Cavalor VitaFlor 365
Indication for use
The intestinal tract ensures the absorption of all the necessary nutrients by the body. Its optimal functioning is therefore essential to health. By optimising the intestinal flora, the maximum yield from the feed is obtained and the body's immunity is strengthened. There are numerous factors, which can disturb the intestinal balance such as stress, specific medications, concentrated feed etc.
The colon is a very important component of the horse's digestion. The horse's natural diet is mainly roughage (grass, hay, straw). Because we put higher demands on our horses, there is a need for concentrated feed in the form of grain mixes (high starch content). The small intestine can often not completely process the digestion of starch, causing a part thereof to be pushed into the colon. There, the starch is converted to lactate. This may lead to acidification of the colon, inhibiting the proper functioning of the microorganisms, which results in a lower digestion of roughage and a reduced absorption of nutrients (especially minerals). This may lead to lowered disease resistance, reduced fitness and/or a colic susceptibility. Vitaflor 365 is a daily requirement to balance the absorption of nutrients, improve good development in young horses and the condition of the sports horse.
Composition of the product
CAVALOR VITAFLOR 365® contains live yeasts and inulin. Live yeast supports bacteria using lactic acid in the colon, preventing acidification (lowering of the PH), ensuring that the microorganisms present work under optimal conditions. This improves the digestion of crude fibre, the absorption of minerals and the production and absorption of B-vitamins. Thus, a higher yield from the feed is obtained and the incidence of colic decreases.
Inulin is a fructooligosaccharide (FOS), which belongs to the family of the prebiotic compounds. These are non-digestible feed ingredients that beneficially affect the animal by selectively stimulating the growth and/ or activity of one or a number of species already present in the colon. As an indirect result, prebiotic administration inhibits some pathogenic bacteria to develop. Since inulin is not stored in the body, a daily application is necessary to "feed" these microbes to ensure their beneficial effect and protection against pathogens.
