PROPERTIES: SOUTER’STM MIN-A-VIT® RACING & BREEDINGTM was originally a Wellcome formulation which has successfully stood the test of time. Even today MIN-A-VIT RACING & BREEDING remains one of the best supplements of its type designed to provide all the essential minerals and vitamins for performance and breeding horses in one product. The importance of minerals and vitamins is often underestimated. The role of minerals and vitamins is to improve the nutrient value of feed by supplementing those nutrients, which are low or inadequate in commonly used grain, protein meals, chaff and hays. MIN- A-VIT RACING & BREEDING contains a balanced level of the essential minerals such as calcium, phosphorus and magnesium for optimum bone and joint growth and development in young horses and the maintenance of the ‘bone bank’ in working horses. It provides a wide range of other nutrients, including the trace-elements of copper, manganese and zinc for joint and growth plate development and vitamin E for muscle development in unborn foals and growing horses. For working horses, MIN-A-VIT RACING & BREEDING helps to maintain bone strength, blood production, muscle function and the immune system, especially in horses on high grain diets. In addition, inclusion of chromium improves growth performance and serum traits as well as reproductive response in horses. This combination of essential nutrients; which include calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, sodium, essential trace-minerals and vitamins; are suitable for all horses whether they are in work, growing, pregnant or lactating.

Commence use with a smaller amount than directed then increase in a stepwise manner over 4-5 days to the full amount as recommended in the following table. One level scoop (supplied in each pack) contains 40 g of MIN-A-VIT RACING & BREEDING.
