Equine I-Mix (Recommendation only) Iodine

2% I-Mix Equine (Iodine) is a free choice mineral used for thyroid issues and goiters.

Approximately half of the iodine in the body is located in the thyroid gland, which produces important hormones, such as thyroxin. Thyroxin, which contains 65% iodine, has a regulating effect on body metabolism. Thyroxin is involved in regulation of basal metabolic rate, temperature regulation, growth & development, neuromuscular function & reproduction. Iodine absorption is regulated by the body to some extent, but can be toxic. Iodine is well absorbed in any of its soluble forms from all levels of the gastrointestinal tract.

Iodine deficiency causes birth of weak and deformed offspring failing to survive, abortion, infertility, anestrus, reduced conception in all species, and other reproductive problems. Severe iodine deficiency results in goiter or lumpy jaw, high incidence of stillbirths, hairless pigs and wool-less lambs at birth.

In their natural state, wild animals instinctively seek the food nutrients they need from a wide variety of natural sources. Domesticated animals today are restricted to small pastures, lots, stalls and buildings. The availability of natural sources for minerals and vitamins dwindles in relation to the degree of confinement.

Advanced Biological Concepts provides many nutritional solutions for confined and semi-confined horses by offering the Free Choice Stress System, A.B.C.'s Complete Diagnostic Free Choice System and the Free Choice Box Stall Kit (described on the following pages). Natural minerals are provided in separate compartments. They are natural in composition and in taste, with no additives. Horses can choose their minerals and vitamins by instinct and taste alone, as they always have.
