Cosecure: Scientifically formulated to address secondary copper deficiency
Cosecure boluses are an insurance policy against all forms of copper deficiency. Unlike other trace element boluses, our boluses are scientifically formulated to address the most common type of copper deficiency known as secondary deficiency.
COSECURE soluble glass boluses contain rumen-available ionic copper due their unique manufacturing process, this prevents rumen copper levels from being depleted. This stops mineral complexes entering the blood stream to seek out copper, preventing essential enzyme function and causing deficiency symptoms to occur.
Ionic copper is active at the same pH as the rumen, meaning that the copper in COSECURE boluses is available for absorption and use by enzymes.
