KER Triacton

Bone and Digestive Health Support

Triacton is a research-proven triple-action supplement designed to improve bone density and support digestive health in horses. Research has shown a correlation between a loss of bone density and shin soreness in horses.
Triacton is a pelleted supplement containing an array of highly bioavailable minerals and vitamins essential for sound skeletal development and maintenance as well as optimal function of the gastrointestinal tract.

Why use Triacton?

Triacton includes KER BMC which has three research-proven benefits improved gastric health and hindgut health and improved bone density
Research has shown that when Triacton is added to feed it increases buffering capacity 2X in acidic conditions typically seen in the stomach
Studies conducted at Kentucky Equine Research have demonstrated 3X increase in bone density and 2X increase in bone thickness in racehorses
Studies at Kentucky Equine Research demonstrated an increase in bone density in weanlings fed Triacton during winter when bone density usually decreases
Research proven to improve hindgut buffering capacity by 54 percent
Omeprazole use reduces calcium digestibility. KER BMC has been shown to rapidly release calcium at high stomach pH found with omeprazole use and supplies more calcium when needs are higher
Supports the beneficial microbial population of the caecum and colon by minimising hindgut acidosis HGA
Contains other bone-building nutrients such as magnesium boron silicon iodine with organic copper zinc and manganese as well as vitamins A C D and K
Includes yeast for further hindgut support and improved fibre digestion
