PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:
Phosphorus and calcium are essential macro-elements.There is a close functional relationship between calcium, phosphorus and magnesium, which makes them inseparable.It is precisely under the forms Ca++ and Mg++ (bivalent cations) and PO43-(anion) that this close relationship is established. We always have to keep in mind their interrelations. A transition problem with one of them will influence the balance of the other two.It is one of the constituents of the bone structure.Under the phosphoric acid form, it is part of the structural elements of protoplasm.Under the ATP form, it serves as an accumulator and energy transmitter.Phosphates are essential to the maintenance of the extra cellular liquids acido-basic balance. They act as buffers in the blood, saliva, rumen liquor and other liquids.At the kidney level, phosphates intervene in the excretion of H+ or Na+ whether it tends to be acid or alkaline.Calcium is one of the fundamental constituents of protoplasm and structures such as bones, tendons and ligaments.It plays an important role in the conditioning of the membrane permeability.It plays an essential role in controlling neuromuscular excitability.In blood, calcium is mainly found in the plasma.Ionised calcium is of great importance in blood coagulation, heart functions, muscles andnerve functions and coagulum formation in the abomasum of the young ruminant.It activates a great number of enzymatic systems. (esterases, dehydrogenases, ATPase, etc…)
