Copper Amino Acid Complex - Feed Ingredient

Copper amino acid complex is an organic trace mineral supplement in which copper is chelated (bound) to amino acids, improving its bioavailability compared to inorganic forms like copper sulfate or copper oxide. This enhanced absorption allows for more efficient utilization in the horse’s body.

In equine nutrition, copper is essential for red blood cell production, connective tissue formation, immune function, and coat pigmentation. It also plays a critical role in joint health by supporting cartilage development. Copper amino acid complex is often included in feeds and supplements to ensure optimal copper intake, particularly for growing horses, performance horses, and broodmares.

The following equine feeds, supplements and products contain Copper Amino Acid Complex as an ingredient.
