The experiment was carried out at Itaboapaba Farm, in Silveira Martins RS, Brazil, and was conducted from March 1 up to June 30, 2006, taking 122 days. This study was composed by 20 heifers Jersey race, with average weight of 199 kg and average age of 12 months. The heifers were divided randomly into two treatments: (1) control, in which the basic diet was supplied; (2) Rumex®, in which five gram/animal of phytogenic additive based on vegetal extract were added to the commercial concentrated. The blood sample analysed was removed from the tail vein, between 2º and 3º tail vertebra. The experimental delineation was entirely casualized, with two treatments and ten repetitions. For effect of evaluation of the zootecnic variables, they were taken into account: initial average weight, final average weight, gain of daily average weight. For effect of evaluation of the biochemist variables, they were taken into account: amino aspartate transferase (AST), creatinine, urea, glucose, lactate, proteins, triacilglycerol, cholesterol, albumen, lipoprotein of high density (HDL). For effect of evaluation of the hematologic variables, they were taken into account: counting of hemácias, level of hemoglobin, percentage of hematócrito, counting of leukocytes, counting of segmented neutrófilos, counting of linfócitos, counting of monócitos and counting of eosinófilos. For effect of evaluation of the physiological variables, they were taken into account: body temperature, respiratory frequency and cardiac frequency. The control group animals gained 40.62Kg in 122 days of experiment while the animals supplemented with Rumex® gained 45.39Kg in the same period, presenting a difference of 10.51%, however not significant (P> 0.05). The levels of glucose and triacilglycerol presented significant difference of 5 and 13% respectively between the treatments, demonstrating superior average values in the Rumex®. The linfócitos presented significant difference of 18.29% between the treatments having demonstrated superior average in the Control. The other variables did not present significant difference (P> 0.05) between the treatments. The body temperature, respiratory frequency and cardiac frequency did not present significant difference (P> 0.05) between the treatments. Thus, we can conclude that the use of hytogenic additives is recommended for animals of high production that need a better exploitation the food in an energetic deficit or for animals just weaned
