The principle

Plant fibres, with supplementary electrolytes

Linkapectin is a powder of plant fibres, pectins first, with supplementary electrolytes. Pectins are fibres that hold water and form a gel in the preparation.

It is compatible with milk: for calves, lambs and kids the powder is diluted in lukewarm water or milk and given with the meal; for piglets it is mixed in the feed. Water stays freely available and milk feeding continues.
