Anitone is an Australian made, natural organic liquid mineral and trace element feed supplement for all animals. Anitone provides over 60 minerals and trace elements in a highly bioavailable, chelated form to supplement the diets of all domestic animals.
Why Anitone?
Anitone is the only liquid animal supplement available on the market for animal production with such a comprehensive range of ingredients, containing not only essential minerals, but also amino acids, and Vitamins A, D and Vitamin E.
Anitone is the only feed supplement on the market that is fermented in a process that mimics natural digestive processes, and is therefore highly palatable and relished by most animals.
How is Anitone made?
Anitone is derived from a careful manufacturing process that involves the fermentation of mineral rich plant extracts together with common stockfeed ingredients, such as molasses. This fermentation process enhances the value of all the ingredients contained in Anitone, and elevates it from a regular stock feed supplement to a "super food".
Vitamins and minerals that have been absorbed into plants form complex molecules called "phytocomplexes". These complicated natural substances cannot be reproduced in a laboratory and are becoming increasingly recognized as superior dietary sources of many nutrients. As the fermentation process used in making Anitone mimics digestion, the vitamins and minerals it contains thus become highly bioavailable to gut microflora immediately after dosing over the tongue, or mixing in feed or water.
There are over 60 minerals contained in Anitone, along with good levels of Vitamin A, D and E, plus a range of amino acids essential for growth and metabolism. In addition, Anitone provides a wide variety of plant origin volatile oils, chlorophyll, sterols, growth factors, alginates, humic and fulvic acids, vitamins and trace minerals, including many trace minerals such as selenium, zinc, iron, copper, cobalt, zinc, chromium, boron, manganese, nickel, vanadium – some of these more obscure elements are being proven by modern research to have emerging roles in maintaining peak metabolic function.
Most of these nutrients are also fundamental to maintaining healthy gut microflora, which perform the real work of digestion for the animal.
Many of these nutrients may be missing from modern diets, especially when they contain processed food, or from marginal pastures during harsh seasons, or may easily become depleted in times of stress and high physical demand.
The addition of Anitone to any animal production operation therefore ensures that animals gain maximum benefit from their daily food due to its supportive effect on gut microflora. However Anitone is a truly multi-tasking product because it can also be used in a bolus dose down the throat to revive a depressed or weakened animal, or to change mental attitude and enable the animal to cope with stress. For this reason, Anitone is a very useful product for animal owners to use to buffer the stress of the transport journey itself, or period of travelling away from home to competitions or sales.
How to Use Anitone:
Anitone is highly water soluble, and is designed for oral use which can be in a variety of ways to suit many operations.
- May be used as an oral drench and mixes well with most water soluble commercial drenches and will not damage drench gun rubbers, animal's mouths or human skin as it is a completely natural product.
- May be poured over feed rations, or mixed through them – either pour over the total ration (calculate per head dose or use at 5% ration), or can be poured or sprayed onto hay, or sprayed over grain via a grain applicator, (standard rate to spray into grain of 10 litres liquid per ton, using 5 litres Anitone mixed with 5 litres water)
- May be added to drinking water wherever there is good flow through watering systems, and may be added to overhead tanks or distributed into sheds and troughs, providing water is not allowed to become stagnant. If added to drinking water, use at rate of 2%, or calculate dose per head according to known water consumption.
- Is useful as a single shotgun dose if not convenient to give regularly, but works best when adapted to frequent and regular doses, at least once or twice weekly if possible. May also be given daily to show and performance animals, or animals that are in recovery or subjected to repeatedly stressful conditions.

