Details about “Farnam Weight Builder Kg 3,264”
Indications
Traditionally horses that needed a higher caloric intake to increase their resistance to effort and improve performance, were fed high doses of cereals (concentrated feed), with the risk of incurring serious problems such as colic or diarrhoea, and in serious metabolic problems with the risk of resulting laminitis. In addition, the excessive sugar intake resulting from cereal digestion can lead to overexcitement in certain more sensitive or particularly exuberant subjects, making them difficult to manage and less concentrated during work. Researchers have recently discovered the many benefits of increasing fatty acids in the horse’s diet, particularly polyunsaturated ones such as omega 3s in the Weight Builder. In particular, it was found that omega 3s are able to cause a major increase in muscle masses by promoting the increase in shape weight; promote and improve muscle activity by preserving glycogen stocks; they provide more calories than the equivalent amount of cereals, thus reducing the volume of feed administered; they are easily metabolized and therefore do not induce digestive or metabolic problems; they do not induce hyperexcitability and do not “warm up” the horse; improve the health of the skin and coat and the general condition of the animal. The Weight Builder, thanks to its high fat content (over 40) and in particular omega 3, is therefore a highly caloric supplement able to provide “fuel” to improve the performance of the horse. In addition, thanks to the balanced presence of calcium and phosphorus, the Weight Builder is able to maintain in balance the delicate relationship between these two microelements.
USE MODE

Additional Information & Education
Cavalor® Arti Matrix provides a matrix solution to problems related to bones, joint capsules, tendons, cartilage and synovial fluid that are particularly common in horses with sensitive musculoskeletal systems or horses required to perform at high levels. Cavalor® Arti Matrix provides nutrients that support the joints, as well as certain physiological processes that allow for a quick and effective recovery of the musculoskeletal system.
It’s in the mix – a complex mix of botanical ingredients.
We take pride in providing clinical research and data that proves the effectiveness of our nutritional Cavalor has undertaken a scientific study that shows that a lower dose of each herb often results in a supplement that has a similar or better potency than those that contain just one single herb. The studies prove that Cavalor’s joint product; Arti-Matrix contains the optimum mix of different herbs, (in a lower concentration than what would be required if you were to feed the separately), to give the best results. We call this a Synergetic effect
The study also revealed that the definition of an effective product can be defined as not only containing a dose of each ingredient, but also how these ingredients work together and what proportion of each is needed to improve absorption and effectiveness. When tested, Cavalor’s Arti Matrix, which contains both a multi-herbal and glucosamine-chondroitin mixture, was able to exert its positive effect for longer and stronger than the higher concentrated glucosamine-chondroitin formulation.
Over the last 7 years, Cavalor has done, in Vivo studies, In vitro studies and studies on horses, to find out what is the optimal combination of raw materials in their joint products to come to a maximal effect and to prove this efficacity first in rats and later in horses
Cavalor Arti Matrix is a specialised blend of herbs and essential oils including Ananus comosus, Curcuma longa, Boswellia serrata, Equisetum arvensis, Echinacea purpurea, Citrus aurantifolia and Tanacetum parthenium.
The ingredients in this mix have an additive and synergistic effect scientifically proven in our research program1,2,3.
The blend of herbs and essential oils ensures, among other things, that all ingredients can easily reach the joint, that recovery is promoted and stiffness is reduced. In this case too, we pay a lot of attention to the quality of the raw materials, because when it comes to herbs this really makes a difference in terms of guaranteed concentration and effect. The form of curcuma used, for example, contains 95% curcuminoids, the active ingredient.
Hydrolysed collagen type II: Type II collagen forms fibres. This fibre network of collagen supports the joints and strengthens the tissue.
Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM): organic form of sulphur. Sulphur is important for muscles, joints, cartilage, bones and blood; MSM is the best absorbable and bioavailable source of sulphur.
