Macro Minerals
Calcium Total skeletal bone growth and

alike Phosphorus Reacts with calcium to
maximize bone, teeth antler growth Potassium
Plays a key role in feed intake and
digestion Sulfur Is very important for
optimal growth and over all health Sodium
Makes up approx. 92 of the basic mineral
elements of the blood serum. Salt Comprised
of Sodium and Chlorine and is critical for a
deers overall health and stable water balance
within the body Magnesium Crucial for
antler development and re-acts with calcium
11
Trace Minerals
Manganese Plays a crucial role in deers
metabolism. Works as a synergistic medium with
calcium , phosphorus, magnesium and B-1
vitamins.  Copper Plays the central role in
the formation of healthy blood cells and is
necessay for hemoglobin formation. MOST
important enzyme in a body for the control of
free radical proteins.   Zinc Important for
maximizing overall body growth, wound healing and
general immune system functions. Assists in
inter-reactions with Vitamin B - 12, calcium and
phosphorus.  Iodine Used as a controlling
mechanism of thyroid gland functionality
  Selenium Essential micro-nutrient for the
optimal health of deer and elk. Interacts with
Vitamin E in a synergistic cooperative manner
within the cervid metabolism. Cobalt
Necessary component of Vitamin B 12 synthesis
through the gut bacteria area   Iron Has a
wide variety of functions in a deer or elk body.
Cellular respiration depends on proper levels of
iron, and iron in the metal chelate of
hemoglobin, which is the oxygen carrying
mechanism of the blood. Red blood cells and
several enzymes depend on proper levels of iron
in the system as well.

Basic Vitamins
Vitamin A Stimulates formation and development
of a deers body cells . Necessary for bone
teeth formation. A fat soluble vitamin that
stores itself in the body Vitamin D Is
critical for optimal antler development and works
in conjunction with calcium phosphorus. A fat
soluble vitamin. Vitamin E Most important
function is to maintain the ability of the
cellular membranes to function properly. Usually
discussed in relation to selenium. Fat soluble
vitamin. Vitamin B-1 Thiamin is a water soluble
vitamin that can be synthesized by intestinal
microbes of all deer species. It is absorbed with
water and storage is very limited in the deer
body and thus, must be available DAILY from the
diet or via body microbe synthesis. Essential to
maintain the cervid metabolism. In 1982 the
National Research Council identified two
compounds that can either destroy Thiamin prior
to its absorption or interfere with overall
metabolism. These compounds are called
Thiaminase. Of particular interest to those of us
who deal with deer, is the fact that this
compound can be produced by rumen bacteria when
CORN diets are fed or present in the deers
diet.              
14
Additional B Vitamins
Vitamin B-2 Riboflavin is an essential water
soluble vitamin that plays an important role in
the metabolic process of carbohydrates, fats and
proteins found in the food a deer eats. Vitamin
B-3 Niacin is a water soluble vitamin that
plays many roles in the deers body. From aiding
the digestive tract, to maintaining the nervous
system and even the reproductive organs. Vitamin
B-5 Pantothinic Acid is a water soluble vitamin
that helps builds the deers body cells.
Extremely important for the utilization of other
vitamins which effects overall body
health. Vitamin B-6 Pyridoxine is water soluble
vitamin which is probably involved in more bodily
functions than any other vitamin. Deficiency
symptoms can include a loss of appetite, retarded
growth and even hair loss. Vitamin B-12 This
vitamin works with cobalt in the intestine
system, and we speculate that due to present
agriculture practices, self synthesis is marginal
at best. Works also with folic acid and zinc to
form critical DNA from which traits are
inherited.
15
Vitamins Continued
Vitamin C A water soluble vitamin of asorbic
acid which protects a deers body and rapidly
growing antlers from interference of damage
during growth. Most widely known use is the
functionality of this vitamin that is essential
for a functional immune system. Deficiencies of
Vitamin C include weight loss, retarded growth,
weak bones, loose teeth and a weakened immune
system. Biotin (H or B) Water soluble vitamin
that is important in food metabolism and the
overall utilization of the other B vitamins which
a deer needs. Works as a multiplier for ALL B
vitamins Folic Acid (B9) Also known as a B
complex vitamin which is water soluble and is
essential to the health of all types of cervids.
Vital for normal growth and development and is
important for normal cell replication and cell
division. Important for the proper nerve cell
development in fetal fawns or elk calves.

