WHY USE EQUINECTAR?
Digestive enzyme supplementation increases a horse's ability to safely and effectively digest starch.
- The primary source of energy for a racehorse is starch.
- The digestive system of the racehorse is restricted by the limited capability of the small intestine.
- As the main site for carbohydrate digestion, and so provision of fuel for muscles and other key organs, the ability to maximise efficiency of the small intestine is a key area of interest for performance.
- Carbohydrate digestion in the small intestine is enzyme dependent.
- The number of enzymes present is individual and fixed; the horse has limited ability to increase or decrease enzyme levels subject to the type of feed given.
EquiNectar is a source of natural digestive enzymes. It helps a horse digest starch more effectively.
