ß-CAROTIN
ß-Carotene is a precursor of vitamin A with antioxidant effects, positive influence on the formation of follicles and the corpus luteum in the mare’s ovary. In mares, ß-carotene stimulates the hormone synthesis in the ovaries, encouraging regular cycle activity and estrus. Stallions can react to a ß-carotene deficiency with the regression of testicular tissue, which severely impairs spermatogenesis and testosterone synthesis. This results in poor sperm quality and reluctance to cover the mare.
Vitamin A can stimulate the synthesis of sex hormones (LH/FSH), which promotes the maturation of the follicle and the formation of the uterine mucosa to get ready for the nidation of a fertilized egg cell.
Vitamin E (antioxidant) contributes to the protection of uterine cell walls against the penetration of pathogens.
Fish oil facilitates the absorption of vitamin A in the small intestine. Fish oil is rich in highly digestible unsaturated omega-3 fatty acids (EPA + DHA) which can promote cell renewal.
