KENNEL KELP SUPPLEMENT FOR HORSES!
Kennel Kelp Horse Feed Kennel Kelp Supplement for Horses
Horses on Kennel Kelp feed
There has been a lot of debate and controversy in the equestrian world about the potential benefits to be gained from feeding kelp supplements to horses !
There is a danger that iodine toxicities occur when a horse is fed too much kelp - but, if fed with care, kelp can provide unique benefits to a horse's health.
In the Orkney Islands, off the mainland of Scotland, it was noticed that sheep grazing on kelp were generally in better overall condition and had more resistance to illness, especially coughs and respiratory problems such as COPD and SPAOD. This led to the development of specialized feed additives based on kelp.
It appears that the reason kelp may benefit horses and ponies is in both the combination of nutrients and the content of Algins.
It is the iodine content of the kelp used in an equine supplement that is most important.
IODINE IN KENNEL KELP SUPPLEMENT
Iodine is a key trace element in nutrition.
It enters into the life of every cell in the body and its more decisive action is its effect upon the thyroid gland, which, through its secretion of thyroxin, controls the rate of metabolism.
There is a delicate balance to be maintained when feeding ANY equine feed supplements containing iodine. While deficiencies of iodine in a horse's diet can cause goiter in foals, excessive levels of iodine have also been known to cause this condition.
If you have any doubts about the amounts of iodine in a chosen equine kelp supplement it is safer not to add this to a horse or pony's feed.
