Unlike processed powders and pellets, which often rely on chemical binding agents and heat processing that can degrade nutrient quality, whole food ingredients maintain their natural nutrient profiles and enzymatic activity. This not only supports a horse’s nutritional needs more effectively, but also aligns more closely with how horses are biologically designed to digest and absorb nutrients. https://www.equineelixirs.com/crackdown Whole food ingredients are substantially healthier and more effective than their powdered and pelleted counterparts that contain synthetic vitamins and nutrients, fillers, preservatives, and artificial flavors. Not only do whole food ingredients have a taste and texture horses prefer, but they are higher in fiber, which benefits the gut microbiome and motility, and are more bioavailable, making them easier for horses to absorb. "Horses on Crackdown grow hoof like I’ve never seen before. I work on difficult cases with metabolic and pre-metabolic horses, and I’m always careful about what I recommend feeding them. What I like most about Crackdown is that it’s a supplement that really works and it’s safe to feed to horses who have to be on a low sugar and starch diet." - James Gilchrist, Official Olympic and World Equestrian Games Farrier More about Crackdown: What are the ingredients in Crackdown? Crackdown contains a proprietary blend of quinoa, pumpkin seed, sesame seed, almonds, chickpeas, lentils, oats, kale, spinach, and brazil nuts. Is Crackdown show safe? Yes! All of our products are show safe. How quickly will I see a difference? Usually within the first shoeing cycle. Hoof growth is notoriously slow, but Crackdown will start increasing the rate and quality of growth within the first 3-4 weeks. Would Crackdown replace my horse's biotin supplement? Yes! The research shows that biotin is actually not that important for hoof health, but rather, sulfur and essential amino acids like arginine and methionine. Horses make biotin in their hind gut and almost always have enough for daily requirements. This is why Crackdown was formulated to be high in sulfur containing compounds to strengthen the protein bonds in the feet and increase circulation and growth. While Crackdown does contain some biotin, it is a much more comprehensive supplement because of the methionine and arginine which are the key nutrients for increasing the rate and quality of hoof growth as well as strength. Can I use this in conjunction with the other Equine Elixirs products I use, or is it duplicative? All of our products are designed to be used together. There are no redundancy or toxicity issues when using any or all of our products. Is Crackdown safe for metabolic horses? Yes! The NSC content of Crackdown is under 8%. One of the reasons why veterinarians and farriers recommend Crackdown for metabolic horses is because of its low sugar and startch content. Metabolic horses and ponies have all done extremely well with the Crackdown. More about Crackdown: https://www.equineelixirs.com/crackdown
