Today we are happy to tell you about the introduction of our new product: the VitaFlor!
Protect your horse’s health by supporting digestion and strengthening the immune system.
Strong immunity is important for your horse.
The immune system is an invisible protection against harmful external influences, such as viruses, bacteria, fungi or parasites.
The immune system is invisible army of different white blood cells, each with its own function, constantly ready to defend the body.
The gut is the body’s largest immune organ.
80% of all immunological cells that detect harmful external pathogens are located in the intestines.
There are also billions of bacteria active in the intestines.
These bacteria are called the intestinal flora.
Intestinal flora plays a crucial role in the regulation of the immune system.
For a properly functioning immune system, a healthy intestinal flora is indispensable.
A horse with a good resistance is less prone to all kinds of infections and will also recover faster if he does get sick.
All of Florian’s roughage mixes support good intestinal flora by offering a balanced variety of fiber.
In addition, we use a variety of functional ingredients in our roughage mixes, muesli ‘s and primal chunks that protect the horse’s sensitive digestive system.
For example, with substances that buffer gastric acid, substances that lay a protective layer on the mucosa of the stomach and intestines and substances that regulate glucose absorption in the small intestine.
The most innovative protection for mycotoxins, prebiotics such as unique seaweed blends and yeasts specially selected for the horse are standard in the roughage mixes, muesli ‘s and primal chunks.
As an extra boost, we have added a new product to our finest enrichement line in addition to our digest comfort and golden herbs.
This is to optimize intestinal health and strengthen the immune system.
VitaFlor contains fenugreek, a unique seaweed blend, oyster shells and potato protein.
Each of these are ingredients that contribute to strengthening the immune system.
Their function as building blocks for immune cells, antioxidant activity, antimicrobial and antiviral activity, anti-inflammatory effect and natural anabolics (saponins).
VitaFlor can thus optimally support the health and condition of your horse.
