Keratex Mud Shield Powder

 Waterproofs Legs & Body Against the Effects of Mud & Water.

 

Keratex Mud Shield Powder guards against the effects of mud and water on horses’ legs and body. It will thoroughly disinfect the skin areas as well. Unlike creams and ointments which contribute to further softening of the skin, Keratex Mud and Shield Powder allows the skin to breath while repelling water and mud particles.

During wet weather mud and water can cause serious problems which affect the skin on horses legs and body.

Keratex Mud Shield Powder has a unique waterproofing action which simply stops these problems before they start by preventing water from softening the skin. It is this softening effect of continual water saturation which allows mud particles to enter the pores of the skin and cause irritation, which can then lead to further complications. In addition to waterproofing the hide, Keratex Mud Shield Powder also contains a powerful disinfectant to maintain the skin in a healthy condition.

Apply daily by sprinkling onto clean dry legs and body skin. Rub well into the skin against the lay of the hair.

Use Mud Shield Powder to protect existing skin lesions. This will keep them dry and avoid further infection. Dry scabs will form and these should be allowed to drop off naturally.

Aintree Iron Energy Concentrate

Iron rich liquid providing ‘blood building’ ingredients, ideal for horses and camels in hard work or training. A boost for those animals/ horses & camels who are suffering from anaemia, stress, fatigue, lethargy, loss of appetite or decreased performance.

  • BIOAVAILABLE IRON counteracts a deficiency and aids the production of red blood cells.
  • Vitamins B6, B12, and FOLIC ACID counteract a deficiency and ensure normal red blood cell formation and survival.
  • BIOAVAILABLE COPPER helps the formation of collagen and elastin to maintain blood vessel wall strength.

‘BLOOD BUILDING’ NUTRIENTS
Blood composition is a good indicator of health in the horse and camel due to its role as a transportation system, carrying  nourishment, vital substances, gases and waste material. Red blood cells must be produced continuously in the bone marrow and are crucial to the transport of oxygen to all tissues of the body.

In certain situations, red blood cell production may become disrupted, which may result in fatigue, lethargy, decreased performance or loss of appetite. During times of stress, such as hard work or training, old age, growth and illness, nutritional support may be required to maintain normal red blood cell synthesis.

Iron is required for the formation of haemoglobin in blood and myoglobin in muscle. The levels of iron in a typical diet are generally sufficient, however, availability can become reduced in some diets. A deficiency of vitamin B12 specifically reduces the functionality of red blood cells and this vitamin is also needed to maintain
adequate supplies of the active form of folic acid. Folic acid is necessary for red blood cell formation and maturation and a deficiency can contribute towards anaemia. Vitamin B6 is involved in the formation of haemoglobin and again deficiency is associated with anaemia.

Copper from a natural source promotes the effective absorption of iron and is involved in the formation of collagen and elastin, both important components of blood vessel walls.

Note: For horses and camels in hard / competitive work, feeding Aintree E 1000 & Selenium is recommended, in order to achieve optimum performance and help avoid reduced stamina, premature fatigue and poor recovery from exercise. If in doubt about the health or condition of your horse or camel, you should seek veterinary advice.
