Biotin + Plus Salt Lick for Horses
- Salt lick made from pure Mediterranean sea salt (NaCl)
- Supplemented with trace elements, vitamin E, and biotin
- Promotes healthier hooves and a shinier coat
- Supplementary feed for horses
Salt lick with biotin:
Biotin has a positive effect on the structure and resilience of hooves and hair. It promotes the formation of keratinocytes: the cells that make up hooves and hair. More keratinocytes ensure better quality of hoof horn and coat.
Salt lick with vitamin E:
Vitamin E primarily plays a role in regulating cell metabolism. It also acts as an antioxidant, protecting cells. This contributes to better defense and an improvement in coat quality.
Salt and trace elements in the salt lick:
Salt and trace elements are essential components of daily nutrition, contributing to good health and better performance. Salt is the most important mineral that horses, cattle, sheep, and goats need. The natural salt content of grass and hay is insufficient to fully meet the animals' needs. Animals have a natural ability to sense their salt needs, and with the Biotin plus salt licks, they can meet their individual needs.
Why magnesium oxide in the salt lick instead of magnesium citrate or chelate:
When feeding magnesium to your horse, it is important that the magnesium dissolves well for the horse to absorb it. If a deficiency needs to be replenished, and therefore large amounts of magnesium need to be fed, a well stomach-soluble magnesium form like citrate or chelate is needed. However, in a salt lick, magnesium oxide comes into the stomach in small amounts, a maintenance dosage. The small amounts of magnesium oxide from a salt lick dissolve in the acidic environment of the stomach because it is such a small amount, making the magnesium absorbable for the horse. Additionally, magnesium oxide can better withstand the salty environment of the salt lick.
