The active ingredient in BoneKare™ is "Quinaquanone®" a water soluble, bio-available form of Vitamin K.
Vitamin K has a critical effect on the function of Osteocalcin, the bone protein that binds the mineral and protein in bone together. Without sufficient Vitamin K the binding process is incomplete and low density or defective bone and cartilage are produced.
Vitamin K is naturally available in fresh, growing green pasture but it is highly unstable, being degraded by UV light, wiltering or "wintering off".
Horses that do not have constant access to high quality pasture are likely to be deficient in Vitamin K, leading to a reduction in bone density and bone strength.
Starting with the broodmares
The development of a healthy bone structure begins during pregnancy. When the fetus receives the right nutrition during gestation it has the best start to becoming a healthy, strong horse.
From weanlings to young sport horses
By feeding BoneKare™ as a prophylaxis, there is a greater certainty that the horse will not develop relevant radiographic changes. This is very important for stabled horses that don’t have constant access to green pasture.
BoneKare™ may help when bone disorders already exist. During the growth phase up until approximately the 3rd to 4th year these changes may be improved.
Bone regeneration after surgery
BoneKare™ may help to rebuild the affected area after arthroscopic surgery (chip removal).
Keeping older horses "fit"
Although the bone regeneration process is significantly reduced after the 3rd to 4th year of age, it may be possible through the supplementation of Bonekare™ that the progressive process of the disease is slowed down or even prevented.
