Fatty Liver Syndrome
23 January 2026 Friday
Fatty liver syndrome is a metabolic disorder commonly observed in dairy cattle, particularly during early lactation. As energy demands increase rapidly during this period, body fat is excessively mobilized, leading to the accumulation of triglycerides in the liver tissue and impairment of liver function. If not properly managed, it negatively affects animal health, feed efficiency, and overall productivity.
Causes and Mechanism
The primary cause of fatty liver syndrome is the energy imbalance that occurs during high production periods. When dietary energy intake fails to meet the animal’s requirements, body fat reserves are mobilized. Excessive fat mobilization exceeds the liver’s capacity to metabolize fats, resulting in fat accumulation in hepatocytes and weakened metabolic functions.
Nutritional Support Strategies
Targeted nutritional support plays a vital role in both the prevention and management of fatty liver syndrome. Properly formulated feed additives help support liver health, enhance metabolic resilience, and improve nutrient utilization.
Omega Hepatic Forte
A high-density, well-balanced premix designed to support liver integrity and overall metabolic resilience. It contains nutrients that protect and help regenerate liver cells; its formula, enriched with choline chloride, helps reduce fat accumulation in the liver.
Omega Hepato
Specifically developed for poultry. It supports liver function during critical periods such as growth, development, and egg production. Its content, including propylene glycol and sorbitol, contributes to digestive regulation and enzyme activity, helping to reduce nutrition-related liver stress.
Omega Hyper Digestion
A comprehensive formulation containing vitamins, electrolytes, amino acids, and essential oils. It supports digestive balance and enhances nutrient absorption. By improving feed efficiency, it contributes to maintaining liver function under metabolic stress conditions.
Omega MelaMix
Developed for animals experiencing metabolic challenges due to insufficient or irregular feeding. It provides rapid energy from molasses along with essential vitamins and minerals. It supports rumen function, improves nutrient utilization, and may contribute to enhanced milk production during lactation.
