Intense exercise leads to the production of lactic acids in the muscles, resulting in a pH decrease in the muscles and muscle acidification. Muscle acidification can result in stiffness and reduced performance due to the horse being less souple.
Alpha Lipoic Acid is a powerful antioxidant that neutralises free radicals in the body which are released during intense exercise (1). This prevents muscle damage. Supplementing alpha-lipoic acid also supports and aids the breakdown of lactic acid in the muscles, reducing stiffness after exercise (2). Alpha Lipoic Acid also supports healthy blood sugar levels and enhances the energy capacity of the body (3).
The addition of B-Vitamins promotes calm behaviour due to the important function the vitamins exert on the nervous system (4).
