Laminitus is the inflammation of the sensitive laminae which lie between the hoof and the bone of the horses foot. To help combat this common problem we have developed  a product called Laminator for horses when laminitis is suspected. Laminator is an equine supplement for the nutritional support of the laminae and hoof integrity. Laminator for horses when laminitis is suspected also contains high levels of a unique source of Zinc, bound to an amino acid, a constituent of protein. It makes it all available to the horse, unlike conventional rock based minerals. Zinc in the right form is of paramount importance in producing strong keratin growth in the hoof. We also use very high levels of Biotin (Vitamin H) which when combined with the Zinc works wonders to produce strong new hoof growth. Laminitis was traditionally considered a disease of fat ponies grazing on lush spring and autumn pasture, but it can effect any horse and has even been known to infect both donkeys and mules. It can be caused by over eating or by any condition that leads to toxaemia or septicaemia, such as retention of foetal membranes after foaling, or even by excessive trauma to the feet. It can be an acute or a chronic condition. It is for these reasons that many of our customers are turning to Laminator for horses when laminitis is suspected. Laminator is available in both a powdered and pelleted form and a typical 3kg tub will last around 60 days.
