Thiamin, also known as vitamin B1, is an important, well-established substance that plays a significant role in the body's stress management and has also been shown to have beneficial effects in cases of tense muscles or for horses that easily become nervous. The supplement is also recommended for use in cases of patellar fixation and to facilitate both coat shedding and metabolism.
Vitamin B1 is involved in the body's energy production and is typically obtained through the horse's diet. However, in cases of a deficiency of this substance in the diet, a supplement containing Thiamin is a good alternative.
Thiamin is water-soluble, and any excess is excreted through urine.
