WHAT IS IT?

Lithothamne is a marine red algae that thrives in shallow ocean beds. Once dried, its vibrant red thallus turns into a mineral-rich white powder. It is valued for its remineralizing properties, providing a wealth of essential nutrients and elements.

HOW DOEST IT WORK?

Lithothamne's unique composition provides a wide range of benefits:

• • Macro-Minerals: Rich in calcium (carbonate), magnesium, phosphorus, and potassium to support bone health, energy metabolism, and muscle contraction.
• • Trace Elements: Contains iron, zinc, selenium, copper, and manganese, essential for cellular function, immune support, and muscle oxygenation.
• • Amino Acids: Proline for collagen production; lysine, aspartic acid, and glutamic acid for cellular metabolism and immune function.
• • Vitamin C: Antioxidant properties, improved iron absorption, and enhanced immunity.
• Additionally:
• • Reduces Gastric Acidity: Its alkaline nature helps neutralize stomach acid and supports intestinal transit, making it effective for horses with ulcers or other gastric sensitivities.
  • Strengthens Bones and Muscles: Combines calcium, magnesium, and phosphorus for robust skeletal and muscular health.
  • Improves Oxygen Transport: Iron supports hemoglobin and myoglobin synthesis, critical for transporting oxygen to muscles.

Lithothamne is a versatile supplement ideal for growth, recovery, and maintaining overall vitality in horses.
