Bioplex Copper is a highly absorbable chelated copper proteinate providing 12% elemental copper. The proteinate form offers superior bioavailability compared to inorganic copper sources, making it particularly well suited to precision forage balancing programmes.
Copper is an essential trace mineral that plays a wide-ranging nutritional role in the horse's body. It is commonly low in UK forage, making targeted supplementation particularly valuable for horses on grass, hay, or haylage-based diets. Copper absorption is complex, as it interacts with several other trace elements, which can affect its availability in the equine diet.
