Why is the Calcium:Phosphorus ratio of Platinum Performance Equine not 2:1?
Platinum Performance Equine is designed to fill the nutrient gaps that commonly exist in the equine diet by providing a source of essential fatty acids, antioxidants, essential amino acids, vitamins and trace minerals. Calcium and Phosphorus are macro-minerals, which are supplied predominantly by the forage, or feed the horse ingests. Platinum Performance is a very nutrient dense supplement. When fed as recommended Platinum accounts for approximately 1.5% of the total weight of the average daily feed intake of the horse. Therefore, the Calcium:Phosphorus ratio of Platinum Performance has a relatively insignificant effect on the total Calcium: Phosphorus Ratio of the horses diet. If the overall Calcium: Phosphorus ratio of your horses feed and forage is suboptimal, we recommend discussing this with your veterinarian.
