Dairy cows are the most typical and common cows that will get ketosis. Symptoms include loss of appetite, decreased milk production, weight loss, acetone (stinky) breath, nervousness, mucus-covered hard feces, and even will become downers. In confined operations, the best signs are cows that have a reduced appetite and seem to go more for the fodder than the grain in their rations.
One of the features of ketosis is that it occurs as a result of partially oxidized fats. The level of ketosis should be low in the body.
Mastitis, ketosis, milk fever and tetany are probably the most common disease that a Jersey cow would face during her life time.
Downer cow syndrome is attributed to many causes, and is particularly associated with nerve damage in the hips and legs due to calving problems, milk fever, ketosis, and BSE. Now I believe you are referring to Mad Cow disease (or BSE) when asking about postmortem lesions, as this is the case when a cow that contracted BSE has found to have lesions in the brain when a post mortem is done on her.
What Is Ketosis? Ketosis is a process that happens when your body doesn't have enough carbohydrates to burn for energy. Instead, it burns fat and makes things called ketones, which it can use for fuel. Ketosis is a word you'll probably see when you're looking for information on diabetes or weight loss.
Ketosis occurs when the levels of ketone bodies increase, particularly during a low carbohydrate weight loss program. The features of ketosis include headache, breath that smells of acetone and a lack of energy.
