Algalsorb - Optimising Bone Mineralisation in Young Stock & Mares
DESCRIPTION
ALGALSORB is a unique bone mineralisation product that combines the natural power of calcified seaweed with Vitamin D, to increase calcium uptake and mineral absorption. It is specially formulated by expert equine nutritionists for weanlings, yearlings and lactating mares.
Algalsorb helps to optimise bone development and strength utilising the natural power of Vitamin D to stimulate calcium uptake and fixation.
The majority of bone mineralisation in foals occurs during the last three months of pregnancy and the first three months of lactation. This is the most important period for supplementation as a lot of mares are unable to access mineral rich pasture at this time of year.
This product has been carefully designed to balance minerals and nutrients required when feeds and forages are replacing constant grazing. The Maerl buffers the stomach so that maximum absorption of the minerals occurs.
This is one of the two key points. Absorption cannot be efficient if the stomach is too acidic which often happens when mares are housed or in open hardcore pens. The Vitamin D present is also proved to increase the uptake.
The ingredients are chosen to support skeletal development and improve coat condition.
They are designed to do the following:
Maerl is a unique calcified seaweed has been shown to help buffer gastric acid and provides the slow release of the essential nutrients (calcium, magnesium and trace elements)
Vitamin D increases calcium uptake and fixation.
Trace Minerals - chelated copper and zinc for increased bioavailability.
Omega 3 fatty acids - support bone development and improve coat condition
Additional amino acids - lysine, methionine and threonine to support optimal bone, muscle and connective tissue development.
The carefully selected ingredients work in synergy to enhance bioavailability and absorption to help maintain optimal bone, muscle formation and conditioning.
