ESS® Biotin Liquid

ESS "Biotin Liquid" is a preventive and supportive therapy for skin, hair and hoof problems. It causes increase of horn growth and prevention of crumbling and brittle hooves. It supports not only hoof growth and horn quality but also the skin. The combination of biotin and methionine as an amino acid promote hoof and hair synthesis. Zinc as a trace element supports growth and development of horn formation.

Feeding recommendation:
Large horses (600kg) 30-60 ml per day.

This supplemental feed should only be fed to horses up to 9.5% of the daily ration because of the increased zinc content compared to complete feed. Do take into account nutrient input from other feeds.

Biotin (vitamin H) improves hoof horn quality and protects against dermatitis and hair loss. Important at any skin change, since biotin causes through the bloodstream from the inside for rapid regeneration of the skin. Hair and horn are annexes of the skin.
Methionin in combination with biotin as a protein component, causes a considerable increase in horn and hair synthesis.
Zinc is an essential trace element that the body needs daily. As a mineral, zinc is a component of many metallic enzymes and involved in essential metabolic components in the body (including RNA and DNA synthesis). Zinc also has anti-inflammatory, appetiteenhancing and immune-boosting properties.
Vitamin E (tocopherol) prevents the formation of radicals and thus stabilizes the cell membranes.
Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is a powerful antioxidant. It also acts as a cell wall stabilizing and defense enhancing agent. It also has a cell stabilizing and defense enhancing effect. It supports the collagen formation (connective tissue) and wound healing.

Many horses suffer from hoof problems, such as brittle and soft hooves, cracks or poor horn growth. In addition to optimal hoof work and good care, nutrition also plays an important role in improving the quality of the horn. Also, skin and coat problems due to insufficient supply of vitamins and minerals can be improved by special supplementation.

All of our ESS products are FEI tested. Nevertheless we recommend to stop feeding them to your horse 48 hours before a competition for safety reasons.
