{"product_id":"ker-eo-3-oil","title":"KER ~ EO-3 Oil","description":"\u003cp\u003eHorses are often fed diets composed entirely of grain mixes and hay. Such diets are rich in omega-6 fatty acids but extremely low in omega-3 fatty acids. If vegetable oil is added to the ration, it further skews the ratio, with omega-6 fatty acids being overrepresented. To help counteract this imbalance, horses should be supplemented with omega-3 fatty acids, the richest sources of which are fish oils.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKentucky Equine Research developed EO-3™, a potent marine-derived oil that is rich in omega-3 fatty acids. EO-3 is a palatable oil that is top-dressed onto the feed. EO-3 contains the omega-3 fatty acids DHA and EPA. KER has shown EO-3 to be highly palatable when compared to other marine-derived oils.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEO-3 is intended to be fed to horses of all classes and working levels to improve the critical omega-3:omega-6 ratio in their diets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhy Choose EO-3?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHighly palatable flavored marine-derived oil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImproves glucose tolerance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStrengthens immune function\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncreases red blood cell flexibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBenefits of DHA- and EPA-mediated inflammatory response include reduction in joint inflammation, allergic reactivity, exercise-induced bronchoconstriction, and exercise-induced pulmonary hemorrhage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReproductive benefits include improved fertility, improved colostrum quality, enhanced passive transfer of antibodies to foals, and increased sperm concentration, motility, and viability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMarine-derived long-chain fatty acids DHA and EPA are more efficiently used as precursors of local hormones than plant-based sources of omega-3 fatty acids\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eACVIM consensus statement recommends DHA and EPA supplementation for horses with inflammatory airway disease\/equine asthma\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProvides an anti-inflammatory effect in horses with Equine Glandular Gastric Disease (EGGD) and Recurrent Exertional Rhabdomyolysis (RER), as inflammation is a key part of the disease process\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShown in studies to\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/ker.com\/published\/the-effect-of-long-chain-omega-3-supplementation-on-blood-serum-gamma-glutamyl-transferase-ggt-levels-and-inflammation-post-exercise-in-thoroughbred-racehorses\/\"\u003ereduce GGT and inflammatory markers in exercising horses\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFeeding Directions\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdd 30 mL per day to the feed of 500-kg horses and 15 mL per day for ponies.
