Effective cure booster: ESS Selen Plus

The trace element selenium is involved in a large number of important metabolic processes - especially in muscle and energy metabolism. Its antioxidant characteristics, for example, can protect cells from damage.

A selenium deficiency is detected among other things in a veterinary blood test and manifests itself rather unspecifically, since the trace element is involved in many processes: fatigue, poor performance, lack of fertility and a high susceptibility to infections can indicate an undersupply.
Since selenium is also involved in muscle metabolism, a deficiency can also manifest itself in poor muscle growth, stiffness, tension and cramps. In particularly serious cases, horses (especially foals and young horses) have difficulties with overall muscle coordination.
Another indication can be brittle, dull hair and horn - selenium and the trace element zinc are mutually dependent, which is why a deficiency can also occur at the same time.

How does ESS Selen Plus work?

ESS Selen Plus provides the horse with high doses of selenium and vitamin E to compensate for an existing deficiency and to protect against further deficits.
The majority of all horses in Europe show a slight to severe selenium deficiency, since the trace element is taken up with the feed and fodder plants and pastures grown in Europe contain very little selenium: The concentration of selenium in the topsoil decreases sharply from northern to southern Europe. An adequate basic supply is therefore rarely guaranteed.
