COPRA Is found within our HealthSolution supplement; HEALTH
has relatively high protein content, but because it has a low level of lysine it is not the same quality found in more common protein sources. Due to the low level of lignon the digestibility of copra is high. Copra contains less than 12% starch therefore it does not cause starch-related disorders. The high protein, fiber, and fat content make this an ideal supplement component of an equine diet. It gives your horse a readily digestible energy, without the hotness that generally comes with high grain diets. Coconut oil provides medium chain triglycerides (MCT), which are more rapidly absorbed and more quickly metabolized than long chain triglycerides. Rather than being stored for fat, the body converts the MCTs into fuel for muscles.
All of these make copra particularly beneficial to horses who need “long burn energy” such as performance horses, because it is a medium chain triglyceride its NSC content makes it suitable for horses with metabolic issues who have trouble handling starch and sugar. Used with discretion, copra can add calories without having an effect on the glycemic response of the horse.
Finally, most horses seem to love the taste of coconut so it’s a great way to hide less palatable supplements and medications as well as add shine to thier coat.

TURMERIC is found within our HealthSolution supplements; TWILIGHT & GOLD
It has been used historically in Indian and Chinese medicine as an anti-inflammatory agent. Turmeric is a popular additive to human and animal feed, growing in popularity in equine supplements targeting joint and skin health. The bright coloured spice comes from a root plant known as curcuma longa. The compound responsible for the health benefits associated with feeding turmeric is from Curcumin. It is a natural occurring polyphenolic compound found within turmeric spice

Turmeric is probably best known for its use as an anti-inflammatory supplement in horses, making it popular for use with horses and ponies suffering from arthritis and other conditions relating to lameness. It reduces inflammation and pain as the curcumin reduces the inflammatory pathways in the body through its ability to inhibit the cyclooxygenase enzyme 2 (COX-2), whilst maintaining COX-1 enzymatic function.
