When Should I feed Immune Aid to My Horse?

Explained - The 13 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.
Beta Carotene (Vitamin A precursor)
A safe and effective way to provide the building blocks for vitamin A, which is vital for vision, appetite and growth.
Curcumin
An 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
A natural flavour enhancer and an important nutritional support for natural gut health during times of stress.
Omega 3 Fatty Acids
Crucial for maintaining the natural anti-inflammatory action of the body.
Toxin Binders
A blend of microscopic absorbent compounds that aid the natural expulsion of antagonists found in feed and the environment.
MSM (Methylsulfonylmethane)
Essential for the manufacture of collagen and a source of sulphur, which helps to form cross links with other molecules that maintain the strength and integrity of connective tissues.
Oligosaccharides (Fructo, Galacto & Mannan) (Prebiotic)
Support the immune system by maintaining naturally high levels of macrophage activity to block harmful organisms, being absorbed into the bloodstream.
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.
Selenium (inc. Protected)
An important antioxidant that works synergistically with vitamin E.
Vitamin C
Essential for the production of collagen in the body that forms the matrix of connective tissues in mammals.
Vitamin D3
Crucial for bone development. Also important for the immune system, fertility and the release of insulin.
Vitamin E
A biological antioxidant and essential for healthy reproductive, muscular, circulatory, nervous and immune systems. Has anti-ageing properties.
Yeast Cultures
Help to stabilise the pH, scavenge oxygen and encourage the growth of beneficial bacteria in the digestive tract.
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.
