About this event
Systemic inflammation and oxidative stress often go unnoticed, yet they quietly drain energy, animal health and profitability every day. When animals face feed changes, transition stress or pathogen pressure, the balance can tip: oxidative stress rises and performance starts to slip. The effects are felt in practice: higher health pressure, longer recovery periods, reduced fertility and weaker returns.
So what really matters when it comes to addressing cellular stress early? Which signals should you watch and where is action most worthwhile? Join our Ecknowlogy Live webinar »Combat oxidative stress and energy losses for full performance« to take a closer look. Prof Christian Koch and Dr Temitope A. Aloba will share current insights and practical takeaways to help you reduce energy losses, strengthen resilience and guide your herd more steadily through critical phases.
