Horse Vitamins, Minerals and Overall Health

Hygain Regain is rapid electrolyte replacer formulated for horses to replace body salts lost during exercise, hot climatic conditions and as an aid in the treatment of dehydration, hypochloraemia and alkalosis.

Ingredients:
Contains 215g/kg sodium, 468.5g/kg chloride, 152g/kg potassium and 17.25g/kg magnesium.

Sodium and Chloride: Common salt (NaCl), which is composed of two ions, sodium (Na+) and chloride (Cl-). They are the major electrolytes of the body.

Potassium: One of potassium’s major roles is to maintain and ensure correct cellular osmotic pressure which affects the sensitivity of nerves and muscles to impulses. Horses suffering from a lack of potassium are prone to fatigue, muscle weakness, exercise intolerance, tying-up and decreased water intake.

Magnesium: Magnesium plays a critical role as a co-factor inver 300 enzymatic reactions within the body. Magnesium is also requires for muscle function and is essential for DNA to send messages to he cells.

Calcium: Deficiencies of calcium in its ionic form may lead to muscle weakness and condition s such as tying up and ‘thumps’.

Livamol with BioWorma is a nutritional supplement containing the natural biological control, BioWorma, that captures and consumes infective worm larvae (including chemical resistant/anthelmintic multi-resistant larvae) within the manure of grazing animals.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE

Dosage and Administration: Dose Livamol with BioWorma according to bodyweight.

1. For best results, treat animals with a suitable chemical wormer/anthelmintic.

2. Ideally, where possible, move the treated animals onto low worm pasture (that is, pasture that has not been grazed by the same animal species for a minimum 6 weeks).

3. The most worm susceptible are young animals (from 3 months up to 18-24 months of age) and periparturient females (last month of pregnancy and while producing milk) as they are the most likely to have less resistance to worm infestation due to low immunity. Pasture contamination by adult stock, even with low faecal egg counts (FEC), should not be underestimated considering the volume of faecal material they place on pasture.

4. Commence daily feeding of Livamol with BioWorma to minimise pasture infectivity and maintain the animalÍs low worm status. The product will not reduce pre-existing larval pasture contamination. Thoroughly mix Livamol with BioWorma with feed or feed supplements.

5. Livamol with BioWorma will begin to work immediately within the manure of treated animals, and for best results may be fed continuously when climatic conditions are conducive to BioWorma and parasitic nematode activity.

6. Livamol with BioWorma is recommended for strategic use during periods when weather conditions are conducive to larval development and transmission onto pasture at temperatures above 5 degrees Celsius.

7. Use in conjunction with a recommended worm management strategy for your area by contacting your Veterinarian, Animal Health Advisor or Government Advisory groups for a strategic Integrated Parasite Management (IPM) plan. It is important to consider the principles of refugia.

8. Faecal egg counts (FECs) may be useful to monitor the effectiveness of the worm management strategy. Other options may include faecal egg count reduction test (FECRT) and/or identifying worm species by using faecal larval cultures (FLC).

For oral administration. The required amount of BioWorma should be thoroughly mixed into feed, supplements, premixes, concentrates or loose mixes.

DAILY FEEDING RATES

* Dose according to the heaviest animal in the group. ** Use an additional 100g for each 100kg thereafter. A standard coffee mug (300mL) holds 200g Livamol with Bioworma.

WITHHOLDING PERIOD: Meat: Zero (0) days; Milk: NIL Zero (0) days

Equine Vit&Min Omega-3 Plus

Farmalogic Equine Vit&Min Omega-3 Plus is a comprehensive vitamin, mineral and omega-3 supplement designed to help balance modern equine diets, particularly for horses with limited access to fresh pasture.

Combining essential vitamins, trace minerals, probiotics and a concentrated source of omega-3 fatty acids, Omega-3 Plus provides nutritional support for coat condition, hoof quality, joint health, immune function and overall wellbeing.

Ideal for performance horses, breeding stock, growing horses and horses fed predominantly on hay, Omega-3 Plus helps fill common nutritional gaps while supporting a balanced omega-3 to omega-6 ratio.

Key Benefits

• Provides essential vitamins and minerals commonly lacking in forage-based diets.
• Contains omega-3 fatty acids to help balance diets high in omega-6.

• Helps maintain normal joint function and mobility.
• Includes probiotics to support digestive health.
• Contains natural vitamin E for antioxidant support.
• Suitable for horses with limited access to fresh pasture.
• Palatable and easy to mix into daily feeds.

Why Omega-3 Matters

Fresh pasture naturally contains high levels of omega-3 fatty acids. However, these beneficial nutrients decline rapidly once grass is cut and dried into hay. Horses consuming large amounts of hay or hard feed can therefore receive significantly more omega-6 fatty acids than omega-3.

Omega-3 Plus provides a concentrated source of omega-3 fatty acids, including EPA and DHA, helping to restore a more balanced dietary fatty acid profile while supplying essential vitamins, minerals and probiotics.

Suitable For

• Performance horses
• Sport and racing horses
• Breeding mares and stallions
• Growing horses and young stock
• Show horses
• Hay-fed horses
• Horses with limited access to quality pasture

Feeding Guide

Mix the recommended daily amount into slightly dampened feed. The daily serving may be divided between two feeds if preferred. Scoop included.

