Bone, Gastric, and Hindgut Support in One

Read the research on new Triacton from Kentucky Equine Research Triacton™ is a triple-action supplement designed to improve bone density and support digestive health in horses. Triacton contains a novel source of calcium, shown to be more highly digestible than other forms of the mineral, as well as an array of other bone-building nutrients, including magnesium, boron, silicone, iodine, zinc, and manganese, as well as vitamins A, C, D, and K, which are important for bone health. Studies conducted at Kentucky Equine Research demonstrated an increase in bone density among Thoroughbreds in race training. Horses receiving 120 grams of Triacton per day for 90 days had a threefold greater increase in dorsal (shin) cortical bone density compared to the horses that received a placebo. Triacton’s source of calcium provides greater buffering capacity than limestone to effectively suppress acidity throughout the digestive tract. Laboratory studies at KER have shown that when Triacton is added to feed it increases buffering capacity twofold in acidic conditions typically seen in the stomach. BMC, the calcium source in Triacton, also improves hindgut buffering capacity by 54%. Triacton supports health in three research-proven ways: increasing bone density for skeletal strength, buffering stomach acid to bolster gastric health and reduce the incidence of ulcers, and moderating the pH of the hindgut to prevent acidosis. Triple-action Triacton is a pelleted, palatable supplement designed to be fed twice a day. Kentucky Equine Resneadrch • www.ker.com