Why Loose ?CONSUMPTION !

Why loose granular minerals/vitamins over
blocks? Loose granular mineral/vitamins are more
readily absorbed and used because its natural
for wildlife to consume their minerals/vitamins
from the ground. It takes along time to have
mother nature break down blocks for the wildlife
to consume. Wildlife gets full advantage out of
loose granular minerals/vitamins. Why loose
granular minerals/vitamins over loose
salt? Loose salt will attract wildlife but will
not offer wildlife the necessary
minerals/vitamins for year around wildlife
nutrition.

So what does all this mean?
Quality is everything in a mineral vitamin
supplemental program. What most of the
competitors dont tell you, is that of ALL the
feed grade ingredients, the deterioration of the
vitamins used, is TREMENDOUS! Most vitamin A is
gone before the product hits the shelf and
vitamin E is not far behind. Not with Vita-Rack
26! This PATENTED process utilizes only the best
ingredients that will last last. Weather is not
a deterrent, whether rain, sleet or snow, Vita
Rack 26 is there for your herd to benefit in a
year round environment. We dare you to compare!

How to improve Overall Genetics

• Minerals/Vitamins
• Are essential year around key elements needed for
  whitetail deer in order to maximize the overall
  health and nutrition to produce trophy deer.
  VITA-RACK 26 will also help maintain and hold
  wildlife to your area.
• Nutrition/Food Plots/Water
• Make sure you have food and water available all
  year round. Different food plots at different
  times of the year to make sure there is nutrition
  and protein throughout the year.
• Management Is
• An opportunity to make sure minerals and vitamins
  are checked monthly. Food plots are worked,
  planted, and maintained. Food plots are also
  planted for year around feed and nutrients.
  Wildlife is balanced in your area with a
  selective harvest program and maintained for
  years to produce trophy wildlife.
• Wildlife Habitat/Cover
• Producing cover for wildlife with cool and warm
  season grasses, along with trees and brush for a
  wildlife bedding area. A creek or river or ponds
  for water and other wildlife. Food plots create
  cover also. Depending on your area there are a
  lot of different wildlife habitat/cover
  possibilities.
• Genetics
• Genetics play an important role in the overall
  wildlife management plan. Having a management
  plan, will help make your wildlife trophies.
  Eventually females and males will reproduce and
  with the help of all the ideal contributing
  factors brought to your herd by using VITA-RACK
  26, it will help create and improve your overall
  genetics.

How to Use

• Place Vita-Rack 26 near wildlife trails or other
  areas frequently used by wildlife.
• Starting a new feeding station.
• Make sure the ground is clear of leaves and
  debris before starting.
• Loosen the ground with a rake, leaving an
  indentation 2-3 ft. in diameter, to help prevent
  run-off from heavy rain.
• Pour ¾ of a 5 lb. bag into the indentation and
  mix into the ground. Pour remainder of bag on top
  of ground.
• Existing feeding stations.
• Deer instinctively seek out the nutrition they
  need. When they find your site theyll visit it
  frequently, so we recommend that you refresh the
  site monthly.
• To refresh, simply pour a 5 lb. bag of Vita-Rack
  26 on the existing lick-site and mix into the
  ground.
• Every 40 acres, depending on terrain, should have
  a feeding station. Vita-Rack 26 should be used
  year around for the necessary minerals/vitamins
  for wildlife nutrition. This will help to achieve
  a well managed wildlife area.
• Do not offer any additional salt at the feeding
  station.
• Easy to use and maintain.