Available Sizes

• 4kg Bag

Note: If feeding a fortified pellet or muesli feed, the recommended feeding rate may need adjustment. Always provide access to fresh clean water and an appropriate source of salt.

Kohnke's Own Donkey Supreme is a scientifically blended supplement which provides all major minerals, trace-minerals and vitamins to correct low or inadequate levels in the diets of breeding, growing, working and aged donkeys.

Many donkeys are used to keep the grass mown in small areas and house paddocks and often graze weeds and rough plants which horses and other animals leave. They are gentle, lovable companion animals which don't need high energy prepared feeds or grain based diets. Often their rations are low or inadequate in bone minerals, trace-minerals and vitamins necessary to meet their needs for growth, pregnancy and general good health and longevity. Aged donkeys often suffer bone and arthritic problems.

Donkey Supreme has been formulated to make-up the short falls in the diets of donkeys when grazing on grass pastures, browsing on plants and being fed poor quality diets based on hay and straw to avoid laminitis and to maintain them. Donkey Supreme is the world's first supplement for donkeys of all ages and activity.

Features:

• Based on a blend of 3 cold-pressed Supplet pellets to NRC (2007) guidelines for donkeys.
• The innovative Supplet blend eliminates sift-out, dust, sludging and nutrient interaction in feeds - in fact, many donkeys at grass can be offered the supplement off the hand or mixed in a small amount of chaff or finely chopped carrots or apples as a treat.
• Provides bone minerals for growing and aged donkeys of all sizes.
• Simply calculate the dose rate relative to your donkey's body weight.
• Regular supplementation with Donkey Supreme will help to maintain health and vitality, optimum coat condition and assist the immune response.

Donkey Supreme - it's not just a horse supplement, it is a supreme supplement especially formulated for donkeys to meet their specific nutrient needs and dietary balance.

SIZES: 1.4kg; 4kg;  10kg

Handy Hint: Give your donkey(s) a regular treat of Donkey Supreme off the hand – even twice weekly is adequate for middle-aged donkeys! Growing, pregnant or aged donkeys may require daily supplement to meet their specific nutrient needs.

CEN Ulcer Protect is a unique natural formulation that may help reduce, heal and protect the stomach from the incidence of ulcers. This all-natural, non-medicated formulation may assist with:

• Healthy gut lining support
• Ulcers healing
• Elimination of ulcer formation in the stomach.

WHY USE CEN ULCER PROTECT?

• HYDROLYSED COLLAGEN PEPTIDES

Studies into the effectiveness of Hydrolysed Collagen Peptides for Ulcers in horses has shown that Hydrolyzed Collagen-fed horses had fewer and less severe ulcers throughout the trial. Significantly fewer ulcers were seen after 56 days of feeding. Hydrolyzed Collagen also lowered the severity of gastric ulcers in stall-confined horses undergoing stall confinement and feed stress (Hydrolysed Collagen And Ulcer Study).

• GASTRIC CELLULAR SUPPORT

Fermented Legume by Lactobacillus delbrueckii lactis Rosell 187 may help decrease squamous ulcer scores in horses (Fermented Legume Study). 

• ORGANIC TURMERIC

Turmeric in the research showed suppression of the formation of stomach ulcers

• SLIPPERY ELM BARK

Contains high amounts of mucilage that adheres to the gastrointestinal tract, soothing and coating injured and inflamed tissues, helping them to heal and reducing the likelihood of scarring, as well as drawing out toxins and irritants.

• GELATIN HYDROLYSATE

Gelatin’s short peptides – glyprolines – consist of amino acids of glycine and proline. They protect the stomach mucous tunic from injuries. Glyprolines are easily absorbed in the stomach and remain in the blood for a long time without breaking up. They act not only on the stomach cells but also on the central nervous system overcoming the blood-brain barrier, therefore they help prevent the ulcers caused by stress.

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CEN ULCER PROTECT AND ULCER MEDICATION

Ulcer medications (e.g Ulcerguard) turn down/block acid production in the horse’s stomach (proton pump inhibitor).  CEN Ulcer Protect does not inhibit the natural acid pump action. It helps protect and heal the stomach wall with high-quality ingredients without side effects.
Stomach acid is vital for protein digestion and absorption of key vitamins and minerals such as calcium and magnesium. The acid in the stomach is also important as a barrier against micro-organisms and parasites in the environment entering further down the digestive system.
Ulcers in horses can occur n the Foregut and Hindgut. Long term use of ulcer medication can be risky. Evidence from human research indicates that long term use of Omeprazole impacts calcium absorption, which has been linked to an increased risk of osteoporosis where bones become weak and there is the risk of fracture. Short term use would be a lower risk.
This has caused some nutritionists and researchers in equine nutrition to question the long term use of Omeprazole in horses. Dr. Juliet Getty – internationally respected independent equine nutritionist, believes that concerns are reasonable because what happens in a horse’s stomach is not that different from human digestion.
“What happens in humans is that these medications not only reduce protein digestion, but they also inhibit the absorption of key minerals and vitamins, such as magnesium, calcium, vitamin D, and vitamin B12” said Getty.
