Abstract
The studies were carried out on 30 calves from the 4th to the 25th day of life, divided in three groups; control, glucose and casein. The glucose group was fed a diet containing 25% more glucose than the control. The increased dietary glucose supply decreased cortisol concentration in blood serum. The casein group was fed a diet containing 25% more protein-casein-than the control. The increased dietary casein supply increased the blood serum cortisol concentration. The changes discussed were observed not only during the period of diet application, but also a few days following the termination of the diet.
