Ungulat® Hufkur
Complementary feed for horses
Holistic hoof nutrition
Hooves are the foundation of the horse and carry it throughout its life. Cracks, grooves, poor consistency and disturbed growth indicate a lack of specific nutrients, which must be compensated for with adapted feeding. Taking into account the latest findings of nutritional science, Ungulat with its effective nutrient composition offers a sustainable nutritional concept for the promotion of robust and resilient hooves - even in difficult cases.
- Rich in keratin-forming amino acids & special brewer’s yeast (contains nucleotides)
- Highly bioavailable, liposomally encapsulated trace elements
- Special herbal composition
BETTER HORN GROWTH
The hoof horn consists mainly of the scaffolding protein keratin, which in turn has a characteristic amino acid pattern. Deficiencies in the amino acids lysine, methionine, cysteine, proline and glycine are treated with Ungulat® via natural protein sources such as brewer's yeast, oilseeds, spirulina algae and herbs.
IMPROVING HOOF QUALITY
Mineral substances such as zinc, manganese, copper, iron, organic sulphur compounds, silicon and calcium are important strengthening structural components for the hoof horn. In Ungulat® , these nutrients are predominantly present in organic binding forms and liposomally encapsulated in optimised proportions to ensure bioavailability. In addition, cold pressed linseed oil provides unsaturated fatty acids. They are of great importance for the pliability and elasticity of the hoof horn. Functional cell building blocks (nucleotides) also ensure an optimised cell division rate and improved horn structure.
BIOTIN PRODUCTION
Ungulat® provides enzyme-rich cereal germs, garlic, brewer's yeast, linseed, millet, chamomile, vitamin A and the trace element cobalt to promote and protect digestion and thus improve the body's own biotin production
TRANSPORT OF SUBSTANCES INTO THE HOOF
Only a well-supplied with blood hoof corium ensures the transport of substances into the hoof complex. Ungulat contains garlic, unsaturated fatty acids, grape seed flour and other vascular protection factors. These nutrients help to maintain the fluidity of the blood or to protect the fine blood vessels up to the dermis.
UNGULATSTUDY
It has been scientifically proven that horn growth is improved, nutrient uptake is better and the transport of substances into the hoof is optimised, resulting in a lasting improvement in hoof quality.
