Naturally Occurring Minerals & Trace Elements

Seaweed naturally accumulates minerals and trace elements from its marine environment, making seaweed meal a useful supplementary ingredient in animal nutrition.

Depending on its source and composition, seaweed meal can provide a range of naturally occurring nutrients that complement the animal's overall diet.

As the exact nutrient profile of natural seaweed products can vary, Seaweed Meal is best incorporated into a feeding program with consideration given to the complete ration rather than used as a replacement for a balanced vitamin and mineral supplement.

Natural Source of Iodine

Seaweed Meal is naturally rich in iodine, an essential trace mineral required for normal thyroid hormone production.

Thyroid hormones play important roles in regulating:

• Normal metabolism
• Energy utilisation
• Growth and development
• Normal physiological function

While iodine is essential, more is not necessarily better. Both inadequate and excessive iodine intake can interfere with normal thyroid function.

Suitable for Horses & Livestock

Seaweed Meal can be incorporated into the diets of:

Horses • Cattle • Sheep • Goats • Other Livestock

The appropriate feeding amount will depend on the animal's species, bodyweight, existing diet and total iodine and mineral intake.

Australian Made

Seaweed Meal is an Australian-made product, providing a locally produced option for owners looking to incorporate a natural seaweed-based supplement into their feeding program.

Bulk packaging also provides an economical option for larger properties, studs, farms and multi-animal households.

More Than an Animal Supplement

In addition to animal nutrition, Seaweed Meal can also be used as a natural soil conditioner.

When incorporated appropriately into garden or agricultural soils, seaweed-derived products can contribute organic material and naturally occurring minerals.

Storage

For maximum product quality:

• Keep the container tightly sealed
• Store in a cool, dry location
• Protect from excessive moisture and humidity
• Keep away from contaminants
• Follow the storage instructions provided on the packaging

Important – Iodine Intake

Because Seaweed Meal can contain significant concentrations of naturally occurring iodine, care should be taken when feeding it alongside other iodine-containing supplements, mineral mixes or fortified feeds.

Avoid excessive supplementation.

Before feeding, consider all sources of iodine within the animal's diet, including:

• Fortified feeds
• Vitamin and mineral supplements
• Salt and mineral blocks
• Kelp or other seaweed products
• Iodine-containing additives

Animals with known or suspected thyroid disorders should only receive iodine-rich supplements under veterinary guidance.

For horses, livestock or breeding animals receiving multiple fortified feeds or supplements, consultation with a veterinarian or qualified animal nutritionist is recommended to ensure the complete diet provides an appropriate mineral balance.

Important Information

Seaweed Meal is a supplementary feed ingredient and should not be relied upon as the sole source of vitamins and minerals unless the complete ration has been professionally formulated to account for its nutrient composition.

Natural products can vary in their mineral concentrations. Always follow the manufacturer's current feeding recommendations and avoid exceeding the recommended amount.

If precise mineral supplementation is required, particularly for iodine, the product's current nutritional analysis should be considered when balancing the total diet.
