Alpamin - 20kg bag
The natural habitat of alpacas and llamas is the high
plains of South America. These plateaus are sunny, have varied vegetation and
mineral-rich soils, so the climate and environment are quite different than on
the European continent. To help keep the animals in optimum health on this side
of the world, alpaca veterinarian Thijs Flahou developed a combination of
vitamins and minerals to simulate the positive natural effects. Alpamin
consists of tasty pellets that can win over any animal!
Only the very best ingredients and most modern technologies
are used to produce Alpamin. We combine, for example, different forms of the
same mineral in order to significantly increase intestinal absorption.
Why is Alpamin a must?
Alpamin is not intended to provide energy or proteins. In
other words, it is not a concentrate, but a well-balanced vitamin and mineral
supplement that keeps animals in optimum health. If this supplement is not
used, the deficiencies can lead to health problems in both the short and long
term, such as weak bones, fertility problems, weak crias, cria death, skin
problems and overall lower immune function. Make no mistake, this supplement is
necessary for every llama and alpaca, not only crias or pregnant and lactating
dams! For adult alpacas and llamas, a daily dose of Alpamin is sufficient to
never have to administer vitamin and mineral injections.
The advantages of Alpamin
Healthy
& strong bones thanks to Vitamin D
Alpamin contains a coated,
heat-resistant form of vitamin D. This variant is highly stable and remains
biologically available for absorption through the intestinal wall.
High zinc
content for healthy fleece & skin
We use three different types
of zinc, each of which is absorbed by the intestines in a different way.
