Due to many sports activities and various competitions, high-jump horses and other sports horses need diets that provide all the daily needs of energy and protein. Therefore, the nut concentrate for high-jump horses contains materials with high digestibility and rich sources of energy and protein that fulfill the needs of these horses. Thyroid hormones play an essential role in the body’s basal metabolism, and decreased serum levels of these hormones can negatively affect the horse’s performance.
The vitamins and minerals in the supplement increase the metabolism of carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins. Therefore, the perfect and correct activity of the thyroid gland can help achieve the highest potential of the horse.
