When should I feed Muscle Maintenance for Horses?

It is a fact that every muscle in your horse’s body undergoes constant tissue depletion and replenishment as a natural process. Providing all the essential components for maintaining high rates of muscle building and recovery whilst supporting minimal muscle loss are key to having a strong athletic horse.

• Amino Acids - High levels of 12 dietary amino acids, essential for the production of muscle tissue and to help maintain muscle tone, tissue strength and digestion as well as the healing and repair process in the body.
• Antioxidants - Vitamin C, Vitamin E, Cumcumin and Selenium work together to ‘mop up’ free radicals.
• Chondroitin - Essential for the resilience and regeneration of cartilage.
• Collagen Matrix - Essential for the structural framework of tendons, muscles and cartilage.
• Digestible Oat Starch - Helps to maintain glycogen storage in muscle tissue to reduce muscle fatigue.
• Folic Acid - Helps the body produce and maintain new cells.
• Hemp Oil Derived Omega 3 Fatty Acids - Crucial for maintaining the natural anti-inflammatory action of the body.
• Vitamin A - Essential for healthy eyesight, a strong bone structure, good fertility and an active immune system.
• Vitamin B12 - Essential for maintaining healthy blood flow to all areas of the body, crucial for the supply of active ingredients to maintain normal gut barrier defences and hoof integrity.
