Selenium: Selenium is an essential component of various enzymes and proteins, called selenoproteins, that help to carry information for signalling development and functioning, protect against cell damage, infections and helps improve birth rates. With widespread-deficient soils in Australia this ingredient is more important than ever in your horses’ diet which is why it is one of Selvita's active ingredients!
Please note: Excessive tissue levels of selenium are not advisable. As per APVMA suggestion the Selenium levels within Selvita are below what's expected to be concerning levels when taken as advised. See application rates and frequency.
Care should be taken to avoid over-supplementation and/or concurrent use of other products containing selenium. If blood selenium levels are high this product should not be used. Users can determine an animal’s selenium status by consulting their veterinarian.
Tryptophan: Tryptophan is an essential amino acid that can only be obtained through diet. It is used in the biosynthesis of proteins and helps make melatonin and serotonin. Stressed horses can become tryptophan deficient which can lead to mood changes, lack of appetite and if left untreated can sometimes lead to a weakened health system. Selvita's specialised formula has been designed to give your horse an extra helping hand to help combat this problem within safe levels.
Omega 3 & 6: Not only is Selvita jam packed with essential nutrients, amino acids and elements it contains Omega 3 & 6.
Omega 3 & 6 are thought to improve skin, coats, and hooves, health system, recovery, bone development, joint health and much more. As Selvita is derived from whole fish, the omega 3 & 6 oil content is more readily absorbed than oils derived from plant-based materials and therefore your horse receives more of this essential ingredient.