Vitamin C is an important antioxidant for dogs – assisting immune system function, helping to neutralize free radicals in their bodies, protecting cells from damage, reducing inflammation and cognitive ageing. Although dogs, unlike humans, can make their own Vitamin C in their liver, they produce lower amounts in times of stress or sickness. So supplementation can be beneficial.
Vitamin C is an vital organic compound within a horse’s body, aiding in collagen production, iron absorption, hormone synthesis, bone calcification, regulation of antihistamine and supporting their immune system. Vitamin C is also a powerful antioxidant, helping to protect cells from damage.
Unlike humans, horses can synthesize their own Vitamin C from glucose in their livers – however deficiency can arise during period of stress or illness. A lack of Vitamin C can lead to several health problems in horses, including poor wound healing, reduced immunity, and joint pain.
Sodium Ascorbate is a form of Vitamin C that is more easily absorbed by the body than Ascorbic Acid, making it an ideal choice for dogs & horses. In addition, it is non-toxic and safe for dogs of all sizes.
KEY FEATURES:
• Post-operative and post-trauma dogs & horses
• Dogs & horses suffering from wounds, infections or diseases, emotional stress or anxiety
• Competition dogs & horses e.g endurance, sled dogs, eventers, race horses
• Inflammatory conditions
• Dogs & horses with heaves or allergies
• Older dogs & horses with chronic infections or decreased immunity
Why Sodium Ascorbate?
CEN Vitamin C uses Sodium Ascorbate, a highly effective, more easily absorbed form of Vitamin C.
It is pH neutral (pH 7.4) as opposed to acidic Ascorbic Acid (pH 3.0). Therefore Sodium Ascorbate does not irritate the intestinal tract or kidneys.
The body easily absorbs sodium ascorbate, and studies have also shown that it stays in the system twice as long as the acid form. Sodium ascorbate is the only form of vitamin C approved by the FDA for intravenous injection in humans.
BENEFITS:
IMMUNE SYSTEM
Vitamin C is a natural immune system booster. When absorbed into the body, it helps increase the number of antibodies responsible for fighting toxins, bacteria and viruses.
ALLERGIES
Vitamin C helps relieve allergy symptoms because it acts as an antihistamine, a compound that counteracts histamine and fights inflammation.
COLLAGEN
Vitamin C helps the production of collagen, a vital tissue that promotes joint and bone health.
INTERFERON
Vitamin C boosts dogs' & horses' levels of interferon, a natural antibody that helps fight viral infections and cancerous growths.
ABSORPTION
Supplementing Vitamin C has been linked to helping the absorption rate of other nutrients in the diet (or supplement).
ANTIOXIDANT
Vitamin C is a vital antioxidant for dogs & horses. They need it to maintain a healthy, lustrous coat. Vitamin C usually combines with Vitamin E to maintain their appearance.

The availability and necessity of vitamin E in equine diets is well established. When healthy horses are given frequent access to fresh green forage such as good quality pasture, there is little need for supplementation of vitamin E. However, many horses today are managed without fresh forage in their diets. These horses can survive in such management systems, but they will likely not be consuming sufficient vitamin E for optimal health.
Vitamin E is first and foremost an antioxidant, an agent that keeps free radicals from forming and potentially weakening cells and tissues. In addition to its antioxidant responsibilities, vitamin E is vital to immune, cardiovascular, circulatory, neuromuscular, and reproductive functions. Therefore, supplementation with an effective vitamin E supplement is recommended for all horses that do not consume a significant quantity of green pasture.
Natural Vitamin E is preferred.
Research has revealed that vitamin E varies in its potency, based on whether it is natural or synthetic. The chemical structures of synthetic and natural vitamin E differ. Natural vitamin E is recognized as "d-alpha-tocopherol," and is made up of a single isomer. Synthetic vitamin E, termed "dl-alpha tocopherol," contains a mixture of eight different isomers, four tocopherols and four tocotrienols. Of these eight, only one is molecularly equivalent to natural vitamin E. Sources of natural vitamin E, especially Nano E, more effectively raise serum levels when compared to synthetic.
To make alpha-tocopherol stable for use in most supplements, it must be chemically joined with an acid during manufacture, a process called esterification. The acid, in this case acetate, acts as a padlock or protective cap that shields alpha-tocopherol from the damages caused by exposure to oxidative forces. Without esterification, alpha-tocopherol can quickly denature, losing its antioxidant properties and rendering it ineffective.
Once ingested, esterified alpha-tocopherol is subjected to normal digestive enzymes. A certain group of enzymes called esterases are chemically capable of unlocking the padlock created through esterification. Once free, alpha-tocopherol is available for absorption with its antioxidant properties intact.
Delivering Vitamin E Eficiently.
Fat-soluble vitamins like vitamin E must be offered to horses in a way that maximizes absorption. Because it is not mixed with other ingredients, the vitamin E in Nano E does not need to be protected by esterification, but it must become water-soluble or dispersible in liquid. This presents a challenge: As everyone knows, oil and water don't mix.
Each water-soluble vitamin E nanoparticle in Nano E is encapsulated or surrounded by liposomes, which allows the nanoparticle to mix evenly throughout a water-based environment such as the gastrointestinal tract. Researchers developed a method by which fat-soluble vitamins can be absorbed with great efficiency. Because of its oily nature, vitamin E is hydrophobic (water-shunning). To overcome this, researchers use proprietary technology to encapsulate the vitamin E in nanoparticles and then surround each nanoparticle with a hydrophilic (water-loving) outer layer. The hydrophilic outer layer, allows the nanoparticles to be rapidly and evenly released in water-based environments such as the gastrointestinal tract.
The greatest benefit of this unique delivery system is an increase in the bioavailability of vitamin E. The more vitamin E that is absorbed into the bloodstream, the more available it is for use as a body-wide antioxidant essential for tissue repair and for its imperative roles in various body systems.
Controlled studies at Kentucky Equine Research indicate that Nano E is superior to synthetic and other natural vitamin E sources.
USES:
Confinement.
Horses that do not have access to pasture may not be consuming optimal levels of vitamin E. Nano E provides this essential vitamin in a form that is easily absorbed, and is appropriate for horses of all ages that are stabled due to training schedules, travel, or injury.
Performance.
Horses asked to work strenuously benefit from Nano E. A regular schedule of training and competition makes performance horses susceptible to muscle damage, which is due largely to oxidative stress. Nano E provides fast acting antioxidant protection for hard-working horses.
Breeding.
Appropriate for broodmares and stallions, Nano E provides optimal antioxidant protection. Broodmares benefit from increased fertility and increased transfer of passive immunity to their foals. Vitamin E supplementation has been linked to increased libido and semen quality in stallions.
Neurological problems.
Veterinarians and researchers have found that vitamin E supplementation often helps in recovery from certain neurological problems. Nano E provides natural-source vitamin E in a form that is quickly absorbed.
Stressful events.
Prior to relocation, long-distance travel, weaning, or other stress inducing events, Nano E provides a boost to antioxidant and immune defenses.
Convalescence.
Following injuries such as lacerations, puncture wounds, or burns, the addition of Nano E to the diet will increase antioxidant activity and enhance recovery.

