Vitamin B12, Folic acid and High Energy Phosphorus Injection.

The two major limiting factors in performance are;
a) available energy reserves
b) adequate red blood cells and oxygen transfer to tissues

Phosphorus is used in huge amounts during racing and training. The longer a camel competes, the higher is its phosphorus loss, and the less its endurance. The high energy phosphorus provided by Foliphos maximises endurance by ensuring that ATP is able to be replenished rapidly, and also counters the high loss of phosphorus from working muscles. Phosphorus is a major muscle buffer to reduce lactic acid accumulation, and hence improve endurance.

High energy phosphate compounds (glycerophosphates) are vital for proper muscle function and endurance, to ensure that ATP is readily available to fuel muscles over long races, without excess lactic acid accumulation and fatigue.

Maximal exertion causes a metabolic acidosis, or build-up of waste lactic acid in the blood. Excess lactic acid causes muscle fatigue, and hence reduced endurance and performance. The high energy phosphate released by ATP for maximal exertion helps to buffer the rise in muscle and blood acidity, but this phosphate needs to be recycled to produce more available energy immediately.

Vitamin B12 and Folic Acid are both essential to promote red blood cell formation
Phosphorus is essential for energy production, and is a major muscle buffer

Folic acid is unable to be supplemented orally to ruminants, including camels. It is rapidly destroyed in the rumen. As Folic acid is absolutely essential as a cofactor to vitamin B12 in the formation of red blood cells, it must be supplemented by injection at any time a stimulus of the red blood cell count is required.
Ideal to use in the pre-race lead up, or at any time blood loss needs to be remedied.

Can be used safely in conjunction with Energy Plus in camels, where the Energy Plus provides the daily oral iron and high energy phosphorus supplementation, with added choline to reduce stress and maintain liver function. Foliphos may be injected to provide the essential Folic Acid, vital to work with vitamin B12 in red blood cell formation, as well as the additional highly available energy in Phosphorus.

Remember that the two major factors limiting performance are;

lack of available energy as ATP, and
lack of adequate oxygen transport to muscle to allow maximal performance

Energy Plus and Foliphos take the risk out of maximum performance!

Vitamin B12 and Folic Acid injection

Anaemia in camels can be a common sequel after parasitism, trypanosome infestation, blood loss, Haemhorragic Disease, and many other causes.

Macrofol injection provides Vitamin B12 and Folic Acid, which work in synergy as essential cofactors in
stimulating red blood cell production, where fast treatment is required.

It is important to remember that Folic acid cannot be supplemented by mouth - it is destroyed in the rumen.

Administer Macrofol by intramuscular or intravenous injection at a dose rate of 2 - 4mL every two days, or as directed by a veterinarian.

Batphol

Vitamin B Complex injection

A specialty injection proven effective for both camels and horses, Batphol provides the B Complex vitamin group, with added Choline chloride. Specially designed for performance animals on a high grain diet where B group vitamins may be limiting, and rapid supplementation may be required.

Thiamine (vitamin B1) and Folic acid are not effectively absorbed from the rumen - most of these vitamins are rapidly denatured in oral supplements. The answer is to supplement by injection!

Choline is added to prevent fatty infiltration of the liver, and to allow the camel to better handle stress. Batphol has a major role in the prevention and treatment of Polioencephalomalacia in younger camels, caused by a vitamin B1 (Thiamine) deficiency, and common on high grain diets.

Administer by intramuscular or intravenous injection at a dose rate of 5mL every two days, or by veterinary direction.
