More about this product

Cavalor VitAmino is a protein balancer for excellent muscling and top line. This balancer is a source of high-quality proteins that are easily digestible and have a specific amino acid profile, making an optimal contribution to developing more muscle mass. To build muscle, horses need enough nutrients, and that includes specific amino acids. Cavalor VitAmino contains soy, alfafa and potato protein that contain all the essential amino acids in the right proportions, for maximum efficiency in developing strong muscles. Contains vitamins, trace elements and minerals for a nutritionally balanced diet.

Feed as you need
The foundation of good nutrition for your horse is adequate roughage and access to fresh drinking water. Supplement this base with concentrates or a balancer depending on the individual nutritional needs of the horse. Use supplements to fine tune.

Feeding recommendations for Cavalor VitAmino
We recommend a minimum of 100 g to maximum 200 g per 100 kg body weight per day. For a 600 kg horse this means a minimum of 600 g and a maximum of 1,2 kg per day. Divide the concentrate feed over several portions per day, preferably after feeding roughage.

Improves top line, supports muscle mass
Cavalor VitAmino supports muscle retention and helps your horse build muscle. The protein that muscles are built from is a chain of linked amino acids. Building muscle mass not only takes a sufficient supply of nutrients, which the horse can get from high-quality protein that is digested in the small intestine. The horse also needs enough energy to fuel the process. Besides good nutrition, an adjusted exercise schedule is essential to retain and develop muscle. During exertion, muscles break down. Tiny tears appear in the muscle fibres. This triggers the body to make new muscle fibres. Cavalor VitAmino supplies the amino acids needed to supplement exertion for muscle recovery and development.

Highly digestible protein, balanced amino acid profile
Even more important than protein content is the level of digestible protein. For example, about 50-80% of soy protein is digestible, while hay has much lower levels of digestible protein. The easier the protein is to digest, the less protein is needed to get the right levels of amino acids. Cavalor VitAmino contains easily digestible sources of protein, including soy, potato protein, alfafa and wheat middlings, so the total protein content can remain limited.

The specific composition of Cavalor VitAmino offers an amino acid profile that is very similar to the horse's own muscular proteins. The quantity of each of these amino acids and the relative proportions (amino acid profile) determine effective muscle development. Building muscle requires all the amino acids in the right proportions. If even one amino acid is not present, it will slow the process of building muscle.

Sport essential multi-vitamins
Vitamins can help improve performance by giving a bit of a boost. Vitamin E protects muscle cells against free radicals and supports the natural functioning of the immune system. B-complex vitamins (thiamin, riboflavin, calcium D-pantothenate, pyridoxine hydrochloride, choline chloride, niacin, cyancobalamin, folic acid and biotin) play a key role in energy levels or contribute to improved metabolism of carbohydrates, nerve signals or the supply of oxygen to the muscles.

The results are incredible!
I was looking for a feed for my 17-year-old mare who needs a low-sugar diet, as she is unable to metabolise the high sugar content of other horse feeds. That’s how I came upon Cavalor Fiberforce. My horse loves this mix and hasn’t had any excess muscle acidity since I started feeding it!

The ultimate cool-down
I’ve recently been treating my pony with Cavalor Muscle Cooler following intensive training. There’s no doubt that his muscles are less stiff than they used to be after a hard training session. Hot tendons and muscles return to normal body temperature much faster after using the Muscle Cooler.

A mane to be proud of!
My Friesian's mane is 160 cm long. I care for it with Star Shine to let my superstar shine at every competition, where I always hear lots of “oh’s” and “wow’s” from the spectators.

It’s perfect for a laid-back leisure horse!
My horse has always been a bit lazy more power would be nice. Before I started giving her Cavalor Perfomix, I had to use a lot of leg but I still didn’t manage to get her going forwards. I noticed a big difference even after just a few days and half a scoop of the feed.

No more problems or sweet itch
After trying different feeds, I’ve finally found the right one for my Shetland mare, Annie. I was really worried about her last year, but after changing her management (grazing muzzle and a handful of Fiberforce per day), she’s like a completely different pony!

It’s a great feed
Cavalor Tradition Apple really is a brilliant feed! My pony is always good and waits until I give her some. She is generally greedy and she especially likes the apple pieces. The feed has improved her appearance and her coat has a wonderful shine.
