• Racehorses in regular training and racing 
• Horses which have experienced mild to severe tying up before (exertional rhabdomyolysis, set-fast), or are considered at risk of the condition
• High performance horses in equestrian sports, such as show-jumping, dressage or eventing, at an advanced or elite level or higher
• Horses with poor muscle health which regularly experience muscle soreness or ‘hardness’ of the muscles
• Endurance horses in regular training and endurance competition
• Horses which fatigue early during exercise or racing, fail to finish a race or multi-day equestrian competition with proper strength and speed or ‘hit the wall’ at the end of the race. 
• Horses with a lack of antioxidants in their diet or those needing extra nutritional help to perform to their natural ability
• Horses which lack the ability to recover quickly after racing, endurance or high performance equestrian competition
• Horses which lose muscle bulk during or after a race or a multi-day equestrian competition
• For any horse which has an upcoming race or competition, Power & Protect helps as a nutritional supplement to prepare and enable their muscles to perform at peak intensity, supported with nutrients linked to reducing the risk of oxidative damage and improving muscle energy production.  

Power & Protect is scientifically formulated and extensively tested in field research trials with multiple ingredients for muscle health and function.  

 ✔   Antioxidant vitamins, including Vitamin A, Vitamin C and Vitamin E (special natural and protected forms)

✔  High potency antioxidant minerals, Selenium (as organic chelated selenomethionine) and Magnesium (as organic protein chelate)

✔  A concentrated level of DHA (natural Omega-3 Docosahexaenoic Acid) 

 ✔  Protein (with Branched Chain Amino Acids (BCAAs) and Essential Amino Acids) for muscle health and to rebuild damaged muscles

✔  A high concentration of pure Beta-Alanine, a natural precursor of muscle L-carnosine

✔  Other added extra amino acids for muscle health and energy, including L-Carnitine, L-Arginine and L-Glutamine. 

✔  Also includes highly desirable synergistic nutrients that may help muscle performance, such as Co-Enzyme Q10 and Natural Superoxide Dismutase Enzyme (SOD)

✔  A powdered supplement with a palatable vanilla flavour  

Power & Protect does not swab or contain banned substances and does not contravene the Rules of Racing or FEI Competition. This product is a nutritional supplement to support the health and well-being of a horse. It does not artificially enhance the performance of racing or competition horses. Rules prohibiting the use of any pre-race supplements within 24 hours of racing should be followed if applicable in the local jurisdiction.

Each level scoopful of Power & Protect provides 15 grams.  

For horses (400 – 650 kg body weight), mix Power & Protect into the daily feed with the following guidelines.  Power & Protect is normally given in the daily hard feed, although we recommend not providing it in the same feed as liquid or powered iron or trace-mineral supplements as these reactive minerals may damage the nutrients in Power & Protect.  Power & Protect can be also made into a paste or even provided in the same paste mix with Muscle XL or Gastro-Coat.  

Routine Supplementation:  15 grams provided at a minimum of 3 times a week when a horse is in regular hard training and a busy racing or competition schedule.  It is best to feed the supplement on the evening prior to the more intense exercise.  However, many of the nutrients in Power & Protect are helpful as an ongoing supplement and can be fed long term without a critical dosage time window.  

Muscle Problems:  One scoop (15 grams) of Power & Protect every day for horses which experience ‘tying-up’ (Exertional Rhabdomyolysis, ‘Set-fast’) or poor muscle health and function that affects their ability to perform.  These horses may often be sore or ‘hard’ in the muscles, lack stamina or recover poorly from regular hard training, racing, endurance or Equestrian competition.  

Pre-Race or Before Competition Supplementation:  30 grams of Power & Protect each day for 3 days before racing, endurance or moderate to intense equestrian competition*.

Post-Race or After Competition Supplementation:  30 grams Power & Protect for 3 days following racing or an event to help recovery and turn-around after the event.
