In this episode of The Dairy Nutrition Blackbelt Podcast, Dr. Danielle Sherlock explores the interactions between heat stress, rumen-protected methionine, and immune function in dairy cattle. She discussed how supplementation can mitigate the negative impacts of heat stress on immune function and overall metabolism. Tune in on major platforms to discover how these findings can transform dairy cattle management."Methionine supplementation helps to overcome negative effects of the transition period on immune function and oxidative stress."Meet the guest: Dr. Danielle Sherlock is the Ruminant Research and Innovation Science Manager at Adisseo. She has a rich academic background from Ohio State University and the University of Illinois. Her Ph.D. research concentrated on the metabolism of methyl donors, particularly under conditions of heat stress and negative energy balance in dairy cows. Dr. Sherlock's work offers valuable insights into nutritional strategies that enhance dairy cow health and productivity during stress periods.What will you learn: (00:00) Highlight(00:55) Introduction(02:19) Heat stress and immune cell activation(03:35) Effects of heat stress on metabolism(04:45) Insulin sensitivity under heat stress(06:31) Heat stress and immune function(07:19) Discussing methionine supplementation(08:19) Closing thoughtsThe Dairy Nutrition Blackbelt Podcast is trusted and supported by the innovative companies:* Adisseo- Volac
