EQI® Protector is a unique and comprehensive immune support solution for foals and horses. EQI® Protector is formulated with several key ingredients, including colostrum, prebiotics, vitamins, and minerals that promote passive and active immunity, stimulate the immune system, and support a healthy gut.
Before gut closure in newborns, immunoglobulins are absorbed through the intestinal wall to provide immunity for the first weeks of life. Drives the maturation of systemic active and passive immunity.
The binding of Mannan-Oligosaccharides to cell surface structures of gram-negative pathogens reduces their ability of epithelial attachment and increases their elimination.
Colostrum contains a high proportion of bioactive substances such as growth factors, immune and antimicrobial factors that promote physical development and overall performance.
Animals require high quality energy in times of reduced feed intake, or during resource-heavy processes like growth, production, recovery, or high stress to remain in a positive energy balance.
A targeted combination of vitamins and/or minerals can support various metabolic, hormonal, and immunological processes in times of increased demand and compensate possible deficiencies.
The health and vitality of horses is largely dependent on their immunity. This is especially true for newborn foals. Their survival and development are inextricably linked to the timely and adequate intake of colostrum. However, due to a variety of circumstances, many foals may experience a deficiency in colostrum intake, leaving them vulnerable to life threatening diseases and weakened immunity.
This is where EQI® Protector proves invaluable. EQI® Protector is a unique and comprehensive solution designed to boost immunity for foals and horses. At the core of EQI® Protector is the natural bovine colostrum powder B.I.O.Ig, which provides a wealth of antibodies that support early immunization and contribute to local immunity in the intestine.
The protective effect is enhanced by TechnoMos®, a prebiotic extracted from the yeast cell wall that helps to bind gram-negative bacteria in the intestinal tract and promotes the stimulation of an appropriate immune response.
EQI® Protector also contains B.I.O.Key® organically bound trace mineral chelates. B.I.O.Key® chelates are highly bioavailable for development and immune cell function support. EQI® Protector also provides optimal support for the immune system with the addition of essential vitamins and medium-chain triglycerides as a readily available, easily digestible energy source.
EQI® Protector is crucial in scenarios of insufficient colostrum supply, such as loss of the mare, delayed lactation, or uncertain maternal colostrum quality. It is also beneficial during stressful events like weaning or after antibiotic therapy to rejuvenate the intestinal microbiota. Adult horses also benefit, especially after vaccination or deworming, during a diet change, or during convalescence.
With EQI® Protector, breeders and horse owners can ensure the growth and health of their foals and horses—bridging immunity gaps and paving the way for their performance potential to flourish. EQI® Protector reliably supports your horse’s health, right from the start!
