Vita C effect is a multi-species nutritional supplement used to supplement animals deficient in vitamin C, or during critical or stressful periods.
Under normal conditions, adult horses do not seem to suffer from vitamin C deficiency. However, requirements may be increased in sport horses undergoing intensive training.
Vitamin C, a vitamin with multiple properties, is involved in a LARGE NUMBER OF BODY FUNCTIONS:
Under normal conditions, adult horses do not seem to suffer from Vitamin C deficiency, as they can synthesize this vitamin in their bodies. However, it's important to note that vitamin C requirements can vary according to various factors, including the horse's level of physical activity.
Sport horses in intensive training or competition may have increased requirements for Vitamin C to support their energy metabolism, immune system and muscle recovery.
Vitamin C plays a crucial role in many functions of the horse's body. Here are some of its main functions and actions:
Vitamin C is known to stimulate lymphocytes, a type of white blood cell involved in the body's immune defense. It thus boosts the horse's ability to resist and fight off disease.
By acting on immune functions, Vitamin C helps boost the horse's overall vitality. A robust immune system is essential for maintaining the animal's health and well-being.
Vitamin C acts as a powerful antioxidant, protecting body tissues against damage caused by free radicals and toxins. It thus helps maintain cellular health.
Vitamin C is necessary for wound healing. It promotes the formation of healthy scar tissue, which is particularly important for horses prone to skin or muscle injuries.
It is also required in the synthesis of connective tissue, which is essential for maintaining the structure and function of joints, tendons and ligaments.
Vitamin C plays a key role in protecting other vitamins, notably vitamin B and vitamin E, against oxidation. This action helps maintain the effectiveness of the horse's entire vitamin system.
