Equine America Copper Plus 1000 g

Description

Copper-Plus is a dietary supplement specially formulated to provide copper and cobalt which may be lacking or in insufficient quantities in the horse’s diet. A lack of copper can show as anaemia, poor growth, hair de-pigmentation, weight loss and some bone disorders. Equine America Copper-Plus Powder supplies a high quality dietary copper along with supporting vitamins and minerals for absorption and ultilization.

Copper, which is present in all body cells, aids in the absorption and utilisation of iron, for blood cell production. Copper is also necessary for several enzymes involved in vital processes, as well as regulating the normal hair pigmentation. Horses are very tolerant of copper but over supplementation can interfere with the absorption of zinc and iron.
