Bone-Biome: Supporting Strong Bones and a Healthy Gut Through Every Stage of Development
When it comes to raising and developing horses, strong skeletal development and a healthy digestive system are two important pieces of the nutritional picture.
Bone-Biome is an innovative pelleted supplement designed to support both — combining targeted nutritional support for bone development with ingredients selected to help maintain a balanced gut microbiome.
While Bone-Biome is an excellent nutritional addition for broodmares, foals and growing youngstock, its benefits extend well beyond early development. It can also provide nutritional support for young horses entering training, horses in sales preparation and performance horses facing the demands of travel and competition.
A Dual Approach to Bone & Gut Health
Bone-Biome takes a unique approach by supporting skeletal integrity and microbiome health in one formula.
The nutrient-rich pellet provides key nutrients involved in bone development and includes ingredients to support digestive health and immune function — making it a versatile addition to the diets of horses at different stages of development and workload.
Supporting Strong Skeletal Development
Bone development is particularly important during the early stages of a horse's life, when the skeleton is rapidly developing and adapting to growth and increasing physical demands.
Bone-Biome provides a targeted combination of:
-
Triple-source calcium to support healthy skeletal development
-
Highly bioavailable phosphorus to provide a readily available source of this essential mineral
-
Marine-derived magnesium to complement the mineral profile
-
Lysine, an essential amino acid supporting growth and tissue development
-
Glutamine, an amino acid involved in a range of physiological processes
Together, these nutrients provide nutritional support for maintaining skeletal integrity through periods of growth and development.
Supporting the Gut Microbiome
The gut microbiome plays an important role in the overall health and wellbeing of the horse.
Bone-Biome includes yeast-derived Beta-Glucans (1-3, 1-6) to support a balanced gut microbiome and immune function.
Maintaining digestive stability can be particularly important during periods of change or increased demand, including weaning, sales preparation, the transition into training, travelling and frequent competition.
More Than a Broodmare Supplement
Bone-Biome is particularly suited to pregnant and lactating mares, supporting the nutritional demands associated with breeding and early development.
But its application doesn't stop there.
Foals & Weanlings
For young, growing horses, Bone-Biome provides targeted nutritional support for skeletal development while helping maintain a healthy gut microbiome.
Fast-Growing Youngstock
Periods of rapid growth place increasing nutritional demands on the developing horse. Bone-Biome can form part of a balanced nutritional program designed to support skeletal integrity and digestive health.
Young Horses Entering Training
As a young horse begins training, its body must adapt to increasing physical demands. Bone-Biome provides nutritional support for skeletal health while helping maintain gut and immune function during this important transition.
Horses in Sales Preparation
Sales preparation can bring changes in routine, environment, diet and workload. Bone-Biome supports skeletal integrity, digestive health and overall nutritional wellbeing during this demanding period.
Performance Horses
Travel, competition and changes in routine can place additional demands on the horse. Bone-Biome provides nutritional support for bone integrity, gut health and immune function in horses travelling and competing frequently.
Horses on Box Rest
Periods of restricted movement can also be a time when maintaining appropriate nutritional support is important. Bone-Biome can be incorporated into a suitable feeding program during periods of box rest.
Key Ingredients at a Glance
Triple-Source Calcium
Provides targeted calcium support for healthy skeletal development.
Highly Bioavailable Phosphorus
A readily available source of phosphorus, an essential mineral for skeletal health.
Marine-Derived Magnesium
Provides magnesium as part of the formula's targeted mineral profile.
Lysine & Glutamine
Amino acids supporting growth, development and normal physiological function.
Yeast-Derived Beta-Glucans (1-3, 1-6)
Selected to support gut microbiome balance and immune function.
Building Strong Foundations
From the broodmare and foal through to the young horse entering training, nutritional requirements evolve as the horse grows and its workload changes.
Bone-Biome provides a convenient way to support two important areas of equine health — skeletal integrity and gut microbiome health — in one targeted pelleted supplement.
Whether you're breeding the next generation, preparing youngstock for sale, introducing a young horse to training or supporting a horse through frequent travel and competition, Bone-Biome is designed to help provide a strong nutritional foundation.
Strong bones. Healthy gut. Better development.
Always feed supplements as directed and consider the horse's overall diet, workload, age and individual nutritional requirements when developing a feeding program.
