Lysine, Methionine & Threonine are known as rate-limiting amino acids. They are required in the horse\u2019s diet because they cannot be made in the body. Of the 21 amino acids that exist, these three are most commonly deficient in the horse\u2019s diet.<\/p>\n
Amino acids are the molecular building blocks of proteins. Proteins have many functions in the body; they form structural components of cells, act as hormones and act as enzymes that carry out metabolic processes.<\/p>\n
Horses that have inadequate protein or amino acid intake might experience:
\n\u2022\tPoor hoof and coat quality
\n\u2022\tPersistent fatigue
\n\u2022\tSlow recovery from illness
\n\u2022\tLoss of muscle mass<\/p>\n
When an essential amino acid is deficient to the point of limiting protein synthesis, it is called a \u201climiting\u201d amino acid. Lysine, Threonine, & Methionine are typically considered the first, second, and third limiting amino acids in equine diets.<\/p>\n
L-LYSINE<\/p>\n
Lysine maintains healthy skin and joints in horses by forming strong collagen bonds, supports protein synthesis and efficient energy production in horses.
\n\u2022\tSupports muscle maintenance and post-exercise care
\n\u2022\tContributes to joint function in exercising and aging horses
\n\u2022\tHelps maintain normal immune function and energy metabolism
\n\u2022\tImportant for calcium absorption and bone health<\/p>\n
L-METHIONINE<\/p>\n
Methionine is important for maintaining healthy hooves, tendons and ligaments, and supporting coat quality. Growing horses and heavily exercised horses have a high demand for methionine and benefit from supplementation.
\n\u2022\tEssential for keratin formation and healthy hoof growth
\n\u2022\tHelps maintain healthy connective tissue and cartilage
\n\u2022\tRequired for the production of glutathione \u2013 a key antioxidant
\n\u2022\tSupports post-exercise care and resistance to illness and stress<\/p>\n
L-THREONINE<\/p>\n
Threonine supports gut health, immune function, and protein synthesis in horses. Threonine is beneficial for growing horses, performance horses and those requiring additional gut support.
\n\u2022\tAids in mucin production to support a healthy gut lining
\n\u2022\tMaintains nutrient absorption and feed efficiency
\n\u2022\tContributes to muscle growth and maintenance
\n\u2022\tInvolved in collagen and elastin production<\/p>\n
