Osteovital

Building bone density and strength

OsteoVital provides skeletal support and development to improve bone density and strength. Key ingredients support the prevention and treatment of bone diseases.

Features and Benefits :

  • Contains Vitamin K1 which is required in the diet for the formation of K2.
  • Vitamin K2 (Menaquinone) found in alfalfa is the most potent form of Vitamin K for bone formation.
  • Osteocalcin, a Vitamin K2 dependent protein, binds the mineral and protein in bone together, gives bone its strength.
  • When vitamin K2 is lacking the diet, binding is incomplete and low density, defective bone and cartilage are produced.
  • A good source of Calcium.
  • Contains Vitamin D3 which is important for the absorption of Calcium, Phosphorus and Magnesium.
  • Contains MSM, an anti-inflammatory & osteogenic which plays an important role in metabolism, tissue formation, cell regeneration and formation of keratin & collagen.
  • Suitable for all types of young horses, especially those without access to fresh green forage, including young, fast-growing foals, young horses in pre-training, and for the rehabilitation of horses after bone injuries or problems.
