Pure vitamin C supplement for horses – support for immune system, joints, and recovery
Vitamin C for horses consists of 100 percent ascorbic acid and is used as a complementary feed when there is an increased need. Vitamin C acts as a powerful antioxidant and is necessary for the body's own production of collagen, a protein that is crucial for the horse's joints, tendons, ligaments, and skin.
A deficiency of vitamin C can weaken the horse's immune system, slow down wound healing, and inhibit the formation of collagen. In the long run, this can affect the quality of joint cartilage and increase the risk of problems related to joint health and mobility.
Older horses often have a reduced natural production of vitamin C, while horses in intense training or competition use more vitamin C than the body can produce. During such periods, an extra supplement can be a valuable support to maintain good health and recovery.
