How our liposomal turmeric can help

What happens during shedding

-> During shedding season, your horse's metabolism has a lot to do: shedding old hairs, growing new ones, and regenerating skin. This puts a strain on the liver, immune system, and skin metabolism in particular.

1. Anti-inflammatory

The active ingredient curcumin has a strong anti-inflammatory effect.

This can help with:

• irritated skin
• itching
• skin inflammation during shedding

2. Supporting the liver

The liver plays a central role in the shedding of fur.

Turmeric can:

• support detoxification
• relieve the metabolic system

3. Antioxidant effect

-> It protects cells from oxidative stress, which is increased during shedding.

4. Strengthening the immune system

A stable immune system helps:

• To avoid skin problems
• To prevent infections (e.g., mud fever, fungal infections)

5. Improved absorption due to liposomal form

The advantage of liposomal turmeric:

• Significantly higher bioavailability
• Lower required amount
• Works more reliably in the body

Amino acids are extremely important for horses – they are the building blocks of proteins and therefore involved in almost all bodily functions. They can make a big difference, especially during phases of growth, training, or shedding.

1. Muscle building & performance

Essential amino acids (e.g., lysine, methionine, threonine) are crucial for:

• Muscle building
• Regeneration after training
• Muscle maintenance

-> Especially important for sport horses, older horses and horses in training.

2. Support during shedding

Promote amino acids:

• Haarwachstum
  
• Fellqualität
  
• Hautregeneration

3. Strengthening of hooves, skin and hair

Keratin – the main component of hooves and hair – consists of amino acids. Beneficial for:

• stronger hooves
• less brittle horn
• healthy skin

4. Immune system

Amino acids are necessary for:

• Antikörperbildung
  
• Zellreparatur
  
• Abwehrkräfte

5. Better regeneration

Amino acids help after exertion:

• To repair muscle damage
• To regain performance faster

6. Metabolism & Nerve Function

Some amino acids are precursors of:

• Hormonen
  
• Enzymen
  
• Neurotransmittern

-> they influence, for example:

• Stressverhalten
  
• Konzentration
  
• Energiehaushalt

7. Support in cases of deficiency

Not all pet food provides enough high-quality protein.

-> Additions can help with:

• lean horses
• poor muscle tone
• dull coat
• slow regeneration

Liposomes are tiny, spherical vesicles made of fats (lipids) – similar to the membrane of our body cells.

• Outer layer: double lipid layer (similar to cell membrane)
• Inner layer: active ingredient

How do liposomes work?

Liposomes serve as transport vehicles for active substances in the body.

1. Protection of the active ingredient

Sensitive substances (e.g., vitamins) are protected from:

• Magensäure
  
• Enzymen
  
• Oxidation

protected

2. Improved absorption (bioavailability)

Due to their similarity to cell membranes, liposomes can:

• Easier to fuse with cells
• Deliver active ingredients directly into the cell

3. Targeted delivery

Liposomes can be designed so that they:

• reach specific tissues
• release active ingredients more slowly or in a targeted manner

Stressful situations lead to the following in the body:

Stress on the immune system

higher need for antioxidants such as vitamin C

What role does vitamin C play?

Vitamin C acts in the body as:

• Antioxidant → protects cells from stress damage
• Immune supporter → stabilizes the immune system
• Regulator → helps with stress management

Why liposomal vitamin C?

Liposomal vitamin C potentially has advantages:

• Better absorption in the intestines
• Higher proportion actually reaches the body
• Possibly more efficient under increased stress

What are the specific benefits?

It can help in times of stress:

• to keep the immune system stable
• to shorten recovery times
• to somewhat mitigate the effects of stress

Particularly useful for:

• frequent transport
• intensive tournament season
• sensitive or older horses