Glucosamine, chondroiting sulphate and hyaluronic acid: Glycosaminoglycans are important building blocks for ligaments, tendons, bones and synovia (synovial fluid). The chondroitin sulphate we use has a low molecular weight, which means that it is easily absorbed by the horse’s body. Just like with other raw materials, price and effectiveness are also linked to the quality in this case. Cavalor® selects raw materials with the highest active ingredient content. For example, chondroitin sulphate contains 90% active ingredient.
L-Glutamine: This is a building block for glutathione, an antioxidant. Glutathione is important for the recovery process in case of an injury.
Whey protein isolate (WPI): a glutathione precursor. Glutathione is a very powerful antioxidant.
Pure glutathione cannot be absorbed orally. Cavalor® uses a nutrient complex called WPI that stimulates the production of glutathione in the body. Glutathione protects the cells from destruction caused by an increase in free radical attacks. Glutathione together with other antioxidants such as vitamins C, E, Bio flavonoids and selenium neutralise these free radicals.
Vitamin C + E + beta-carotene + Bio flavonoids (grape seed extract): have an important antioxidant function and are important for the absorption of the active ingredients and increase immunity.
B vitamins: folic acid, vitamin B6 and vitamin B12: Important in supporting metabolic processes in the body.
Combination of inorganic and organic (Intellibond and chelated) minerals copper, zinc and manganese: Organic minerals have a better bioavailability but inorganic minerals are more stable.
Lime algae: carbonated algae that contain various forms of calcium. These types of calcium have a beneficial effect on bone strength.

Cavalor Gastro Aid 1,8 Kg
More horses than one might expect suffer from gastric irritation. Cavalor Gastro Aid works on several levels in order to keep the stomach pH neutral and thus protect the stomach wall against irritation.
Cavalor Gastro Aid 1,8 Kg – Professional Line
The nutritional tool to use in gastric ulcer management and prevention!
Indication for use
Every equine practitioner appreciates the delicate nature of the equine gut. Problems related to the small intestine and large intestine are well understood and routinely treated. What may be surprising is how often the stomach is affected, specifically; the incidence of gastric ulcers is extremely high, particularly in performances horses.
Different studies (post mortem and gastro endoscopes studies) show that 75-89% of horses in active training have gastric Ulcers. The major cause of Gastric Ulcers is prolonged exposure of the squamous mucus to gastric acid. The only protection that the horse stomach has against gastric acid and pepsin comes from saliva production.
Meals of grain or extended periods of fasting lead to excess gastric acid output without adequate saliva production. Intense exercise increases the production of gastric acid even more in a way that the squamous mucosa of the stomach gets thoroughly bathed in acid. Horses with gastric ulcers may show symptoms like a drop in performance; sour attitude; poor hair coat; grinding teeth; picky eater; Weight loss etc.
Treatment of ulcers involves either inhibiting gastric acid secretion, neutralizing the acid produced or protects the squamous mucus from exposure to acid. CAVALOR Gastro Aid provides the nutritional tools to neutralize acid production and stimulate regeneration. It also protects the stomach mucus on different levels using different nutritional approaches (as most CAVALOR products do).
Contains mastica, this raw material supports the digestion. It’s a safe and effective alternative to protect the stomach wall without harming the populations of friendly bacteria in the intestines. Mastica improves the effect of Cavalor Gastro Aid and at the same time it makes it even more flavourful.
Composition of the product
Cavalor Gastro Aid contains nucleotides, bioflavonoids, herbs and “vitamin U”.
Dosage
30 gr/ day during minimal 4 – 6 weeks
Frequently Asked Question
How are gastric ulcers diagnosed?
You have to be careful of the signals recorded by the horse, such as frequent yawns, drop in performance, harshness in attitudes, hair in bad conditions, frequently gritted teeth, slow feeding with frequent pauses and weight loss. Take these attitudes into consideration. Clinical exams and gastroscopy are the best way to diagnose gastric ulcers.
