Nature Vet Untie
UNTIE aids in the prevention of all stages of the metabolic process of Exertional Myopathy, or Tying Up in horses.
UNTIE provides all of the essential electrolytes, nutrients and co-factors to ensure maximal oxygen supply to hard working muscles, as well as maximum endurance. Thiamine (Vitamin B1) plays a vital role in conversion of the muscle waste products lactic and pyruvic acids. A deficiency of B1 leads to accumulation of these acids with subsequent muscle soreness, weakness, weight loss, irritability and nervousness. Although B1 levels in quality grain diets are usually adequate, they can be low in over mature grains and hay, and the demand for B1 in working horses is much higher than normal.
Alpha tocopherol (Vitamin E) is necessary for integrity of cell membrane tissues, and is an essential co-factor in the synthesis of Vitamin C. Deficiency of Vitamin E is characterised by muscle weakness and wasting, high SGOT levels in serum, and ECG changes.
Electrolytes: a balanced level of sodium, chloride and bicarbonate electrolytes are provided in UNTIE. Potassium chloride: cereal grains and feeds frequently have inadequate levels of potassium, and racing or hard working horses with low potassium levels show reduced appetite, easy exhaustion, over excitability, and disturbances in tissue fluid balance.
