Nupafeed L-Carnitine Supplement for Horses is a unique
L-Carnitine based liquid that is entirely legal. L-Carnitine is being
increasingly used by human athletes to improve stamina, power and muscle mass.
Nupafeed have developed the compound for use with horses, combining it with MAH
which is vital as it aids absorption and delivery of the L-Carnitine to its
target tissues.
L-Carnitine is a compound made in the liver and is
involved with mobilizing fat stores to provide muscle cells with the glucose
they need to produce energy. This form of energy production is the most
efficient both in terms of the amount of energy gained and in that it does not
produce the same harmful toxins (lactic acid, free radicals etc) which are
associated with other sources of energy production. We demand far higher levels
of work and fitness than the horse has naturally evolved to produce, meaning
that their L-Carnitine production does not always meet their needs.
Because L-Carnitine works by improving the efficiency
of the horses own energy production it has no heating effect and the benefit is
noticed most markedly when the horse would normally be beginning to tire and is
therefore extremely helpful when more stamina is required and recovery times
need to be reduced.
Continual use of the Nupafeed L-Carnitine Supplement
For Horses helps to improve muscle mass and therefore power. Normally, when the
tissue is not getting enough energy from glucose metabolism, other forms of
substrate must be used including proteins and other fundamental building blocks
which are needed to maintain and build muscle cells. Ensuring the horse has
enough L-Carnitine helps to improve glucose delivery so sparing these other
substrates making them available to build muscle and by doing so also helps to
prevent the build up of harmful toxins which are associated with muscle damage
at a cellular level.
L-Carnitine has also been proven to improve fertility
in stallions and may also help to reduce heat production as a result of hard
exercise meaning that it may be extremely helpful when competing in hot weather
especially when the horse has had insufficient time to acclimatise.
