<description>Yeast Culture Engineered For The Horse<br /><br />We continue to define the use of yeast culture in equine diets by studying the unique digestive system of the horse. This research has fueled developments in nutrition with engineered yeast products that enhance the digestion, offset certain digestive upsets and help to improve the horse’s overall health.</description>

<description>The Battle For The Belly<br /><br />There is a battle being waged in the belly of your horse. It is a battle between good and evil. The good guys are called lactobacillus and the bad- guys are called E. coli. If the good guys win the fight, your horse enjoys sound nutritional health. If the bad guys win, your horse will be prone to intestinal upset. In other words, the stakes of this battle raging inside your horse is quite high.</description>

<description>Mineral Proteinates<br /><br />So, just what are Mineral Proteinates? Mineral Proteinates are minerals bound to small proteins (peptides) or amino acids - a type of chelated mineral - commonly referred to as Mineral Proteinates. When Zinc or Copper are bound to proteins to form Zinc Proteinate or Copper Proteinate, they take on the biochemical characteristics of the particular peptide to which they are bound. Since peptides are readily absorbed into the horse’s body during digestion, this characteristic makes mineral proteinates more available to the horse than typical inorganic mineral sources.</description>

<description>Bioavailability<br /><br />"We are not what we eat, rather, we are what our tissues utilize," says Dr. John Lowe. To demonstrate what Dr. Lowe means, if I were to feed a rusty nail to my horse, that contained 160 parts per million (ppm) of iron oxide (rust) his intestinal track would only absorb 4.5 ppm of the iron oxide. The remaining 155.5 ppm of iron oxide would pass through the system unutilized. Bioavailability then is the difference between what is fed and what is available for utilization by the body. This is the reason that you will find the words "It makes a world of difference" on every bucket of dac. The Direct Action Company has endeavored to improve the bioavailability of it's dac line of animal vitamins and minerals by using mineral proteinates, yeast culture and live lactobacillus. Be sure to include dac in your feeding program because your horse is not the hay and oats he eats, but what the body is able to absorb from the hay and oats.</description>
