Equine C (Vitamin C for horses)

* Vitamin C is an essential water-soluble antioxidant formula for horses that supports circulation, the immune system, and cardiovascular function.
* Equine Vitamin C is 100% pure Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C) and is an excellent complement to the horse’s diet as Vitamin C neutralizes free radicals during times of stress, injury and illness.
-Free radicals contribute to many of the health problems that are associated with aging. As horses age, their plasma levels of Vitamin C decrease and their immune system becomes less effi cient. Equine Vitamin C is a powerful free radical scavenger that protects the body’s cells and supports the immune system.

* Vitamin C in required for production of collagen and other structural elements of connective tissue in cartilage and joint health (like elastin, fi bronectin, proteoglycans, and bone matrix).
