UltraCruz® Equine Wellness Performance Supplement for Horses
- Supports total body health
- Contains vitamins and minerals
- Provides Omega 3 Fatty Acids
- For use in horses and foals
- Soy free formulation
UltraCruz® Equine Wellness Performance Supplement for Horses is a foundation wellness formula with essential ingredients chosen to support total body health in horses. This product is formulated to offer support on the cellular level for healthy joints, bones, hooves and skin, while also reinforcing healthy immune, digestive and reproductive systems.
This unique health and wellness formula contains vitamins A, D, E and B12 to support a healthy coat, and Zeolite Silicon (Hydrated Sodium Calcium Aluminiosilicate) to support healthy cartilage and connective tissue formation. Montmorillonite Clay, an organomineral, helps to maintain healthy intestinal microflora. Biotin, L-Lysine, Copper, Zinc, Cobalt and Manganese work together to support hoof health. Vitamin E, a fat-soluble vitamin, may help support the immune system. Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid) functions primarily as an antioxidant.
Flax Oil is a natural source of Omega-3 Fatty Acids, which can help with new tissue formation, support digestive efficiency, and provide an excellent caloric addition.
Zeolite Silicon aids with bone growth and density, and helps maintain the strength of connective tissue, such as tendons and ligaments. It can also help with wound healing, cartilage formation, and improves the quality and appearance of skin, hair and hooves.
Vitamin E is most recognized as an antioxidant that works closely with Selenium and Vitamin C to help protect the body from the oxidative stress of exercise, illness and certain medical conditions. Vitamin C is an antioxidant that works with Vitamin A and Vitamin E to protect the tissues of the body, especially those of the respiratory system.
Biotin is a member of the B-vitamin family that helps improve growth rate and hardness of hooves due to its role in collagen formation. In addition, it may support proper insulin and glucose levels.
Zinc is involved in over 100 enzyme systems, from connective tissue formation and antioxidant protection to carbohydrate metabolism and immune system function. It is most recognized for its role in supporting healthy skin and hooves.
Manganese is necessary for formation of chondroitin sulfate. It is also essential in carbohydrate and fat metabolism.
Copper is required for production of connective tissues including tendons, ligaments, cartilage and bone. It is also involved in making Iron available to the body for blood, in producing skin and coat pigments, in proper nerve signaling and in repairing antioxidants.
Several research publications have discussed the impact that Soy may have on horses. To help those customers that are concerned about soy in their horses’ diet, we are now offering our new Advanced Joint in a Soy-free formula. Some horses have been shown to exhibit soy sensitivity and soy has also been reported to have possible negative impacts on horses, including allergic reactions, decreased endocrine function, digestive upsets, and hormonal imbalance (primarily affecting estrogen).
Soy can be especially harmful to those horses that have existing metabolic disorders, including Hypothyroidism and Cushing’s Syndrome.

- Reduce waste
All San Juan Ranch performance and breeding horses use UltraCruz® Equine pelletized products.
I have used several different supplements and constantly looking for what product carries the best ingredients. I switched over to the UltraCruz® Equine Wellness on all of our horses, and have been very pleased with the results. Have been a faithful customer now for 4 years.

I've had my horse on UltraCruz® Equine Wellness for some time now. He's an off track thoroughbred, but no one believes it because of how well he holds weight. It was a huge struggle keeping weight on him before I got this product, and now even the saddle fitter mistook him for a warmblood.

I have recently added the UltraCruz® Equine Wellness Supplement to my horses feeding program. Wow, within two weeks I noticed a huge difference in the texture and color of their coats, they became true black instead of bleached orange, their hooves have improved, and they outshine everyone! I have tried several different supplements and I am highly impressed with the quality, freshness, consistency, and most of all....the customer service!!!! Never switching to anything else! I love the canine products too!

I have been using UltraCruz® Equine Wellness for a couple months now and everyone has noticed the improvement in my mares. Their coats are glossy, the farrier even asked what I was giving them because of the marked improvement in their feet. I have struggled with getting one of my mares to eat any supplements, and this one she LOVES! Overall 5 stars for the quality ingredients, reasonable price and the fact my mares LOVE the taste!
Angi and Abby-Lou the mare
I bought UltraCruz Equine Wellness for a young reining mare that was not coming on as well as she should have been. In less than a month, her coat improved so much you could see the visible difference. Her coat went from a dull yellow palomino to a beautiful shiny golden bronze. She has gained weight, started growing up and is more bright in her overall attitude. I can't say enough good things about this product. If you have one that looks OK, but could use a boost, then this is what I'd use to help get them over the hump.
