Competitive is the complementary feed in syringe format ideal for use in the pre-race of long competitions, such as endurance. Competitive seeks to support the horse from an energetic point of view, offering it ready-to-use energy, to be used during the race. Competitive is formulated with branched-chain amino acids, L-carnitine, L-lysine and Vitamin E, very important substances for those horses that perform sports activities.

When to use it

Competitive is ideal for those who want to provide their horse with energy for long-lasting races, such as endurance, and an additional supply of vitamin E.

Properties of its elements

The branched-chain amino acids (valine, leucine and isoleucine) perform a medium-long lasting energetic action indicated, for example, in long races such as endurance and eventing (3). In the energy production process, L-carnitine is responsible for transporting fatty acids into the mitochondria, thus speeding up their transformation. Carnitine, called glycogen loader, is widely used in competitive preparation protocols for horses, especially in the United States (16). Vitamin E, thanks to its antioxidant function, is useful in muscle blocks (6).

Instructions for use

Use the entire syringe of Competitive 3 hours before a competition and whenever necessary during the gates.

(Given the specificity of each individual organism, it is always good practice to test new food products, gradually introducing them into the horse's diet to evaluate their tolerance).
