Flaxseed oil is extremely beneficial for your horse. It is extracted from the seeds of the flax plant, which contain as much as 40% oil. This flaxseed oil is naturally rich in vitamins A, D, E, K, and the essential polyunsaturated fatty acids linoleic acid and linolenic acid. This offers numerous health benefits for your horse.
The high content of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids in flaxseed oil has a very positive effect on digestion. The oil provides a soft intestinal lining and creates a protective layer over it. This helps to maintain optimal intestinal function. It is highly recommended to administer flaxseed oil to horses that are prone to colic.
The proper ratio of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids in flaxseed oil contributes to a beautiful shiny coat for your horse. Additionally, these fatty acids play an important role in the development of the nervous system and the maintenance of strong bones.
Flaxseed oil serves as an energy source for your horse. In addition to food, exercise, thermoregulation, and training, the shedding process also requires a lot of energy from your horse. Giving flaxseed oil can increase the energy level of your horse, resulting in smoother shedding and a beautiful glossy coat.
Due to its abundance of omega-3 fatty acids, flaxseed oil can also act as an anti-inflammatory agent. This can contribute to the healing process of summer eczema.
Furthermore, this specific flaxseed oil is enriched with CBD, which enhances its strengthening effects. CBD has anti-inflammatory properties, contributes to great endurance, aids in muscle building, and promotes healthy digestion. Moreover, it has calming and pain-relieving effects.
CBD + flaxseed oil is the ultimate combination to give your horse when its stomach and intestines are not functioning optimally or when it experiences stress or colic sensitivity.
