Rosmarinus officinalis (Rosemary) - Feed Ingredient
Rosmarinus officinalis, commonly known as rosemary, is an aromatic, woody perennial herb native to the Mediterranean region. It belongs to the Lamiaceae family and is widely recognized for its fragrant leaves, which contain essential oils, flavonoids, and polyphenols. Rosemary is primarily used as a culinary and medicinal herb, but it also has applications in animal nutrition.
In equine feed and supplements, rosemary is used as a natural antioxidant and preservative due to its high concentration of bioactive compounds such as carnosic acid, rosmarinic acid, and essential oils like cineole and camphor. These compounds contribute to oxidative stability in feed formulations, helping to prevent rancidity in fats and oils. Additionally, rosemary may be included in herbal blends designed for digestive support and palatability enhancement.
The following equine feeds, supplements and products contain Rosmarinus officinalis (Rosemary) as an ingredient.
