The Importance of Vitamin C
Although a horse can make their own Vitamin C, they produce lower amounts in times of stress or sickness. So supplementation of Vitamin C can be beneficial in times of stress or sickness due to their lower Vitamin C production.
Vitamin C Benefits for Horses
Suitable for:
- Competition horses e.g endurance horses, eventers, and racehorses
- Post-operative and post-trauma horses
- Horses suffering from wounds, infections or diseases
- Inflammatory conditions
- Horses with heaves or allergies
- Aged horses with chronic infections or decreased immunity
Vitamin C is essential for neutralising dangerous free radicals. Vitamin C is required for collagen production, hormone synthesis, vitamin D3 conversion to calcitriol, bone calcification, and antihistamine regulation, among other things.
Poor hair coat, a weakened immune system, haemorrhage, delayed wound healing, deteriorated or enlarged adrenal glands, scoliosis, and lordosis are all symptoms of Vitamin C insufficiency.
