When Should I Feed Muscle & Topline to My Horse?

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.

EXPLAINED - THE 34 ACTIVE NUTRACEUTICALS IN MUSCLE & TOPLINE FOR HORSES

Nutraceuticals are products derived from food sources with extra health benefits in addition to their basic nutritional value.

Amino Acids (x14)

Essential for the creation and growth of muscles, connective tissue and skin to help maintain muscle tone, tissue strength and digestion. Promotes the healing and repair process within the body. Includes lysine (critical for tissue growth), cystine (increases muscle mass), threonine (an important amino acid, often deficient in an equine diet), arginine, glutamic acid, glycine, histidine, isoleucine, leucine, methionine, proline, tryptophan, tyrosine and valine.

Antioxidants (x5)

Vitamin C, vitamin E, selenium, curcumin & piperine work together to remove free radicals.

Digestible Milk Proteins (Whey Protein Concentrate)

Sources of readily digestible milk proteins that provide key amino acids for supporting the growth of all tissues with high protein contents, namely: muscles, ligaments, tendons, coat and hooves.

Digestible Oat Starch

Helps to maintain glycogen storage in muscle tissue to reduce muscle fatigue.

Hyaluronic Acid

Involved in the structural formation of cartilage and helps to cushion and lubricate the joints.

Minerals (x5)

Calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, sodium & manganese (protected) are essential for the nervous system and for normal growth and development, as well as supporting bone development and muscle contractions (all movement).

Omega 3 Fatty Acids

Anti-inflammatory omega 3 fatty acids provide a daily source of essential fat components, providing the correct dietary balance with pro-inflammatory omega 6. Omega 3's are also found in large concentrations in spermatozoa and are essential for maintaining cell wall integrity and preventing moisture/oil loss from the skin.

Rosemary Extract

Aids muscle recovery and circulation whilst adding a palatable flavour.

Vitamin B's (x4)

Biotin, vitamin B6, vitamin B12 and folic acid support the synthesis of protein and are essential for muscle growth and repair.

Vitamin D3

Crucial for bone development. Also important for the immune system, fertility and the release of insulin.

EXPLAINED - THE 4 ACTIVE NUTRACEUTICALS IN THE OATINOL DELIVERY SYSTEM

Nutraceuticals are products derived from food sources with extra health benefits in addition to their basic nutritional value.

Oatinol is a natural high quality oil based concept developed by and unique to GWF Nutrition. When incorporated into the feed it supplies the following four active nutraceuticals to:

Maintain gut cell integrity.
Maintain the lining of the gut.
Support the immune system.
Aid the absorption of active ingredients, vitamins and trace elements.

Galactolipid Natural Emulsifiers

?Galactolipids are a combination of sugar and fat molecules that create the perfect medium for the absorption of active ingredients across the gut wall.

Natural Tocotrienol Antioxidants

?Tocotrienol antioxidants are a natural form of vitamin E. They are 40-60 times more readily available than other forms of vitamin E and help to maintain the integrity of the cells forming the lining of the gut to aid absorption.

Oat Derived Beta Glucans

?Beta Glucans have prebiotic properties that support beneficial bacteria in the gut to promote healthy absorption.

Phospholipids

?Phospholipids have emulsifying properties and have been shown to actively influence nutrient digestibility and absorption.
