Why Choose 'Muscle Up'.
Unlike standard soybean meal, Muscle Up is GM FREE and offers a concentrated protein source with nearly 90% bioavailability. A powerhouse of complete plant protein, for equine muscle development and general health. The high-heat extrusion process destroys trypsin inhibitors while increasing the digestibility of the amino acids by up to 30%.
Key Amino Acids & Equine Benefits
-
Lysine: The most critical amino acid for horses. Without enough lysine, your horse cannot effectively use any other proteins in their diet.
- Benefit: Supports significant muscle growth, topline development, and a robust immune system.
-
Threonine: Often the second most critical amino acid.
- Benefit: Vital for gut health by building the protective mucin lining in the digestive tract. It also aids in tissue repair and muscle maintenance.
-
Methionine: A sulfur-bearing amino acid essential for structural integrity.
- Benefit: Crucial for building keratin, the primary protein in hooves and hair. It supports strong, crack-resistant hooves and a glossy, deep-shining coat.
-
Leucine, Isoleucine, & Valine (BCAAs): Known as Branched-Chain Amino Acids.
- Benefit: These act as a direct energy source for muscles during intense work. They help reduce muscle fatigue, speed up post-exercise recovery, and protect against muscle breakdown.
-
Arginine:
- Benefit: Improves blood circulation by producing nitric oxide, which dilates blood vessels. This helps deliver more oxygen to hardworking muscles and supports faster healing of wounds or injuries.
-
Tryptophan:
- Benefit: A precursor to serotonin, essential for regulating appetite and supporting a balanced nervous system.
-
Phenylalanine:
- Benefit: Involved in the production of skin pigments and serves as a natural building block for neurotransmitters that manage pain and mood.
