Calphormin: For Optimum
Skeletal Development
and Conformation

CALPHORMIN provides for the elevated requirements of the essential nutrients needed for optimum skeletal development in young growing horses.

The principal utilization of CALCIUM AND PHOSPHOROUS in the body is the development of bones and teeth. Horses are more likely to suffer from a lack of Calcium and Phosphorous, than from a lack of any other mineral.

CALPHORMIN is unique in that it contains a balanced combination of macro-minerals, trace minerals, amino acids and the added benefit of Sodium Zeolite a bioavailable silicon-containing compound..

The foundations for a horses future success can be laid down before it is even born. Ensuring the broodmare has the correct balance of macro-minerals, trace minerals, and amino acids to pass on to her new born, CALPHORMIN will give the young horse the best start it can get. Continuing to feed the young, rapidly growing horse CALPHORMIN will optimise it’s growth and bone development, in a correct and balanced way

SODIUM ZEOLITE is a bioavailable Silicon-containing compound. Silicon enhances bone calcification and is present in large quantities in connective tissue. Silicon is associated with collagen formation, the fibrous protein matrix which provides support for body structures such as cartilage and bones.

LYSINE is the first limiting amino acid in the diet of growing foals. Inadequate protein or Lysine intake results in decreased growth and development of young animals.

ZINC, COPPER and MANGANESE, are essential trace minerals, deficiencies of which are associated with:
• Increased incidence of Epiphysitis
• Increased incidence of Developmental Orthopedic Diseases (DOD).
• Impairment of carbohydrate metabolism and synthesis of Chondroitin Sulphate.

MSM is a source of bioavailable sulphur. Sulphur is needed for the synthesis of connective tissue.
