Why Peer-Reviewed Trace Mineral Research is Important

Trace mineral nutrition plays an important role in preventing viral infections and in the immune response if an animal does become infected. Discover how trace minerals can help prevent virus replication in animals.

Once an animal’s immune system recognizes a virus in the body, it starts an inflammatory response to kill the virus. Learn how the immune system works to protect animals from viral infections.

When viruses infect animals, it can affect growth, performance, reproduction and even lead to death. Learn more about how viruses work and how they can be controlled with vaccines, medications and enhanced biosecurity.
