Equine Performance, a supplement for horses, may support the antioxidant pathways associated with exercise.
- Contains whole foods and nutrients
Horses that train rigorously, travel, or compete may experience an inflammatory response, exercise-related muscle soreness, and oxidative stress. Diet, level and amount of exercise, age, and the nature of a training program are all factors that may play a role in maintaining a balance between oxidative stress and antioxidant status in the performance horse. Oxidative stress may result from decreased antioxidant activity, increased reactive oxygen species, or both. Horses in training may experience a physiological challenge and as a result, will attempt to regain homeostasis through the coordination of multiple organ systems. Dietary antioxidants may help the horse cope with rigorous athletic demands.
Indications for Use
- Horses preparing for, participating in, or recovering from competition
- Horses preparing for, participating in, or recovering from travel
- Horses in demanding or rigorous training programs
Feeding Tips
- Start slowly by mixing a small amount of powder into the feed.
- Add the powder to the feed and dampen it with water. (Spray bottles can be helpful.) Shake the container to mix the powder with the feed. This will also prevent the powder from settling in the bottom of the feeding container.
- Mix with unsweetened applesauce and add to the horse’s feed or syringe directly into the horse’s mouth.
- Add to a mash of commonly found low-starch pelleted feeds or soaked hay cubes.
Suggested Use: ¼ cup (30 g) per 1,000 lb. horse per day, or as directed. 28-day supply. The enclosed scoop holds ¼ cup.
