What does SeaPet make for horses?
SeaPet offers two equine products: SeaPet Gold Omega 3 Fish Oil Concentrate and SeaPet Super Joint Formula Powder. Both are aimed at supporting healthy joints, reducing inflammation, and improving the quality and longevity of your horse's life. The original Sea Pet products were developed by Carder Starr in association with veterinarians.
How does omega-3 fish oil help my horse?
It is the omega-3 fatty acids that help counter inflammation in your horse's body. SeaPet Gold Omega 3 Fish Oil provides the biologically-available forms of EPA (Eicosapentaenoic Acid) and DHA (Docosahexaenoic Acid), which are essential for horses. Research has shown EPA helps maintain healthy joint function by reducing the activity of enzymes that damage joint cartilage.
What is in SeaPet Gold Omega 3 Fish Oil, and how much EPA and DHA does it provide?
The ingredients are extremely pure: fish oil (sardines and/or anchovies) plus peppermint oil for added flavor. Each tablespoon provides approximately 4,500 mg of EPA and 3,000 mg of DHA. Most horse owners start to see health benefits within 2 to 3 weeks.
How much SeaPet Fish Oil should I give my horse?
Dosage is based on body weight. A pony under 500 pounds gets 1 teaspoon daily, smaller horses under 900 pounds get 2 teaspoons daily, and horses over 900 pounds get 1 tablespoon daily. The fish oil is made with peppermint oil for added flavor.
What is SeaPet Super Joint Formula Powder and what's in it?
Super Joint Formula is an easy-to-use powder that combines MSM, glucosamine, and shark cartilage in one serving. Each serving contains 10,000 mg of MSM, approximately 5,000 mg of shark cartilage, and an additional 2,500 mg of glucosamine sulfate (on top of the glucosamine naturally occurring in shark cartilage), in a base of organic oat bran. MSM and glucosamine have been found to be much more effective when given jointly.
How much Super Joint Formula should I feed, and how soon will I see results?
A 1,000-pound horse gets 1/4 cup, modified as needed for smaller or larger horses. Results are normally seen in 2 to 3 weeks when using the loading-dose amounts. Each 1/4-cup serving delivers the full 10,000 mg MSM, 5,000 mg shark cartilage, and 2,500 mg added glucosamine sulfate.
Can I save money with an auto-ship program?
Yes. A 16 oz bottle of Fish Oil is $14.00 at the regular price, or $10.99 every 3 months on the Quarterly Autoship program. A 2.5 pound jar of Super Joint Formula is $58.00 regularly, or $46 every 3 months on autoship. Larger sizes are available.
