When choosing what supplements you are including in your horses diet, it is essential to make sure that: 1) What they say is in the bag is actually what's in the bag, and 2) There is reasearch supporting the fact that those ingredients actually do what they said they will. There are hundreds of options avalible, and very few meet both of those criteria. The following are what we use on our own horses and recommend to our clients.
Platinum Stallion Support is designed to support normal reproductive function in stallions. As a source of fat-soluble and water-soluble antioxidants and omega-3 fatty acids, this formula helps to protect sperm from damage caused by free radicals.
Platinum Muscle Support provides amino acids, electrolytes and antioxidants to help maintain muscle strength, support performance stamina and promote normal post-exercise recovery. This potent formula supports horses’ recovery and should be given within two hours before exercise and one hour after exertion.
Rich in omega-3 fatty acids, Healthy Weight is supportive in many ways including skin, coat, gastric, and muscle health. For horses that need to gain weight, Healthy Weight provides calories in addition to forage. It is made from flax oil, a rich source of omega-3 fatty acids, which makes it a healthy alternative to corn oil.
Silicon is an important element to maintain healthy bones, tendons and ligaments in the horse. Osteon® contains a highly bio-available natural form of silicon called zeolite to support strong and healthy bones.
Vitamin E works as a natural antioxidant to help maintain normal immune function and support the equine body’s ability to confront free radical activity. It is often used in performance horses that experience temporary muscle soreness or to support neurological health.
Platinum Dermal Support is a unique formula designed to support healthy skin and hair coat in horses. The ingredients Aurantiochytrium sp. (an algal source of DHA) and Quercetin work to maintain a healthy immune system and normal histamine levels.
Selenium activates the antioxidant enzyme Glutathione Peroxidase and provides the body with nerve, muscle and joint support. Selenium is also essential for enhancing the antioxidant effects of Vitamin E.
