Hippomun® forte
Complementary feed for horses
Supporting the defences
The body's own defence depends on the responsiveness and multiplication speed of the immune cells. Hippomun® forte provides proven nutrients and functional substances such as β-glucans, nucleotides, lysine and grape seed flour for a strong immune system. Horses can thus become more resistant, more efficient and more nervously resilient.
- Strengthens the body's own defences with nutrients for the immune cells
- In times of higher stress such as change of coat, change of stable or weaning
- In convalescence, during competitions and breeding season
SUPPORTING THE IMMUNE SYSTEM
Horses with a less resilient immune system are susceptible to bacteria, viruses, fungi or parasites. Vaccinations and stressful situations also increase the strain on the immune system. The immune system faces particular challenges during weaning in foals, in stables with high turnover, during the competition and breeding season and during transport. Specific micronutrients can activate and stimulate immune cells in a targeted way, thus supporting the defences.
IMMUNE ACTIVATING COMPOSITION
Herbal components such as turmeric and ginger strengthen the immune system, are anti-inflammatory and digestive. Siberian ginseng brings antiviral, immunomodulating and antioxidant properties. Nucleotides, as building materials of DNA, promote cell division of immune and intestinal epithelial cells and thus increase the efficiency of the immune system. β-glucans from yeast cell extracts and fermented carrots stimulate macrophages (scavenger cells) and increase their alertness and sensitivity to pathogens. The essential trace element zinc serves the organism as a cofactor in certain metabolic processes and stimulates the multiplication and reactivity of immune cells. High-quality proteins from oilseeds, algae and brewer's yeast provide the organism with building blocks for the supply of immune cells. The essential amino acid lysine, as a counterpart to arginine, inhibits the multiplication of certain viruses. In addition, omega-3 fatty acids from linseed oil and linseed protect macrophages and lymphocytes.