10% of horses in training have broken away feet. Scientific studies have shown that Biotin, fed in conjunction with calcium promotes hoof wall and sole growth and strengthens weak shelly hooves.
In CAL-PLUS with BIOTIN, Vetsearch has combined the bone-building calcium, trace minerals and vitamin co-factors found in traditional CAL-PLUS, with the B-Complex vitamin BIOTIN, to assist horses with brittle, cracked, shelly or broken hooves.
Beneficial for:
- Brittle, cracked or shelly hooves.
- White crumbly hooves.
- Slow growing hooves.
- Maintaining bone strength and density.
Why use Cal-Plus with Biotin?
- Works on the inside and the outside of the hoof to improve hoof condition while maintaining strong bone, joint and muscle structures.
- A hoof and bone food in one supplement!
Analysis:
Each 60g dose contains:
Macrominerals

DIRECTIONS FOR USE
A daily intake of Cal-plus with Biotin will help ensure the development and maintenance of a strong and sound musculo-skeletal system, including the hoof. Horses on high grain/bran diets, or those grazing tropical pastures, should receive the recommended dose of Cal-plus with Biotin each day to help ensure an optimum calcium:phosphorus ration to maintain strong healthy bones, ligaments and tendons.
DOSAGE Note: It is preferable not to mix any calcium into wet bran mixtures. One level scoop contains 30g of Cal-plus with Biotin. The recemmended dose rates have been calculated to satisfy the calcium requirements based on common diets and activity. However, a veterinarian may prescribe amounts in excess of those recommended to horses with skeletal or hoof abnormalities. Horses with poor hooves should receive adequate levels of protein in their diets to provide essential amino acids, which in conjunction with a daily intake of Cal-plus with Biotin will assist in improving hoof structure.
CAL-PLUS with BIOTIN is a vanilla flavoured powder and is available in 1.2kg, 5kg and 12.5kg buckets.

Clinical signs of calcium deficiency, osteoporosis and nutritional secondary hyperparathyroidism include intermittent lameness, stiffness, shortened stride, tendon and ligament weakness, dental problems, weight loss and fractures. Lime and other inorganic forms of calcium supplements are also bound by oxalates – only chelated calcium is safe from oxalates.
The importance of calcium: Calcium is essential for life itself (regulating heartbeat, nerve function, muscle contraction and blood clotting) and blood levels are tightly regulated by parathyroid hormone (PTH). PTH is released when diets are low in calcium — causing calcium to move out of the bones and into the blood, and leading to demineralisation of bones and osteoporosis. Mild cases are difficult to detect, manifesting as vague shifting lameness, shortened stride, soreness at ligament and tendon insertions, joint pain and swelling. In more severe forms, ligament and tendon injuries increase and there may be a watery nasal discharge, poor coat, difficulty chewing, dental pain and swelling of the jaws, maxilla, mandible and nasal bones.
Management and prevention: The dietary calcium deficiency must be corrected. Chelation protects calcium from oxalate attack, is over 95% absorbed into the blood stream and, in the presence of oxalates, is more bioavailable than inorganic forms (lime and dicalcium phosphate).
Dr Jennifer Stewart's Bone Formula Forte and Calsorb Forte contain chelated calcium PLUS essential bone trace minerals that are deficient in Australian soils, pastures, hays and grains.
