Laminitis Prone Supplement (LPS)
Nutrition for sensitive Laminae. 500ml/1L bottles 5/25L cans.

LPS is a nutritional aid for the management of laminitis in susceptible horses. As a liver tonic LPS helps horses digest their food better and supports the liver in its function of detoxifying the body.

Almost all laminitis is caused by incomplete digestion of food in the hind gut (indigestion). This poor digestion results in the release of acids and toxins into the blood which damages the blood vessels that supply the sensitive laminae in the feet.

. FOR SIMPLE SITUATIONS EXPECT RESULTS IN 2-5 DAYS

PRESENTATION: Liquid - 500ml or 1L bottles (RESTORE LIQUID)

DIRECTIONS: Can be used through out the year Liquid - Start feeding LPS at a high level of 25mls twice daily for an average horse. In severe situations maintain at this level until horses are more comfortable. When the risk of grass is high feed LPS at a level of 10-15 mls twice daily routinely. In less dangerous situations maintenance at 5mls twice daily is sufficient.
