When Should I feed Immune Aid to My Horse?

Immune Aid should be fed to all equines that exhibit signs of a challenged immune system.

Explained - The 11 Active Nutraceuticals in Immune Aid for Horses
Nutraceuticals are products derived from food sources with extra health benefits in addition to their basic nutritional value.
Antioxidants (x3)
Vitamin C, vitamin E and selenium. Three important antioxidants that work together in the metabolism to ‘mop up’ free radicals.
Curcumin
Curcumin is the active ingredient of the spice, turmeric. It is a natural and powerful antioxidant and supports the normal anti-inflammatory action of the body in conjunction with vitamins: C and E and selenium.
Glutamic Acid
Glutamic Acid is a natural flavour enhancer and an important nutritional support for gut health during times of stress.
Hemp Oil Derived Omega 3 Fatty Acids
Hemp Oil is a rich source of Omega 3 fatty acids found in the plant world. This unique combination enables the animal to produce other essential Omega 3 fats called EPA & DHA, both of which are normally only found in fish oils and are crucial for maintaining the natural anti-inflammatory action of the body.
Microscopic Toxin Binder
A blend of microscopic absorbent compounds that aid the natural expulsion of antagonists found in feed and the environment.
MSM (Methylsulfonylmethane)
MSM is a source of sulphur, which helps to form cross links with other molecules that maintain the strength and integrity of connective tissues. It is also essential for the manufacture of collagen.
Oligosaccharides
Oligosaccharides from yeast cell wall and concentrated oat bran sources that help support the natural expulsion of antagonists in the digestive tract and maintain a high level of natural immunity.
Piperine Black Pepper Extract
Piperine Black Pepper Extract is a natural nutritional addition that helps to maintain the absorption of poorly retained active nutraceuticals, i.e. curcumin.
Vitamin D3 & High Quality Protein
Used as part of the digestion process, vitamin D binding protein is transferred into the immune system and contributes to the natural response of the body to the presence of antagonists.
Explained - The 4 Active Nutraceuticals in the Oatinol Delivery System
Nutraceuticals are products derived from food sources with extra health benefits in addition to their basic nutritional value.
Oatinol is a natural high quality oil based concept developed by and unique to GWF Nutrition. When incorporated into the feed it supplies the following four active nutraceuticals to:
- Maintain gut cell integrity.
- Maintain the lining of the gut.
- Support the immune system.
- Aid the absorption of active ingredients, vitamins and trace elements.
Galactolipid Natural Emulsifiers
Galactolipids are a combination of sugar and fat molecules that create the perfect medium for the absorption of active ingredients across the gut wall.
Natural Tocotrienol Antioxidants
Tocotrienol antioxidants are a natural form of vitamin E. They are 40-60 times more readily available than other forms of vitamin E and help to maintain the integrity of the cells forming the lining of the gut to aid absorption.
Oat Derived Beta Glucans
Beta Glucans have prebiotic properties that support beneficial bacteria in the gut to promote healthy absorption.
Phospholipids
Phospholipids have emulsifying properties and have been shown to actively influence nutrient digestibility and absorption.
Daily Feeding Recommendation
- Simply mix with your horse or pony's normal feed.
- 1 measure = 100gm (measure included).
