Pellet vs. Powder Supplement Formulations
UltraCruz® Supplements are now available in pelletized formulations. By using pellets, rather than powder, we have been able to:
- Ensure stability of active ingredients
- Maximize product freshness
- Reduce waste
All San Juan Ranch performance and breeding horses use UltraCruz® Equine pelletized products.
