A Liquid Nu-Image® Coat Conditioner

Select Opti-Coat™ is a nutritional equine supplement that includes high concentrations of fatty acids, biotin, selenium, and Vitamin E in a highly palatable liquid form. It provides key nutrients for the growth of healthy, lustrous hair, mane and tail. The sebum stimulates the skin oils, where each hair is coated and causing them to lie flat and giving them shine and luster. Sufficient sebum is necessary to help and to lubricate the skin, forming an oily protective barrier, which also inhibits the growth of harmful microorganisms. The stimulation of sebum can be done by brushing, but most importantly by the addition of the key nutrients in the horses diet.

What are fatty acids and how do they help my horse?

Feeding high levels of fat; particularly those high in unsaturated fatty acids such as linoleic, linolenic acid, and oleic acid are widely held to increase the amount of skin oil or sebum and thus give the hair coat a glossier, shinier appearance. Frequent shampooing, accumulation of dirt and other debris, and illness can rob the skin sebum. Opti-Coat™ contains optimum levels of concentrated fatty acids.

Biotin can help coats too!

Biotin deficiencies can cause scruffy skin and scaly non-itching skin inflammation. A scaly greasy skin inflammation, which in advanced cases, may affect the lips, neck, thorax, abdomen, and extremities, may occur. Hair loss, beginning on the face, may also occur. The dietary requirements for biotin is believed to be a minimum of .05 mg per day.

Selenium and Vitamin E

Selenium and Vitamin E function jointly in protecting body tissue and hair quality. Deficiencies may show a rough or shaggy hair coat and in later stages “White Muscle Disease.” Minimum daily requirements for selenium are 1 mg and 400 lU of Vitamin E for most horses.

The Bottom Line

There is no faster way to put a show quality coat, mane, and tail on your horse! “Select the Best, Opti-Coat™.”
