Natural Care Products: Equitop Myoplast®
Active Ingredient

feed supplement containing 18 amino acids

Indication
  • As a supplement when increased muscle structure, especially in sport- and show horses or whenever a horse has weak muscles, is desirable
  • For young horses during training
  • For seasonal training (e.g. racehorses and event horses)
  • For horses with reduced rideability and performance due to insufficient muscle structure
  • For horses with painful muscle tensions e.g. in the back
  • For breeding stock
  • For old horses to cover the increased need for valuable proteins during convalescence or training breaks to prevent loss of muscle structure

Characteristics

Equitop Myoplast® is a feed supplement, designed to support the muscle structure of your horse. The vegetable raw material of the product is derived from algae and provides the muscles of your horse with 18 amino acids in a unique composition. Thus, in a physiological way Equitop Myoplast® supports the formation and the functioning of the muscles during intensified training periods.

Equitop Myoplast® is available as pearl granules to ensure that your horse willingly eats the product and thereby gets the benefit from its components. The specified processing of the granules ensures a consistent quality of the ingredients.

Equitop Myoplast® does not contain any doping relevant substances.
