WHAT IS CAL-PLUS® WITH BIOTIN?

CAL-PLUS WITH BIOTIN is a calcium, biotin and vitamin supplement developed to support healthy, strong bones and hooves in horses. Specifically, it:

  • Promotes the growth and formation of the hoof as well as preserving the integrity of the hoof wall
  • Also acts as a preventative and remedy for brittle, cracked and broken hooves

CAL-PLUS IS RECOMMENDED FOR

  • Horses that require supplementation as they are on grain-based diets or fed on sub-tropical grasses and hays.
  • Pregnant mares, foals and young horses.
  • Horses with hoof problems, such as brittleness, cracks, and separation of the white-line.
  • Horses of all kinds, including racing, working, pleasure and stud horses to prevent and treat deficiencies of biotin, calcium, vitamin A and D.

WHY CHOOSE CAL-PLUS WITH BIOTIN?

  • Three forms of calcium and important co-factors For maximum calcium absorption and uptake.
  • Optimal calcium:phosphorus ratios
  • Combination of calcium and biotin improves hoof quality By correcting loss of structure on the outside layers of the hoof wall as well as formation of the cells in the inner two layers of the hoof wall.
  • Aids in the prevention of bone disorders, shin soreness and joint injuries related to training or inadequate calcium intake or availability.
  • Sub-tropical grasses such as pangola, kikuyu, buffalo, green panic, para or setania contain high oxalate levels which bind calcium, making it unavailable for horses. CAL-PLUS WITH BIOTIN can provide much needed calcium for any horses feeding on sub-tropical grasses.
