Lactatec

The power of nature

Cavalor® LactaTec is based on Cavalor® Muscle Fit. For improved muscle support, essential oils such as Petroselinum sativum and Citrus aurantifolium have been added. The active components of Citrus aurantifolium are strong antioxidants, preventing the formation of harmful free radicals. It also acts as a muscle relaxant. Petroselinum sativum contributes to effective muscle recovery after strenuous exercise. It has a purifying effect, removing toxins from the body more rapidly and allowing for effortless transport of oxygen to the muscles, delaying muscle fatigue.

Muscle cell support for supple, healthy muscle activity

Cavalor® LactaTec contains minerals such as sulphur (S), magnesium (Mg) and manganese (Mn) that reduce muscle tension and promote flexibility and stamina of the muscles. These minerals have been formulated for easy absorption by the horse to ensure optimal effectiveness. One example is methylsulfonylmethane (MSM). Although MSM is best known for its beneficial effects on the joints, it also contributes to proper muscle function. MSM relaxes the muscles, acts as an antioxidant and also stimulates blood circulation. In this way, MSM promotes the body’s decomposition and excretion of waste products. In addition, a complex of B vitamins including vitamin B1, B2 and B12 improves the horse’s carbohydrate metabolism, neural transmission and the oxygen supply to the muscles.

Highly potent antioxidant mix for maximum protection

Cavalor® LactaTec contains a very powerful combination of antioxidants, providing a proven and extremely strong defence against free radicals at relatively low ingredient dosages. Besides vitamin E and selenium, the standard antioxidants present in most muscle supplements found on the market, Cavalor® LactaTec also contains vitamin C, beta-carotene and bioflavonoids. In addition, Cavalor® LactaTec also contains whey proteins, precursor to glutathione, which is known to be one of the most powerful antioxidants at a cellular level, but is poorly absorbed through the feed.

This combination of ingredients greatly increases the production of glutathione in the body and triggers multiple processes for both intracellular and extracellular protection of the muscle cells.

Efficient muscle repair prevents acidification and muscle damage

Cavalor® LactaTec contains betaine, precursor to dimethylglycine, which primarily ensures efficient oxygen transport to the muscles, reducing lactate production and storage. Zinc, included in a chelated form, accelerates lactate breakdown, while sodium bicarbonate and sodium tripolyphosphate act as buffers, contributing further to effective muscle recovery. By neutralising lactate and restoring the acid-base balance, it helps prevent muscle acidification and stiffness.

The amino acids glycine, L- cysteine, glutamine, lysine and methionine included in Cavalor® LactaTec function as building blocks for the proteins from which the muscle cells are constructed.

Mix 30 g with the feed per day. In case of severe acidification, we recommend a course of 4 weeks, followed by 2 days before, during and 1 day after competition or heavy exertion. 

1 measuring scoop = 15 g. Maximum 45 g per horse per day.

Cavalor® LactaTec is also available in paste form as Cavalor® LactaTec Paste.

The paste is rapidly absorbed and handy for occasional use such as for competitions or more intensive training. In these cases, give 1/2 syringe the night before and 1/2 syringe on the morning of the event. 

An additional dose of LactaTec Paste immediately following the exercise will significantly enhance recovery.
