Excellent Equi Salmon Oil for Horse Health 2.5L

Equi Salmon Oil Fine Scottish salmon oil, rich in omega 3 (EPA and DHA), 6 and 9 fatty acids. This feed for horses and ponies supports overall health, promotes the natural immune system and supports joint function. In addition, Equi salmon oil has a beneficial effect on the heart, stimulates appetite and provides more energy. Salmon oil and linseed oil Both salmon oil and linseed oil contain essential fatty acids. These are fatty acids that the body cannot produce while the body needs them for normal functioning. The big difference between salmon oil and flaxseed oil is in the types of omega 3 fatty acids. Flaxseed oil is particularly rich in type 1 omega 3 fatty acids (ALA), while salmon oil is also rich in EPA and DHA in addition to ALA. This ALA is mostly present in vegetable oil, while EPA and DHA are mainly found in animal oil. ALA fatty acids must first be converted by the horse to EPA and DHA for use in the body. However, this process is quite inefficient, resulting in only 5-10% conversion. Animal EPA and DHA omega 3 fatty acids can be used directly by the horse, which means that omega 3 fatty acids given through salmon oil are used much more efficiently.
