Megavite-B Paste – Concentrated B Vitamin & Amino Acid Supplement

A convenient, concentrated source of B vitamins and amino acids to support appetite, energy metabolism and recovery in performance horses.

Megavite-B Paste is a highly concentrated and palatable nutritional supplement providing a carefully selected combination of B-group vitamins and amino acids in an easy-to-administer oral paste.

Designed for horses undergoing hard training, travel, dietary stress or recovery, Megavite-B Paste provides targeted nutritional support when requirements may be increased or dietary intake is compromised.

B Vitamins for Energy & Recovery

B-group vitamins play important roles in numerous metabolic processes and are particularly important for the normal conversion and utilisation of nutrients for cellular energy production.

Performance horses undergoing strenuous exercise and training have increased metabolic demands, making appropriate nutrition an important part of their overall management and recovery program.

Megavite-B Paste provides a concentrated source of B vitamins to help support normal energy metabolism, appetite and general condition.

Supports Muscle Recovery

Hard exercise places significant demands on the horse's muscles and energy systems.

The combination of B vitamins and selected amino acids in Megavite-B Paste provides nutritional building blocks that support normal muscle metabolism and post-exercise recovery.

This makes it a useful addition to the nutritional program of horses undergoing regular strenuous training or competition.

Appetite & Nutritional Support

Travel, intensive training, environmental changes and recovery from illness can sometimes affect a horse's normal appetite.

Megavite-B Paste provides readily available B vitamins and amino acids to support normal metabolic processes and help maintain healthy appetite and feed intake.

For horses that are poor eaters, the concentrated paste format also allows targeted supplementation without relying on the horse consuming a full feed.

Methionine, Choline & Inositol

Megavite-B Paste includes Methionine, Choline and Inositol, nutrients involved in normal metabolic and liver-related processes.

Methionine is an essential amino acid involved in protein synthesis and numerous metabolic pathways.

Choline plays an important role in normal fat metabolism and cellular membrane function.

Inositol is involved in normal cellular signalling and lipid metabolism.

Together, these nutrients provide additional nutritional support for horses experiencing increased metabolic demands.

Helps Supplement Dietary B Vitamins

The B-vitamin content of a horse's diet can vary considerably according to the types and quality of forage and concentrates being fed.

Megavite-B Paste provides a concentrated supplementary source of B vitamins, making it particularly useful when additional nutritional support is desired during training, travel, recovery or periods of reduced feed intake.

Convenient Oral Paste

Megavite-B Paste provides an easy-to-administer oral alternative to injectable supplementation when oral nutritional supplementation is appropriate.

The paste format can be particularly convenient for horses that are difficult to supplement through feed and avoids injection-related considerations such as needle aversion, injection-site reactions and the need for sterile administration technique.

Ideal For

Racehorses • Performance Horses • Horses in Hard Training • Travelling Horses • Poor Eaters • High-Grain Diets • Post-Exercise Recovery • Appetite Support • Muscle Recovery • Horses Recovering from Illness or Injury

Important Information

Megavite-B Paste is a nutritional supplement and is not a substitute for veterinary treatment.

A persistent loss of appetite, unexplained weight loss, poor performance, prolonged fatigue or slow recovery from exercise may indicate an underlying health or nutritional problem and should be investigated by a veterinarian.

Horses recovering from significant illness or injury should continue to receive appropriate veterinary care. Nutritional supplementation may be used as part of their broader recovery program where appropriate.

Always administer according to the current manufacturer's directions and consider the horse's complete diet and any other vitamin or mineral supplements being provided.
