Chelated Calcium – Targeted Support for Horses on Oxalate-Rich Pasture

Restore Calcium Balance • Support Muscle & Bone Health • Backed by Science


High oxalate grasses bind calcium in the gut.
That means your horse may not be absorbing enough — even if you're feeding a calcium supplement.

Chelated Calcium is different.
It's a highly bioavailable form of calcium that's bound to amino acids for superior absorption. Unlike traditional limestone or dolomite, it bypasses gut-binding issues and delivers usable calcium straight to the bloodstream — right where your horse needs it.


🐴 Perfect For:

  • Horses grazing on setaria, kikuyu, panic, buffel, Rhodes,or pigweed or low calcium availability in pasture 

  • Animals showing signs of calcium imbalance (stiffness, poor hoof growth, anxiety, loss of condition)

  • Support during pregnancy, lactation, or periods of high demand


🌱 Why Chelated Calcium?

✔️ Bypasses oxalate binding – chelated for maximum uptake
✔️ Supports bones, hooves, nerves & muscles
✔️ Helps prevent 'Bighead' & nutritional secondary hyperparathyroidism (NSH)
✔️ Fast-acting support for horses in training, breeding, or recovery
✔️ High bioavailability – less wasted, more effective
✔️ Safe to use alongside mineral programs, loose licks or herbal blends

🧠 Did You Know?

Even if you're feeding calcium, up to 80% of it may be bound and lost in horses on high-oxalate grasses.
Chelated forms are absorbed 2–4x more efficiently than traditional inorganic sources.
