Magnesium Oxide 90%

90% Magnesium oxide – This is a high quality budget alternative to our ultra low iron human pharmaceutical grade magnesium oxide at 99.8% purity.

• Magnesium oxide is the primary ingredient in many of the quality equine calming products on the market.
• Magnesium is needed for more than 325 enzymes within the horse’s body.
• Involved in protein synthesis, so needed for general growth and repair of tissue, e.g. Hooves.
• Required for the maintenance of normal blood circulation within the body, limbs and feet of the horse.
• Useful when magnesium needs boosting in the diet.
• Magnesium is critical for balanced secretion of insulin and glucose uptake.
• It is involved in supporting correct blood sugar levels after carbohydrate intake and adequate levels can support insulin function ( including cresty neck and/or fat deposits).
• Magnesium is essential for proper calcium absorption and is an important mineral in the bone matrix.
• It can also assist in the absorption and metabolism of Vitamins B, C and E.
• Magnesium can support nervousness stressed horses.
• Periods of stress lead to an increased need for magnesium.
• Magnesium is often lacking in equine diets due to processed, preserved, high concentrated feeds.
• The availability of magnesium is low in fast growing, lush grass after periods of rainfall; in acid soils i.e. ‘horse sick pastures’ or artificially fertilised pastures (acid conditions destroy soil microorganisms which are used to make the minerals usable by plants).
