About Pavo ProteinPlusWith poor-quality roughage, a grain-free diet, or an increased protein requirement (e.g., in sport horses or older horses), your horse often doesn't get enough protein to meet its daily needs. With Pavo ProteinPlus, you add only essential amino acids (protein) to your ration. This allows you to easily supplement the protein deficiency to optimally support your horse's overall health without further affecting the ration.Why horses need enough proteinProteins consist of individual building blocks, amino acids, and are crucial for various bodily processes. For example, proteins serve your horse's immune system, coat, and hoof growth, and enable cell renewal. In addition, proteins are essential for muscle development and the regulation of hormonal functions, as well as for the growth of the foal and milk production in broodmares. Sufficient protein in the ration is therefore not only important for the muscles, as many people think, but essential for a healthy horse.When supplementing with a protein supplement is usefulNumerous roughage analyses show that the protein content in our hay is decreasing. So low, in fact, that it can no longer meet the daily protein requirement for maintenance horses. Let alone for horses that participate in intensive sports or pregnant/lactating mares. Supplementing with a protein-rich concentrate feed is an option, but by doing so you often also provide energy, vitamins, and minerals that your horse may not need. An exclusive protein source, such as Pavo ProteinPlus, is the perfect solution!Important propertiesConcentrated high-quality protein sourceExclusively supplements the protein deficiency in the rationRich in essential amino acids (including lysine, methionine and threonine)Supports general healthApplicationVery suitable for:Poor roughage quality (low protein)A grain-free rationThin horses that receive sufficient roughageAn increased protein requirement, such as pregnant/lactating mares, old horses, sport horses, young horses and horses in recoveryPoor coat and hoof quality
