Eclipse Biofarmab BioMagnesium contains magnesium with high bioavailability in a unique combination of easily absorbable magnesium oxide, magnesium phosphate and magnesium chelate. The mineral is chelated, i.e. protein-bound, which is especially important for rapid biological absorption. Magnesium is one of the body's most important minerals, it is needed for the function of many enzymes and is important for maintaining good muscle and nerve function, as well as for the heart and blood vessels. Approximately 60% of the body's magnesium is found in the skeleton and is important for Skeletal development. Magnesium interacts with calcium and phosphorus. The daily loss of magnesium via faeces and urine is about 6 mg/kg body weight, which must be covered by the maintenance feed. However, magnesium cannot be stored in the body and must therefore be supplied continuously through the feed. It has been shown that both humans and horses often suffer from magnesium deficiency. One of the possible deficiency symptoms in horses is nervousness, i.e. skittishness and tension. In case of magnesium deficiency, the body cannot handle the substances that are released during stress or fear, and this becomes clear through an increased tendency to react to events in the environment. The growing prevalence of magnesium deficiency observed today is primarily attributed to soil depletion, but an imbalance in the feed ratio of calcium to magnesium is another possible contributing factor. The ratio should be 5:2 between calcium and magnesium. 400g
