SPECIALIZED EXPERTISE IN HEAT STRESS MANAGEMENT

The conditions of Mediterranean livestock production, characterized by prolonged periods of high temperatures and increased heat load, have created an environment in which Pharmacell has developed particular expertise: the nutritional support of production animals under heat stress conditions.

Heat stress occurs when an animal’s heat production and heat gain exceed its ability to effectively dissipate heat and maintain thermal balance. High environmental temperatures, particularly when combined with elevated relative humidity, can significantly affect animal physiology and metabolism.

Potential effects include:

• Reduced feed intake
• Disruption of fluid and electrolyte balance
• Increased thermoregulatory demands
• Increased metabolic stress
• Reduced productive and reproductive performance
• Compromised animal welfare

FROM HEAT STRESS TO TARGETED NUTRITIONAL SUPPORT

Pharmacell’s approach is based on understanding the physiological and metabolic changes associated with heat stress and translating this knowledge into targeted nutritional strategies.

Our specialized solutions focus on five key areas:

• THERMOREGULATION
Supporting the animal’s physiological mechanisms of adaptation to high environmental temperatures.

• HYDRATION & ELECTROLYTE BALANCE
Supporting fluid and electrolyte balance under conditions of increased heat load.

• FEED INTAKE
Nutritional strategies designed to support feed intake under challenging environmental conditions.

• METABOLIC SUPPORT
Supporting metabolic function during periods of increased physiological stress.

• PRODUCTIVE PERFORMANCE & ANIMAL WELFARE
Supporting physiological function, productive performance and animal welfare during periods of elevated temperatures.

Pharmacell’s Mediterranean Expertise combines experience gained under real livestock production conditions with applied nutritional science, creating a specialized field of expertise for addressing the effects of heat stress in modern animal production.
