Just a few bestselling products manufactured by Science Supplements® that are available from Discount Equestrian include:
FlexAbility Plus Horse Joint Supplement – “A high specification supplement that provides declared levels of key nutrients involved in cartilage synthesis and support using a unique combination and optimal levels of scientifically proven ingredients, including glucosamine, low molecular weight chondroitin, MSM, omega 3 fatty acids DHA & EPA, Hyaluronic Acid (HA) and Vitamin C. Low dust, highly palatable and manufactured under the strictest conditions in our approved and certified UFAS and BETA NOPS approved manufacturing facility. FlexAbility+ PLUS is one of the highest specification joint supplements available in the UK and the only joint supplement with two clinical and scientific studies demonstrating the positive effects of joint supplementation. FlexAbility is the only joint supplement in the UK with a published, peer reviewed paper in The Journal of Equine Veterinary Science.”
4Feet Plus Horse Hoof Supplement – “Poor hoof condition is common in all types of horses and ponies, and can lead to practical problems such as splitting of the hoof and losing shoes, as well as foot pain and lameness. The number one ingredient in any hoof supplement must be Biotin as by far the most scientific evidence for an effect on hoof growth and quality exists for this nutrient. 4Feet Plus contains a very high level of bioavailable D-Biotin (75mg/day for a 500kg horse). As Biotin is absorbed from the hindgut, 4Feet Plus also contains a high dose of a protected live yeast to help ensure a healthy hindgut environment. Changes in hoof growth and or quality can take 3-6 months to be apparent. After 3-6 months, the new hoof growth below the coronet band should be smooth and the growth lines should be vertical and horizontal.”
GastroKind Horse Gastric Support Supplement – “Winner of the International Innovation Awards 2017, GastroKind is a natural, nutritional formula developed by leading veterinary scientists, nutritionists and vets. The unique formula promotes a healthy gastric environment, soothes the stomach walls, helps control acidity and supports the natural anti-inflammatory processes in the gut. Gastrokind can be fed to all horses during or following veterinary treatment to help encourage a healthy stomach environment and is a natural alternative to maintain a healthy gut.”
WellHorse Leisure Horse Feed Balancer – “WellHorse Leisure is supported by 50 years of scientific research into what individual horses and ponies require and is formulated to meet the demands of the leisure horse. It contains every important nutrient your horse requires and meets the NRC (National Research Council) and BASF (Animal Nutrition) recommendations for vitamins and microminerals. In addition to vitamins and minerals, WellHorse Leisure also includes a source of highly bioavailable D-Biotin (also known as Vitamin H or Vitamin B7) to support hoof growth, skin and coat condition, as well as containing an innovative protected live yeast and a mycotoxin binder to support a healthy GI tract. The entire WellHorse range are concentrated balancers that provide almost zero starch and zero sugar, therefore, they will not make your horse ‘fizzy’ or provide extra energy to the diet, making them suitable for horses on a restricted diet.”
