Purica Equine L-Lysine – 800g

Purica Equine L-Lysine provides a critical essential amino acid that is often lacking in standard horse diets. As a key building block for protein, Lysine is vital for the formation of robust collagen, which supports the structural integrity of skin, joints, and connective tissues. Since cereal grains and grasses are typically low in this nutrient, supplementation ensures your horse has the necessary components for healthy growth, tissue repair, and overall structural strength.

Product Benefits

  • Collagen Support: Essential for the formation of strong collagen bonds to maintain healthy skin and joints.
  • Addresses Dietary Gaps: Replenishes the most commonly deficient amino acid in equine diets based on grains and grass.
  • Growth & Repair: Supports proper muscle development and tissue repair in foals, yearlings, and mature horses.
  • Structural Integrity: Helps maintain the strength of ligaments, tendons, and joint structures.
  • Pure Formula: Contains high-quality L-Lysine hydrochloride with no artificial additives or fillers.

Ingredients

  • 1 scoop contains

    L-Lysine hydrochloride 
    (8g = 1 tablespoon)
    8 g

Recommended Dosage

  • Foals & Yearlings: Give 1/2 scoop (4g) daily, administered orally.
  • Mature Horses: Give 1/2 to 1 scoop (4g to 8g) daily, top-dressed on feed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is Lysine considered a "limiting" amino acid? Lysine is called a limiting amino acid because if a horse does not have enough of it, the body cannot fully utilize other amino acids to build proteins. This can slow down growth and tissue repair.

Does my horse get enough Lysine from hay? Most common cereal grains and grasses are naturally low in Lysine. Depending on the quality of your hay and pasture, many horses require supplementation to meet their daily requirements for optimal health.

How does Lysine help with joint health? Lysine is necessary for the production of collagen, which is the main structural protein in connective tissues. By supporting collagen formation, Lysine helps maintain the strength and flexibility of joints and tendons.

Can I use this for my senior horse? Yes. Senior horses often benefit from extra Lysine to help maintain muscle mass and support aging joints and skin.

Is it easy to administer? Yes, the powder is designed to be top-dressed onto your horse's regular feed, making it a simple addition to their daily routine.

Cautions

Not for use in horses intended for food. Store in a cool, dry place. Keep the container tightly closed to maintain freshness. Consult a veterinarian if your horse has specific health concerns or is on a restricted diet.
