Description
ß-carotene is not only a precursor for vitamin A but also is directly implicated in the biosynthesis of progesterone, a hormone central to sperm quality and viability of the stallion as well as all of the different reproductive stages of the broodmare. ß-carotene is involved in follicule maturation, heat cycle, conception and maintenance of pregnancy.ß-CAROTIN supplies on a daily basis (standard sized horse), 500 mg ß-carotene, 10,000 IU vitamin A, 250mg vitamin E as well as unsaturated fatty acids (Omega 3 particularly) which play a vital role in the fertility of mares and stallions.
Usage
ß-CAROTIN use is recommended when the pasture/roughage is less rich in ß-carotene, notably from January to May as well as during the stud season:
- Stallions : when the covering vigour and sperm quality are essential factors
- Broodmares: when the heat quality, viable pregnancies and colostrum quality are the advantages particularly required
