Biotin
Biotin, also known as vitamin H, plays a key role in the formation of keratin, the basic building block of hooves, hair and nails. This scientifically based finding is at the heart of our topical hoof oil formula, which is specifically designed to optimize the structure and strength of the hooves.
Studies show that biotin not only promotes hoof growth, but also improves hoof quality. External application stimulates the production of healthy, elastic horn material, resulting in resilient hooves that can withstand the stresses of daily training.
Particularly noteworthy is the role of biotin in preventing hoof problems. Research shows that regular use significantly reduces the risk of brittle hooves, hoof cracks and laminitis. This makes our product not just a treatment, but a preventative measure for the long-term hoof health of your horses.
keratin
Our hoof oil with keratin not only contains the power of external care, but also targeted support for the crucial intercellular cement. The intercellular cement plays a crucial role in the structure and strength of the hoof horn by connecting the individual horn cells to one another.
Keratin, the main component of hoof horn, is naturally present in this intercellular cement. Our unique formula uses this natural compound to strengthen and promote intercellular cement. The result is an improved hoof structure from the inside out, resulting in more resilient and healthier hooves.
By specifically enriching the hoof oil with keratin, the intercellular cement is supported to prevent hoof problems and increase resistance to external influences. This is particularly important to minimize cracks, breaks and other problems related to the intercellular cement.
Rely on the proven power of keratin to not only improve the external appearance of the hooves, but also strengthen their structural integrity from within.
Argan oil - The gold of Morocco
Argan oil is known for its rich composition of essential fatty acids (Omega 6 and Omega 9), vitamin E, provitamin A and antioxidants, which make it a particularly effective solution for hoof health.
What makes argan oil special is its ability to create a protective barrier against environmental influences.
