EO‑3™
EO-3 is a unique source of omega-3 fatty acids, DHA and EPA, derived from marine sources that can help maintain an optimal omega-3: omega-6 fatty acid ratio in equine diets.
Increases omega-3 : 6 ratio for a better nutritional balance
Omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids must be balanced within the body for both to be effective. The optimal ratio is thought to be 2 to 4:1. These essential fatty acids cannot be made by the horse and have to be supplied by their diet.
Superior Source of Omega-3 Compared to plant sources
Plant-derived omega-3’s are converted in the body from their basic form to more complex and highly effective forms. Marine-derived omega-3 sources supply these more complex forms directly into the body without requiring inefficient conversion processes.
Inflammatory Response
The omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA are precursors of inflammatory compounds that have a milder inflammatory response than those from omega-6 fatty acids, which are considered 'pro-inflammatory' by comparison.
Coat and skin conditioner
Research has shown positive effects on coat condition, allergic reactivity and skin sensitivity for horses fed on EO-3 oil.
Breeding Support
Supplementing with omega-3 fatty acids has been shown to support sperm motility and viability in stallions, as well as fertility and colostrum quality in broodmares.
Supporting Joint Health
The benefits of DHA- and EPA-mediated inflammatory response include a marked reduction in joint inflammation.
Suitable for
Performance horses on high-cereal, low-pasture diets. Broodmares to support fertility and colostrum quality, which directly aids foal immune function. Stallions to assist sperm motility and viability. Supporting joint health. Positive effects on coat condition, allergic reactivity and skin sensitivity.
Features
A potent and unique marine-derived source of omega-3 fatty acids, DHA and EPA. EO-3™ is stabilised and flavoured, resulting in increased palatability when compared to other marine-derived oils. It strengthens immune function, improves glucose tolerance.
EO-3 supplies omega-3 fatty acids compounds with positive effects on reproduction, bone development and numerous inflammatory conditions in horses. A marine-derived source of long chain omega-3 fatty acids to maintain an optimal omega 3 : omega 6 ratio in the diet, and a direct source of DHA and EPA, to help modulate body-wide inflammation.
Omega-3 Fatty Acids 35%. Omega 6 Fatty Acids 3%. EPA and DHA 25%. Omega 3 : Omega 6 Ratio 12:1
