Hoof Food

Hoof Food is a hoof growth promoter for horses. Hoof Food aids in the prevention and treatment of cracked wall, contracted heels, thin soles, bruised soles, seedy toe, shallow heels, split frogs, laminitis and shelly feet.

Hoof growth and regeneration is very much an “inside-outside” process. Painting something onto the outside of the hoof won’t cause regeneration, the hoof must receive nutrients from the blood stream in order to stimulate growth and repair. Your answer is daily supplementation with Ranvet Hoof Food.

The coronary band is the primary source of growth and nutrition for the hoof wall. Ranvet Hoof Food provides high levels of Biotin together with other essential pre-Keratins which are needed to promote hoof growth and repair. Biotin has been proved to stimulate horn production, and to lay it down at a faster rate, not only in the coronary band but also in the laminate, thus improving the strength and integrity of the periople, hoof wall, sole, frog and white line junction.

Directions and Dosage Rates: Treatment – 30g daily, mixed through the feed. Routine Prevention: 15g daily, mixed through the feed. Pregnant Mares: 60g daily, during the last quarter of gestation. A measure is provided. One level measure holds 30g of HOOF FOOD added to a dry feed.

Overall improvement in hoof horn growth and strength generally occurs within 3 to 5 months. In cases of severe hoof damage, and with very large horses supplementation should continue for 9 to 12 months, or longer.
