Therefore, an important nutritional goal is to counter insulin resistance as a risk factor for\u00a0laminitis. The successful nutritional formula of Glucocard was adopted for Glandogard for this purpose.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Vital nutrients against tissue destruction<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A major reason for age-related problems is now seen in cell damage caused by free oxygen radicals. In the\u00a0Equine Cushing&#8217;s Syndrome, these substance attacks take place particularly in the hormone regulating glandular tissue of the hypothalamus and the pituitary gland. Due to tissues damage to these glands, among other things, the hormonal balance between dopamine, adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), cortisol and insulin are out of control. This leads to the development of Cushing symptoms. The heart of this problem lies at the body&#8217;s own free radical defense system, consisting of enzymes and antioxidantes. Also a lack of antioxidant nutrients may play a role. Here Glandogard jumps into the breach with typical food antioxidant. The aim is to contribute to stopping the progressive degeneration of glandular tissue and to encourage tissue regeneration.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why use complex protective substances?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Destructive radical substances and affected tissue are completely different. For that reason, a reliable protection is only possible with diverse and efficient antioxidants. Not only oxidants nutrients like natural Vitamin E, Vitamin C and highly bio-available, organically bound selenium are used for Glandogard. In the main the focus is a complex mix of mineral sources such as monk&#8217;s pepper, holy thistle, buckwheat, goosebery, ginger and yeast extract. The cell protective substances of these plants are of a particular and special diversity.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Considering accompanying problems<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The typical accompanying disorders of ECS include immunodeficiency, chronic fatigue, shedding, hoof and reproductive problems. Glandogard therefore provides a variety of natural that target problem-specific nutrient deficiencies.These include an extensive complex of vitamins and organically bound trace elements, natural compaunds such as brewer&#8217;s yeast, ginger, garlic, fenugreek, linseed, seaweed and red clover. Marjoram, anise and fennel are added for appetite stimulation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The overall benefits of\u00a0Glandogard<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Glandogard offers a nature- oriented concentrate of nutrients, particularly addressing the additional nutritional requirements of horses suffering from the Equine Cushing&#8217;s Syndrome. Thus Glandogard can contribute to an improved quality of life of affected horses.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<ol>\n<li>Glandogard compensates for essential mineral defiencies that occur with the Equine Cushing&#8217;s Syndrome.
