Nutrient imbalance, micronutrient and mineral deficiencies and metabolic disorders are often rooted in inadequate natural forage, feed processing and ‘fashion’ trends in equine and pet feed formulation. Domestic animals suffer the same kind of chronic and degenerative conditions as humans including loss of energy, diabetes and heart disease. Like human Seagreens®, these easily digested granules help balance the animal’s metabolism, strengthen immunity, restore equilibrium and vitality and support the mineral balance in performance. | Owners often notice a better coat and temperament; internally the granules enhance the value and absorption of other feed nutrients and are a sound basis of preventive and curative healthcare. 200g lasts a large dog 2 months, a large working horse 20 days and a dietary inclusion table on the jar covers most domestic animals. An unsolicited tale "Since December 2009 I started giving my little Norwich Terrier, Freddie, the Pet Granules (Seagreens® Ascophylum Granules). I bought him as a 7 month puppy from a reputable breeder, but unfortunately at a year old he showed symptons of demodectic mange. January 2009 I took him to the University of Cambridge Queen's Veterinary Hospital where they confirmed his condition and told me that puppies get this from suckling from their mother who carries the condition. After putting him through 3 lots of complete shaves to enable the vets to treat his skin it was not until September 2009 that the vets eventually considered the mites were dead. At that time I was not aware of the Pet Granules, although I am a long term advocate of Seagreens for myself. I had tried everything for his immune system, even importing powders from the USA. In December 2009 I was ready to order some capsules for myself and noticed a leaflet in my file with the article on Pet Granules, and knew that I should try them for Freddie. The results in the last 3 months have been phenomenal! He is bright eyed, lively, and eating well. I am convinced his immune system has improved since taking the Granules, and congratulate you for producing them. I have recommended them to my local vet" - Maggie Perkins, Peterborough, March 2010. | Daily feed inclusion table Ponies & cobs up to 15 hands: 1 heaped teaspoon (5 grams) Horses & hard working cobs over 15 hands: 2 heaped teaspoons (10 grams) Brood mares: double the inclusion up to a maximum of 2 heaped teaspoons, returning to the normal inclusion 2 months after birth Foals: Half a teaspoon in solid feed, gradually increasing to a teaspoon for yearlings Dogs & cats: A quarter to half teaspoon mixed into food Nutritional profile Seagreens® Pet Granules Table 1: Typical nutritional profile 1g • Protein 75mg • Carbohydrate / fibre 700mg (of which the non-starch polysaccharides Algin 230mg, Fucose and Fucoidan 90mg, Mannitol 65mg, Methylpentosans, Laminarin 40mg, Mannuronic acid 270mg) and essential fatty acids EFAs • Vitamins A (antioxidant carotenoids beta carotene, and fucoxanthin, violaxanthin and chlorophyll) 178µg, B group (including B12 Cyanocobalamin 0.004µg, Bc Folic and Folinic acid 0.6µg, B1 Thiamine 0.3µg, B2 Riboflavin 7.5µg, Niacin (anti-pellagra) 20µg, Pantothenic acid, B6 Pyridoxin, Choline) 8.9µg, C (antioxidant) 1.25mg, D (Cholecalciferol) 0.01µg, E (antioxidant) including the complete set of isomers 0.23mg, H (Biotin) 0.30µg and K (Menadione) 10µg • Minerals Calcium 20mg, Chlorine 35mg, Magnesium 7mg, Nitrogen 10.5mg, Phosphorus 1.5mg, Potassium 25mg, Sodium 35mg, Sulphur 30mg • Trace elements including Antimony trace, Boron 0.06mg, Cobalt 5.4µg, Copper trace, Fluorine 0.2mg, Germanium trace, Gold trace, Iodine 700µg, Iridium trace, Iron 575µg, Lithium trace, Manganese 0.03mg, Molybdenum 0.65µg, Platinum trace, Rubidium trace, Selenium 0.15µg, Silicon 1mg, Silver trace, Tellurium trace, Titanium trace, Vanadium 2.3µg and Zinc 0.13mg • Amino acids Histidine trace, Isoleucine 0.53mg, Leucine 5.3mg, Lysine 2.78mg, Methionine 0.68mg, Phenylalanine 0.83mg, Threonine 2.33mg, Tryptophan trace, Valine 2.63mg, Alanine 4.57mg, Arginine 11.17mg, Aspartic acid 4.88mg, Cysteine 0.90mg, Glutamic acid 5.18mg, Glycine 3.90mg, Proline 3mg, Serine 2.25mg, Tyrosine 1.05mg • Betaines Glycine Betaine trace, Gamma Amino Butyric Acid Betaine trace, Delta Amino Valeric Acid Betaine trace, TML (Laminine) trace, L-Carnitine trace, Trigonelline trace; enzymes and valuable compounds which cannot be artificially formulated such as the phenolic compounds including free phloroglucinol, fucophorethols, and phlorotannin derivatives 1g = 1000mg = 1000000µg
