Problems with rideability, insufficient muscle tone despite regular training, skin, hoof and coat problems may occur even with an adequate supply of vitamins and minerals. These problems are often caused by an insufficient supply of essential amino acids.
Amino pur’s special composition of air-dried meadow grasses and herbs, spirulina and linseed makes it especially suitable for horses with delicate metabolisms. It can sensibly compensate for a deficiency of essential amino acids without overloading the metabolism with excess protein. Amino pur is rich in highly available amino acids – particularly threonine, methionine and lysine.
AREAS OF USE
- in case of low-protein / grain-free nutrition
- easy keepers (horses and ponies)
- for specific supply with essential amino acids
- in case of high need during muscle enhancement training
- young horses during growth, carrying or lactating mares
- old horses and horses with a thick coat

Complementary feed for horses, ingredients:
Meadow grasses and herbs (hot air-dried, ground)1, spirulina algae, linseed
1Prenatura®-fibres
Feeding Recommendation
- as cure over 4 to 8 weeks and for permanent feeding also. When fed directly before or after training, the best effectiveness is reached.
15 - 20 g per 100 kg body weight per day
(1 level measuring spoon = approximately 20 g)
What are amino acids and for what does the body need them?
Amino acids are the individual components of proteins (proteinogenic amino acids). After water, proteins and their single components, the amino acids, are the second most contained substance in a horse's body.
Amino acids are not only components of musculature, tendons and ligaments, skin and hair but also components of the immune system and basic substance for enzymes and hormones. Amino acids function as blood protein bodies and fulfil different functions of transportation. They are parts of the membranes, protect the neural pathways and are carries of genetic information.
Why a sufficient supply with all essential amino acids is so important, can be explained by the minimum principle by Liebig.

Do hay and grass not have enough protein, in order to supply the horse with amino acids?
Many times not, because the digestibility of proteins varies. Also, hay harvested late, does not contain high amount of protein and, therefore, no high amount of essential amino acids. Especially the essential amino acid threonine is only slightly contained in hay harvested late - often the horses show a deficiency here.
What horses specifically should be supported with Amino Pur?
1. Horses with an increased need of amino acids:
- horses during muscle build-up training
- horses with metabolic disorders (e.g. Cushing)
- Pregnant and lactating mares
- aged horses
- horses with a heavy coat
- horses that have problems during coat changing
- sick horses
2. Horses, that are fed low in protein:
- easy keepers / ponies
- horses with EMS
- horses with liver or kidney diseases
- horses, that have a grain-free diet
- horses with summer eczema
Can my horse be overdosed with amino acids by Amino Pur? Can this lead to problems?
When feeding according to the feeding recommendation, an overdosage of amino acids is not possible.
But, just as in cases of an extended supply of protein, also excessive and long-lasting feeding of exceeded amounts of Amino Pur (excessively more than the feeding recommendation) can burden the horse's detoxication functions.
Can I permanently feed Amino Pur or should it only be supplemented as a cure?
Both options are possible. Permanent feeding makes sense when the ration is low in protein on a long-term basis and, therefore, contains an insufficient amount of essential amino acids (often the case in easy keepers or horses with metabolic disorders).
Cure-type feeding can be suggested in cases of sporadic increased need, e.g. in the late phase of pregnancy, lactation, after sickness, during coat changing, during training/competition,...
Is Amino Pur also appropriate for horses with a sensitive metabolism?
Yes, definitely! Especially horses with a sensitive metabolism often need a special diet, which provides an insufficient amount of essential amino acids (e.g. feeding hay harvested late, grain-free diet,…).
Does Amino Pur substitute a mineral feed or should this be supplemented additionally?
Amino Pur is purely a supplier of amino acids and, therefore, does not replace mineral feed. An adequate mineral feed should be fed in addition.
How does Amino Pur have the best effect?
There are indications, that supplementation of amino acids shortly before as well as shortly after performance is most reasonable for further processing in the horse's body.
Is Amino Pur conform to ADMR, can I feed it to eventing horses?
Yes,
Amino Pur can be fed directly before or during competition. Waiting periods are not necessary.
