Why Feed Whey Protein to Horses?
Some horses, especially those on low-protein forages or those that require additional muscle mass, can benefit greatly from the high-quality protein in whey protein supplements. Here’s why whey protein is a great addition to your horse’s diet:
- Supports muscle development and topline: Whey protein is a fantastic source of BCAAs (branched-chain amino acids) like leucine, isoleucine, and valine, all of which are crucial for muscle repair, growth, and topline development.
- High biological value: Whey protein has the highest Biological Value (BV) of any protein, meaning it is easily absorbed and used by the horse’s body to build muscle and tissue.
- Rich in essential amino acids: Whey protein contains high levels of lysine, methionine, and threonine, which are necessary for muscle tone, skin health, and hoofs.
- No extra calories: Whey protein offers protein supplementation without extra calories or starch, making it ideal for horses that need extra protein without adding weight or increasing sugar levels.
- Supports hoof and skin quality: For horses with poor hoof wall connection or skin issues, whey protein supports the regeneration of tissues, leading to stronger hooves and improved coat health.
