Equine America Magnitude Powder 1kg
Magnesium is an essential mineral, playing important roles in many areas of metabolism. One of its major roles is as a co-factor in the enzymes involved in nerve and neuro-muscular transmission – helping to regulate nerve to nerve and nerve to muscle transmission and communication.
A lack of magnesium can result in nerve and neuro-muscular excitability, resulting in a tense, nervous horse.
Stressful situations such as strenuous activity and competition, travelling, prolonged stabling and lack of grazing, or new environments may further increase magnesium requirements as stress levels rise.
Magnitude provides supplemental magnesium, together with controlled amounts of calcium (another key mineral in nerve and muscle metabolism), to help promote healthy nerve function and reduce tension, enabling the horse to focus and concentrate.
What are the benefits of Magnitude Powder?
Magnitude Powder provides magnesium from Magnesium Oxide, which is produced from calcined magnesite, extracted from natural deposits in the earth.
The Magnesium Oxide used in Magnitude typically contains 50% elemental magnesium.
Natural source of magnesium to supplement low or marginal levels in forage.
A very small daily serving of 5g provides 2.44g elemental magnesium, easily mixed in feed for fussy feeders.
Safe use with most typical fortified performance and leisure feeds and forage.
A complementary mineral feed for horses, designed to support and maintain healthy magnesium levels, as part of a balanced diet.
Equine America is BETA NOPS and UFAS accredited, making Magnitude suitable for horses competing under FEI regulations by reducing the risk of our products containing prohibited substances.
Directions for feeding: For 500 kg horse; 5g per day. Maximum 5g per day (unless under specialist advice from a vet or nutritionist). 5g (approx.) measure enclosed
