Iris Rathmaier

Born in Dornbirn, what many horse-loving girls dream of has been fulfilled: the internationally successful tournament rider lives and works on her own riding facility in Stetten in Lower Austria, near Vienna. There were many hurdles to get there, but Iris Murray isn`t just a fighter in the saddle. She tells how and why she made it to the top.

During one of her visits to Vorarlberg, we meet Iris Murray for an interview in Dornbirn. The equestrian sport practiced for decades is reflected in their particular appearance. She describes herself as "ambitious, emancipated and determined".

The Best Horse Care Supplements for a Shiny and Healthy Coat

Who doesn`t love a shiny coat on a healthy horse? That`s precisely the reason why horse supplements targeting coats make up a large percentage of the marketplace. A poor quality coat is usually the first indication of an insufficient diet or health problems, like an illness or parasite for example. The reason is your horse`s body allocates a lesser priority to providing the coat with important nutrients.

The key to figuring out the best horse coat supplement is to focus on the dietary essentials which are weakest in the horse`s daily diet. Here are a few tips on how:

Remember, there are no all encompassing ingredients which automatically cause your horse`s coat to become shinier or help it grow a thicker, longer tail. Doubling nutrients doesn`t work either. It won`t quicken or double the results. Doubling only makes its body work harder in eliminating the excess nutrients.

Companies design horse supplements targeting the nutritional insufficiencies most likely to be causing coat-quality problems. These typically consist of fats, protein/amino acids and important minerals and vitamins. If your horse`s diet is in short supply in any of these components, you should see a difference quickly.

Other than water, protein is the most common material in all body tissues. Skin, hooves, hair, ligaments and cartilage are all adaptations of the same thing. They all require protein. Now, there are some differences in the arrangements of amino acids and the bonds between amino acids. This is what gives the proteins in the diverse tissues their own uniqueness; however they`re all mainly protein in the end.

Fat is common in most horse coat supplements. As a matter of fact, fat provides the coat its soft texture. It also creates a waterproof seal between individual cells and around the base of the hair. Polyunsaturated fats are a significant element. You see them commonly advertised in many supplements. Yet, only essential omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids are can`t a horse`s body produce on its own.

Copper is a critical mineral used in the production of dark-coat pigments. Insufficient copper is usually the reason why your horse`s coat and mane will lighten. Mineral imbalances or deficiencies are a frequent source of coat-related complaints, particularly plain colors and sun damage. Sun damage is frequent cause of dry and brittle coats since it breaks up hair proteins.

While complete vitamin-B deficiencies are doubtful in a horse, some critical vitamin-B`s are widespread components due to their positive effects on skin and coat health. Deficit symptoms are never an all-or-nothing thing. Less than optimal levels can still affect coat quality. The best way to build a heathly shiney coat is an overall balanced diet for your horse.
