Vitamin C is an anti-oxidant which serves to protect the body and is used when the animal is unwell or under stress (travelling/training) to boost natural recovery.
Benefits of Vitamin C for horses:
- Supports Immune Health: crucial for the proper functioning of the immune system
- Antioxidant Protection: as a potent antioxidant, neutralizing radicals in the body and helping protect cells from oxidative damage. This is particularly beneficial for horses exposed to environmental stressors such as extreme temperatures, heavy training, or travel.
- Collagen Production and Joint Health: it is essential for collagen production, which is vital for the health of connective tissues like tendons, ligaments, and joints. This makes it useful for maintaining joint health, particularly in older horses or those with joint issues.
- Improved Wound Healing: where it supports the healing of wounds, cuts, and injuries by promoting the production of collagen and other essential healing factors. Horses recovering from surgery or injury may benefit from extra supplementation.
- Stress Support: horses undergoing physical stress, such as during training, competition, or transport, may have higher requirements. Supplementation may also help replenish levels that are depleted during periods of stress.
Signs of Vitamin C Deficiency in Horses:
- Weakened immune response: Increased susceptibility to infections and illnesses.
- Poor coat condition: dull, rough, or patchy coat, which may be a sign of poor collagen synthesis.
- Wound healing problems: slower recovery from cuts, scrapes, or injuries.
- Joint issues: stiffness, discomfort, or decreased mobility in older horses or those with joint problems.
- Fatigue or lethargy: lower energy levels may result from insufficient amounts
