International Ingredient Dextrose is a white crystalline sugar produced by enzymatic conversion of corn starch, is the monohydrate form of glucose. It is mildly sweet (about 70% the sweetness of sucrose), highly fermentable, and a natural flavor enhancer. Dextrose is a carbohydrate energy source, feed intake enhancer, and natural sweetener that is commonly used in dairy and veal calf diets.

International Ingredient Lactose is a milk sugar (a disaccharide of glucose and galactose with one molecule of water) fractionated and crystallized from whey streams during the cheese-making process. Lactose is commonly found in milk substitutes and dry starter feeds for dairy and veal calves. Lactose, as a nutrient, is thought to be essential for calves' optimal performance and gut health. Typical inclusion levels range from 5 to 20% of the diet.

International Ingredient Solu-E is high in highly digestible sugars, oligosaccharides, and fat. Solu-primary E's oligosaccharide fraction is glucose polymers derived from corn syrup solids, which are easily digestible in young animals. Casein from milk is the protein component. Solu-palatability, E's digestibility, and high energy content make it an excellent ingredient for calf milk replacers. In calf milk replacers, the recommended inclusion rate ranges from 5% to 10%.
