Nupafeed MAH Magnesium Calmer for Horses For calm without compromise... Our renowned magnesium horse calmer is perfect for any stress related behaviour, muscle tension, and concentration. The unique quality of Nupafeed MAH Magnesium Horse Calmer lays in the way it is refined. The German Pharmaceutical company, Verla-Pharm, pioneered a unique method of refining magnesium to create Magnesium aspartatehydrochloride - MAH. A completely different and superior grade of magnesium to that used in other products, MAH is exclusive to Nupafeed. Verla-Pharm has been supplying the medical industry with their highly acclaimed products since 1949, and for the animal market for the past 30 years. Nupafeed MAH magnesium does not contain L-Tryptophan, herbs or any ingredient that may compromise performance. Our goal is to allow your horse to function normally, preventing stress related

2 behaviour rather than masking behavior with an artificial calm. All animals need to have the correct balance of calcium and magnesium. When a horse is highly strung or becomes stressed, anxious, nervous or excited, they burn off magnesium. This allows calcium to overload muscle and nerve cells causing a rise in the realease of stress hormones and excitatory chemicals. This can cause stress, erratic behaviour, aggression and/or muscle tension. MAH is ideal for any stress related behaviour, for horses in any discipline of competition, those on box rest, returning to work, competition, foal/youngster preparation for the sales, stallions, pregnant/lactating mares. Nupafeed MAH Liquid Horse Calmer uses a water soluble, complex, pure, amino magnesium which is able to enter the horses system very efficiently and absorb into tissue (magnesium levels in the blood are a poor measure of true magnesium status). Our liquid maintains the healthy balance of calcium and magnesium to keep the horse on an even keel, but without compromising performance. Classen HG et al. Comparative Experimental Study in Animals on Magnesium Absorption from the Gastro-Intestinal Tract in the Forms of Sulfate, Chloride, Aspartate and Aspartate-Hydrochloride. Arzneimittel-Forschung (Drug Research) 1973; 23: Please note that Magnesium Oxide is not included on this graph. Due to the insolubility of Magnesium Oxide, its absorption is very low. This graph demonstrates the absorption rates of different magnesium salts into animals' intestinal tract, showing the efficiency of Magnesium Aspartate-Hydrochloride (MAH). When other magnesium salts plateau, MAH is shown to continue absorbing. MAH magnesium has been developed not only for absorption, but to prevent interference with the body s natural balancing mechanisms. Other forms of magnesium can disrupt ph and ion balance. Because of its unique composition, MAH avoids interference with absorption of other minerals and does not disturb ph balances. Our client base includes professional and Olympic level riders, National Hunt and Flat yards, vets and horse owners who wish for a quieter, happier hack out. Nupafeed Liquid MAH Horse Calmer can be introduced to the horses diet by directly adding to your normal feeding regime. As the compound is totally safe, it allows the level to be adjusted, enabling owners to find a level that suits each individual animal.

3 Nupafeed Staying Power Performance Supplement The healthy way to feed for energy... Nupafeed Staying Power is a unique L-Carnitine based liquid performance supplement for horses, developed to boost energy levels, prevent fatigue, burn fat and build muscle. Staying Power is the only horse supplement that uses pharmaceutical grade liquid L-Carnitine, uniquely developed to contain Verla-Pharm s MAH (magnesium aspartate-hydrochloride) which enables maximum absorption of L-Carnitine into the target tissue. This magnesium content is also beneficial for healthy muscle function and energy metabolism. L-Carnitine is a naturally occurring amino type acid that is produced in the horses' liver. It is L- Carnitine that triggers the process of burning fat to glucose, which the horse can then utilise as energy. L-carnitine allows the transport of vital components of energy production and prevents the build up of waste products that cause fatigue. When animals are required to participate in high demand activities that call for increased stamina and energy, the horses' natural system for producing L-Carnitine may not be able to deal with the increased demand. Reduced levels of L-Carnitine can lead to fatigue and adversely effect performance. All processes that require energy are dependent on magnesium. Magnesium has been suggested to improve the efficiency of energy production explaining its associations with reduced oxygen consumption, reduced lactic acid accumulation and improved endurance. The potential for reduced heat accumulation is especailly important for horses competing in the summer as their large body mass makes it difficult for them to dissipate heat resulting in fatigue. In Staying Power, L-Carnitine and MAH magnesium work together to help your horse produce energy more efficiently enabling them to work harder for longer and recover more quickly. L-Carnitine has also been shown to improve sperm motility and maturation in breeding stallions. Staying Power for Energy Nupafeed Staying power can be used for any horse to promote healthy energy production and prevent fatigue. Use daily for horses that cope poorly with day to day work levels, or to improve strength and fitness in competition animals taking on new levels of work. Alternatively, feed Staying Power as and when required to maximise your horses work capability. Feed for any required period where additional work will be undertaken, or adjust the feeding level to cover energy demands of competition, a lesson, travel, hot weather or to aid recovery after illness. Staying Power for Muscle and Strength Staying Power can also be fed on a daily basis to help build muscle and strength, even in sharp horses. L-Carnitine acts as a trigger for muscle growth and aids recovery thus reducing cell damage, allowing greater growth and development and improving recovery from strenuous exercice. Magnesium is critically involved in all processes that require energy. Studies in atheletes show that magnesium enhances muscle strength making it a vital performance nutrient.

