Pilot Equine boasts three core supplements to support horse health and performance: Freedom, Foundation, and Focus.
The Freedom joint supplement is one of the most popular supplements in the range. Freedom contains the three essential ingredients for joint health through work and age, glucosamine, calcium, and MSM. Supportive ingredients like Vitamin C to fight inflammation, and Hyaluronic Acid to maintain the smooth movement of joints, also support comfort during work and recovery.
With hoof health often overlooked when considering performance, the Foundation hoof supplement has also become essential in training toolkits. Building the ‘foundations’ of good horse performance, it contains the recommended doses of biotin, DL-methionine, calcium, and MSM, to help support the nutritional strength of hooves. Meanwhile, the addition of vitamin C and YEA-SACC 1026 support absorption to reap the full benefits of this supplement.
Finally, the Focus calming supplement supports calm and concentrated work. This supplement is based on one of the most scientifically backed horse calming agents, magnesium. A blend of calcium, fenugreek, and pro-and pre-biotics, also support the horse through adverse side-effects of stress, such as mineral loss and muscle pain, which can further affect performance and focus.
With horse health only being half the picture in equestrian performance, Pilot Equine has also created supplement blends to support riders too. The rider supplement range covers all the nutritional needs of the on-the-go rider, priming partnerships for optimal training and competition results.
