Western
- without oats
- with pure amino acids
- with chew-promoting alfalfa
- with extra vitamins & minerals
marstall Western is specially tailored to the needs of muscle-orientated breeds by adding essential amino acids that are digestible in the small intestine. Easily digestible carbohydrates from hydrothermally digested maize and barley flakes provide the necessary power. The antioxidants vitamin E and selenium help the organism to reduce free radicals and thus protect the muscle cells.
Our Western supports muscle building and performance.
Western sport places the highest demands on our horses. To ensure that Quarter Horses, Paints and other muscle-orientated breeds are optimally supplied during training, they need particularly high-quality protein. In general, only those amino acids that are digested and absorbed in the small intestine are available to the horse. Our Western contains a particularly large amount of these essential amino acids that can be digested in the small intestine, such as lysine, methionine and threonine. This not only ensures good muscle building, but also supports performance during work and the regeneration of heavily stressed muscle fibres.
Heavy muscle work also produces more free radicals, which need to be broken down using antioxidants. For this reason, Western is enriched with vitamin E and selenium. These antioxidants help the body to reduce free radicals and thus protect the muscle cells.
The muesli also provides the horse with all the important minerals, trace elements and vitamins. The hydrothermally digested maize and barley flakes and the high-quality vegetable oil containing omega-3 fatty acids provide concentrated energy for the necessary strength and endurance during training.
The added lucerne chaff promotes chewing activity and salivation, which is beneficial for digestion. Tasty grape pomace containing polyphenols and crunchy pea flakes round off the recipe of our Western.
