Role of Silicon in Bone Health
Silicon stimulates bone formation and is a key element in the structure of substances such as Hyaluronic Acid, which cushions and lubricates joints to protect them from compressive forces. In a study of Standardbred race horses supplemented with zeolite (a form of silicon), it was proven that the supplemented horses had faster middle-distance run times, ran nearly twice as far before injury occurred, and had fewer injuries than horses that were not supplemented. The authors of the study concluded that silicon supplements may allow horses to train at faster speeds for longer periods of time without incurring injury.

Science Behind the Supplements
Bones and Connective Tissues
You don't have to look very far before you find an active horse that has experienced a cartilage or suspensory issue of some kind. Given this nature, it is important that we provide vitamins and trace minerals that are beneficial to our horses' Bones and Connective Tissues. Especially with young, growing horses that are susceptible to a host of growth related issues, as well as performance horses in high intensity training. A variety of supplement ingredients can aid in maintaining bone health including Silicon, Omega-3 fatty acids, and Vitamins and Minerals.
Is the amount of Silicon in Platinum Performance® sufficient
or does my horse need more than that?
Platinum Performance® Equine Wellness formula contains an adequate amount of silicon for most horses. If your horse is in high intensity training such as racing, you may want to consider adding Osteon to his regimen to protect his bones and connective tissues. Talk to a Platinum Advisor to find the best supplement solution for your particular horse.

What Clients are Saying
"I am using Osteon for a 3 year old that had bucked shins (no fractures) from training. Dr. Martha Rodgers and Dr. Larry Bramledge recommend your product. Eight weeks have passed and my filly is to go back in traning! We will start the 2 year old on this 2 months before she begins training."
