As a preferred source of both calcium and magnesium, using OptiMag can create additional ration space. This supplement is nutritionist-preferred to alternate magnesium sources for its solubility, consistency and effectiveness in managing rumen digestion and long-term production.

OptiMag has a lower feed rate compared to conventional calcium and magnesium supplements. To offer a high-magnesium mineral for cattle, poultry and swine, GLC manufactures a consistent particle size for increased solubility and even mixing. OptiMag is produced in a locally sourced, safe feed/safe food-certified facility to ensure maximum bioavailability for rumen digestion and long-term production.
