that increases milk protein production under many conditions. Rumensin™ is a scientifically-proven rumen modifier that improves the health and performance of dairy cows. Rumensin™ has a number of proven benefits including increased milk protein production. In addition, Rumensin™ aids in controlling ketosis, reducing bloat and both preventing and controlling coccidiosis caused by Eimeria zuernii and E. bovis.
NutriPlex®5 is a combined blend of NutriPlex®5 Copper, Zinc, Iodine, Cobalt and Sel-Plex® selenium. This pack is a specific formulation for New Zealand farms, designed to boost mineral status within the cow for fertility, milk quality and hoof integrity.

Calcium
Calcimate in MineralBoost is manufactured from high quality New Zealand limestone. The industry’s most stringent manufacturing and testing processes ensures the outcome is a fine, high calcium supplement you can trust.
Calcium maximises milk production post-calving, optimises assimilation, improves reproduction, strengthens the cows’ immune system, counters the stress from cold weather and extreme activity (i.e. mating, calving) and enables younger stock to reach their growth potential.
Magnesium
MineralBoost contains high quality magnesium sourced from Australia.
Magnesium is required for the production of hormones that are important for the absorption of calcium from the gut and the mobilisation of calcium from bones. Magnesium supplementation will reduce animal health problems and increase milk production. The magnesium requirement of the modern dairy cow has increased, partly due to increased use of nitrogen (N) and potassium (K) fertilisers and also due to an increase in cow genetic merit. All cows are to some extent deficient in magnesium in late pregnancy. Cows cannot access magnesium stored in the body and therefore it is best to be supplemented daily.
Sodium
MineralBoost contains quality New Zealand sourced sodium. Dairy cows routinely expel sodium from the body in urine, faeces, saliva and milk which has to be replaced.
Sodium is an essential element for animals, and may be one of the most cost effective methods of increasing milk production. Research has proven supplementing with sodium can give a significant production response when the dietary level is low. Sodium in some form should be available at all times all year round. Rapidly growing young animals require sodium for new tissue formation and if sodium is deficient, appetite is suppressed.
Monensin (Rumensin®)
Rumensin® is designed for lactating cows to help combat ketosis, improve milk protein production and helps aid in the control of bloat. It controls the fermentation process in the rumen and helps boost the production of certain volatile fatty acids which supply energy to the cow.
Organic Trace Minerals (NutriPlex®5)
NutriPlex®5 is a safe, traceable product for improving animal health and performance which leads to increased profitability. Trials show improved reproductive performance, reduced mastitis, and increased hoof hardness. NutriPlex®5 has been specifically formulated for New Zealand cows.
NutriPlex®5 delivers zinc, copper, selenium (as Sel-Plex®), cobalt and iodine which is a specific blend of five essential organic trace minerals designed for feeding all year round.
NutriPlex®5 minerals are organically bound complexes where positively charged minerals such as copper, zinc and cobalt are bound to peptides (very small protein molecules) and amino acids. They are more bioavailable to the cow than inorganic minerals such as sulphates.
