Hoof Strength

Biotin supports the nutritional metabolism of skin, coat, and horn. It is involved in the formation of keratin – an important structural protein found in skin, hair, and hooves. An adequate biotin intake contributes to a balanced nutrient supply for coat condition and horn quality.

Diatomaceous earth is a natural source of silicon – a trace element that is present throughout the body as part of connective tissue. Silicon occurs in skin, hair, hooves, cartilage, and ligaments and is associated with the structural integrity of these tissues. A needs-based intake of silicon can be beneficial from a nutritional standpoint, especially during coat change or in horses with heavily stressed hooves.

Selenium is an essential trace element involved in various physiological processes, particularly in cellular metabolism as well as muscle and immune function. It contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative influences and can be a meaningful nutritional addition during periods of increased physical demand.

Folic acid (Vitamin B9) is an essential B vitamin that horses cannot produce themselves and must therefore obtain through their diet. It is involved in various physiological processes – including cellular metabolism and the maintenance of normal skin, coat, and mane function.

Zinc is an important trace element involved in normal cellular metabolism. It contributes to the maintenance of healthy skin, coat, and hooves and supports a well-groomed appearance.

DL-Methionine is an essential amino acid involved in the formation of keratin – a structural protein naturally found in skin, hair, and hooves. An adequate methionine intake can contribute to the nutritional support of coat and hoof quality, especially during coat change, growth, or periods of high physical demand.

Vitamin B1 is a water-soluble B vitamin naturally present in grains, yeast, and plant-based ingredients. It plays a role in normal energy metabolism and can support the nutritional maintenance of skin, coat, and hooves. An adapted supply may be beneficial during times of increased demand.

Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin) is a water-soluble B vitamin found in herbs, cereals, and yeast. It is involved in normal cellular metabolism and participates in physiological processes related to skin and hoof metabolism. A balanced intake may contribute to the maintenance of healthy skin and hoof structures.

Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) is an essential B vitamin naturally present in plant-based feed materials, yeast, and cereals. It is involved in numerous enzymatic processes and contributes to normal energy metabolism. Niacinamide supports physiological functions of the skin, muscles, digestion, and nervous system.

Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine) is a water-soluble B vitamin found in yeast, cereals, and plant-based feed sources. It is involved in the metabolism of amino acids and fatty acids and contributes to the physiological function of the skin and liver.

Vitamin B12 (Cobalamin) is an essential B vitamin primarily found in animal-derived feed ingredients such as fermented products or brewer’s yeast. It is involved in normal energy metabolism and plays a role in physiological processes related to blood formation, cell function, and the nervous system. A demand-oriented supply may be beneficial during periods of high physical exertion or in older horses.

Calcium is a macro mineral involved in various physiological processes in the body – including energy metabolism, as well as the function of cell membranes and the nervous system. A demand-oriented calcium supply contributes to the maintenance of normal body functions.

Copper is an essential trace element involved in multiple physiological processes – including connective tissue, the nervous system, and blood formation. It contributes to normal oxygen transport in the body and supports the protection of cells from oxidative stress. An adequate copper intake may be beneficial during periods of increased physical demand.

With normal feeding, one bottle will last approximately one month.

Feeding duration should be considered individually. For consistent support of your horse’s hoof quality, continuous use of Hufkraft Liquid can be a sensible addition to the daily ration. In specific cases – such as during summer when hooves may become particularly dry or brittle – it may also be used over shorter, targeted periods.

Yes, absolutely. Hoof Strength can be fed without concern even in cases of hoof cracks, brittle horn, or slow hoof growth – as part of a balanced feeding routine.

Thanks to its sugar- and starch-free formulation, Hoof Strength can also be integrated into feeding routines with special dietary requirements. If in doubt, it is recommended to consult the attending veterinarian.

All our products can be prepared in advance for feeding. We recommend a maximum preparation time of 24 hours.

Supplementary feed for horses
30 ml per day (600 kg body weight)

No worries – 97% of horses eat Hoof Strength without any problems when mixed with concentrate feed. You can also prepare it in mash. If your horse refuses to eat the product, our 30-day taste guarantee ensures you’ll get your money back.

Many horse owners report observing a difference within a few days, depending on the individual animal.

There are no restrictions for Hoof Strength. It can be used for all horses of all ages.

It is suitable for both. You can also include it in the ration during periods of dry or brittle hooves in summer, repeated loss of horseshoes, or while transitioning to barefoot.

Hoof Strength can be fed to pregnant mares.

Hoof Strength is show safe, meaning it is not doping-relevant.
