Chromium lowers blood lactate, while selenium and vitamins E and C provide potent antioxidant protection during intense exercise.

Digestive resilience

Live yeast cultures nurture hindgut microbes for superior fibre digestion and reduced colic risk.

Hoof and skeletal strength

Calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, biotin, and chelated trace minerals encourage durable hooves and robust bone and joint development.
