Influencing Pregnancy Rate
With a Natural Diet and Targeted Supplementation
A horse's intake of vital nutrients, including omega-3 fatty acids, amino acids, antioxidants, vitamins and trace minerals, has been shown to play a significant role in cellular health for improved outcomes, including reproductive success.
STUDY: A group of sub-fertile mares ranging in age from 6 to 25 years were fed a hay-based ration and a commercial grain-based feed (control diet), then were changed to a ration of hay and a comprehensive wellness formula for 8 to 16 weeks.
OUTCOME: Eggs were harvested when the mares were on the control diet and the supplemented diet and embryos were implanted into recipient mares. Pregnancy rates in mares on the supplemented diet improved from 23 percent to 51 percent, a 129 percent increase.

Platinum Stallion Support
“We added Platinum Stallion Support to our stud’s Platinum Performance® Equine when he went to the stallion station and we have seen a substantial difference in his semen quality! His semen went from 70% motility to 80% motility in one season.”
— Brian H. Platinum Performance® client since 2016
This potent antioxidant and omega-3 fatty acid formula helps to protect sperm and oocytes from the damage caused by free radicals during the reproductive process.
Recommended For:
- Horses Coping with Fertility Difficulties
- Stallions with Low Sperm Counts or Those Freezing Semen
Health Tip
Providing omega-3 fatty acids, antioxidants, vitamins and both macro and trace minerals can help support not only the fertility of the mare but also the health of the foal she is carrying while in utero and after birth. In addition, nourishing the gut with prebiotics, probiotics and glutamine can help support immune health and proper gut function before breeding, during gestation and after foaling.
