derbymed® Crosulin

Crosulin supports the harmonisation of the glucose level and consequently it reduces the risk of metabolic disorders like EMS or laminitis.

Obesity may negatively affect the metabolism of fat and carbohydrates and is a major reason for the development of equine metabolic syndrome (EMS). Alongside a weightloss diet and training program, the supply of high-value nutrients is necessary to counteract the metabolic disorder and its effects on the horse‘s health. Crosulin contains a naturally high concentration of chromium, L-carnitine (to support energy production),antioxidants and herbal extracts (to help increase blood circulation). Components like Shepherd´s Purse, Yeast, Fenugreek and Spirulina with a high concentration of chromium improve the acceptance of glucose into the cell, helping to increase the efficacy of insulin.

Chromium enables the connection of insulin with the receptors to transport glucose into the cell.

Several studies from human medicine have shown that a supplementation with Chromium for overweight diabetics increases the sensitivity of insulin and regulates the glucose level. This has been shown to have a positive effect in decreasing excessive appetite. Spirulina and L-carnitine as well as essential amino acids support muscle metabolism and growth.
