Really?"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>We have a customer who has a Jersey cow with a chronic case of mastitis in one quarter. It almost goes away, comes back, fades&#8230; but never completely clears up. I offered him the combination that helped Cookie cow over come a bad case of mastitis a couple of years ago&#8230; vitamins!!!!<\/p>\n<p>I gave Cookie some vitamin E, vitamin C and then a few multivitamins. I also used Today teat injectible in the infected quarters. Hit it from all sides!!!! From what I&#8217;d read, the Vitamin E was the greatest aid, but none of them hurt and quite honestly, I swear by the cocktail of vitamins. I haven&#8217;t had any issues with chronic mastitis this year!!!<\/p>\n<p>The dosage depends on the size of the cow, and Cookie is a BIG girl. She&#8217;s half Guernsey \/ half Jersey, so I did 3 times the people dose and dropped a couple of extra vitamin E in for good measure. I am really hoping that our customer&#8217;s cow responds equally as well. I remember the frustration of a year with two cows taking turns battling mastitis.
