What is Gamma Oryzanol?
Gamma Oryzanol is a naturally occurring
plant sterol and ferulic acid ester (fat-like substance with
steroid-like effects). The principle source of gamma
oryzanol is in rice bran oil, but it can also be found in
corn and barley oils. Rice bran, discovered by the Japanese,
is the outer husk of the rice kernel which is removed during
the processing of white rice.
What are the effects of Gamma Oryzanol?
The theory behind Gamma oryzanol
supplementation, the active ingredient in Equi-BuildER, is
the effect it has on the body’s hormonal system,
specifically the ability to increase testosterone levels, or
muscle building hormones.
Gamma oryzanol is also thought to
stimulate the hypothalamus to secrete Growth Hormone
Releasing Hormone, which in turn stimulates the release of
Human Growth Hormone. This also aids with muscle building.
The properties of gamma oryzanol actually mimic that of an
anabolic hormone!
Can my horse experience the same benefits
by eating a diet high in rice bran?*
Actually, no. Gamma oryzanol is not
water-soluble plant sterol. Therefore, the body will absorb
only a small amount of the active ingredient if fed in a
powdered form. However, fed in a soluble base of corn oil,
the body can experience maximum absorption. However, to get
enough gamma oryzanol to reach recommended therapeutic
dosages, you will need to take supplements.
Some Additional Claims of Gamma Oryzanol
- Has a positive effect on the release of
endorphins, which are the “feel good” or pain
relieving chemicals released into the body during
exercise. These endorphins also decrease the feeling of
fatigue, which can allow the horse to train longer
without the feeling of exhaustion.
- Reduces inflammation or irrigation of
the inner lining of the stomach.
- Decreases lactic acid
- Improves mental functioning, reducing
stress and nerves
- Aids in weight gain
- Promotes growth of lean muscle tissue
- Helps with overall condition and coat
appearance
- Has a potential effect on digestion and
stomach ulceration and gastritis