4 Nupafeed Flex GLM Joint Supplement for Horses Joints perform better with Green Lipped Mussel... The innovative Green Lipped Mussel joint supplement for horses that provides unbeatable levels of all round care to soothe and maintain joints. Nupafeed Flex GLM (Green Lipped Mussel) joint supplement is a natural mineral feed additive for horses containing only the highest quality, stabilised, freeze dried Green Lipped Mussel extract. Green Lipped Mussel (Perna Canaliculus) is a shell fish, sourced in New Zealand, which is renowned for its soothing effect on joints, helping to maintain mobility and comfort. This complex natural product contains high levels of long chain DHA and EPA omega-3 which are more effective than the omega-3 found in plants. It also contains two compounds which have been uniquely identified in Green Lipped Mussel; a further, more active omega-3 called ETA and a form of phosphorylated glycogen. In addition to these soothing nutrients, Green Lipped Mussel also contains glycosaminoglycans (vital building blocks for cartilage), amino acids and trace minerals. To make Flex GLM, we have added the favoured anti-oxidants, Selenium and Vitamin E. These assist with cell repair and work to mop up free radicals which are produced in greater quantities during exercise. Finally we add a small amount of MAH magnesium. Magnesium is critical for the proper utilisation of calcium. This not only helps to support bone strength but also helps to prevent calcium pooling in soft tissue and is important for both aging and young developing joints. Flex GLM has been specially formulated to help maintain horses taking part in high demand activities, older horses and those at risk of joint related problems. Sustains mobility & freedom of movement. Supports hard working, aging or developing joints. Contains unrivalled levels of Green Lipped Mussel. Added anti-oxidants & magnesium. Made with grass meal and carrot for palatability. Free of banned substances in accordance with the FEI

5 SeaBuckthorn for Horses From the British Sea Buckthorn Company (BSC) Natural support for gastric and digestive wellbeing, immunity, skin and coat. BSC SeaBuckthorn for Horses is uniquely sourced and processed to ensure a superior quality product. Contains 100% sea buckthorn, no added water. SeaBuckthorn comes from the sea buckthorn plant, Hippophae Rhamnoides which literally means shiny horse. The ancient Greeks named the plant such noting the extraordinary vitality and condition of horses grazing on it, despite otherwise very difficult conditions. While it has a long history of traditional use, recent research has really cast a spotlight on sea buckthorn, the berries earning the label of super fruit. SeaBuckthorn contains an extraordinary array of bioactive nutrients which work synergistically throughout the body, nourishing the fine mucosal membranes which line the entire digestive tract (including the stomach) and respiratory tract, and defending against daily stresses. Uniquely for a plant, sea buckthorn contains all of the Omega oils -3, -6, -7 and -9. While much is made of sea buckthorn s rare Omega-7 content, it is perhaps the remarkable profile of anti-oxidant compounds which most actively contribute to the plants overall benefit. In addition to high levels of vitamins, SeaBuckthorn contains many more unique and sought after anti-oxidants including carotenoids (which give the berries their orange colour), phytosterols, flavonoids and phenolic acids. Anti-oxidants defend against oxidative damage, something the body it continuously subject to but is increased greatly by stressors such as travel and competition, illness, anxiety, strenuous exercise, allergens etc. SeaBuckthorn for Horses is brought to you by The British Seabuckthorn Company. It is an exceptionally high quality product, sourced in the EU, which combines the individual benefits of the berry seed, pulp and juice, with absolutely no added water. Sea buckthorn can be easily and inexpensively sourced from Himalayan regions but poor quality control and lengthy storage times result in huge loss of nutritional value. After extensive research, The British Sea Buckthorn Company have started from scratch, investing in product development within the EU, starting at the point of cultivation and implementing unique processing techniques to ensure a fresh, consistent and truly beneficial end product. BSC SeaBuckthorn for Horses is a highly palatable liquid supplement which can be added to your horse s normal daily feeding regime. Use for any horse or pony showing signs of digestive discomfort or as a general boost to support immunity, vitality and performance. Contains no banned substances in accordance with the FEI and Jockey Club
