Stamox Horse 400g – Improved endurance in horses

StamoxVet beet concentrate for racehorses

Stamox Beetroot Concentrate is becoming increasingly popular with athletes, including StamoxVet for racehorses, due to its potential to boost performance and improve overall health. The main ingredients in StamoxVet beet concentrate that contribute to these benefits are the high nitrate content, betaine and several bioactive compounds with antioxidant properties and other beneficial effects. When consumed, “dietary nitrates” (nitrates bound to nutrients) are converted in the body into nitric oxide (NO), which plays a crucial role in various physiological processes.

Advantages of StamoxVet for racehorses

1. improved blood circulation and oxygen supply

• Nitric oxide production: Nitric oxide is a vasodilator, which means it helps to relax and dilate blood vessels. This can lead to improved blood flow and a more efficient supply of oxygen and nutrients to the muscles during exercise. For racehorses, a better oxygen supply can increase endurance and reduce fatigue.
• Improved muscle performance: The improved blood flow and oxygen supply can also make muscle contractions more efficient, allowing horses to maintain their speed and endurance over longer periods of time.

2. increased endurance and stamina

• Reduction of oxygen consumption: Scientific studies on human athletes have shown that Stamox beet concentrate can reduce oxygen consumption during submaximal exercise, which means that the muscles need less oxygen to do the same work. This can be particularly beneficial for racehorses, helping them to sustain high-intensity training over longer periods of time.
• Delaying fatigue: By improving the efficiency of energy production in the muscles, StamoxVet Beetroot Concentrate can help delay fatigue, allowing horses to maintain peak performance throughout the race.

3. improved recovery

• Reduction of inflammation: StamoxVet Beetroot Concentrate is rich in antioxidants that can help reduce inflammation and oxidative stress in muscles after intense exercise. This can promote faster recovery and reduce the risk of injury or overtraining in racehorses.
• Faster muscle repair: The improved blood flow provided by nitric oxide also supports faster delivery of nutrients needed for muscle repair, including the removal of lactic acid, resulting in shorter recovery times after training and racing.

4. general health benefits

• Supporting the immune system: The antioxidants in StamoxVet Beetroot Concentrate can support the immune system and protect racehorses from infections and diseases that could impair their performance.
• Digestive health: StamoxVet Beetroot Concentrate contains several compounds that can promote healthy digestion, which is important to maintain the overall health and well-being of horses.

Scientific foundations

• Human studies: Research on human athletes has shown that supplementing with beet juice can improve time trial performance, reduce oxygen consumption during exercise and prolong fatigue time. For example, a study published in the Journal of Applied Physiology found that beet juice improved the performance of endurance athletes by increasing the efficiency of mitochondrial ATP production (the cell’s energy currency).
• Studies in horses: While specific research on StamoxVet Beetroot Concentrate in racehorses is limited, studies on nitrate supplementation in animals suggest similar benefits. For example, research on equine exercise physiology has shown that dietary nitrates can improve cardiovascular function and muscle oxygenation, potentially leading to improved performance in endurance activities.
• Nitric oxide and muscle function: The role of nitric oxide in vasodilation and muscle oxygenation is well documented in the scientific literature, providing a strong theoretical basis for the use of StamoxVet to improve athletic performance, including in racehorses.

Practical considerations

• Dosage: The optimal dosage for horses is still being studied, but it is generally recommended to start with a small amount and monitor the horse’s response. A 500 kg horse might need between 20 and 100 grams administered 3 hours before a race.
• Timing: To maximize performance gains, beet juice should be administered a few hours before training to allow sufficient time for the conversion of nitrates into nitric oxide.
• Monitoring: As with any supplement, it is important to monitor the horse for possible side effects and consult a veterinarian to ensure that the dosage and administration are appropriate for the individual horse.
• Considerations: Nitrate is an active compound in StamoxVet, but excessive intake can lead to acute toxicity. Therefore, administration of more than 200 grams is not recommended. Acute toxicity is unlikely unless a horse ingests 1000 grams or more. However, if other feed or drinking water also contains significant amounts of nitrate, 1000 grams (1 kg) of StamoxVet powder could be too much. Using a maximum of 200 grams is considered a safe but high dose.

Conclusion

StamoxVet Beetroot Concentrate offers a range of potential benefits for racehorses, from improved oxygenation and endurance to better recovery and general health. Although further research is required to fully understand the effects in sport horses, the scientific evidence from human studies and related animal studies supports its use as a natural performance enhancer.
