Plant Extracts - Feed Ingredient
Plant extracts refer to concentrated substances derived from various parts of plants, such as leaves, roots, stems, seeds, or flowers. These extracts are obtained through mechanical, solvent-based, or thermal processes that isolate specific bioactive compounds, such as essential oils, polyphenols, flavonoids, alkaloids, and saponins. The type and concentration of compounds in a plant extract depend on the plant species, plant part used, and extraction method employed.
In equine feed and supplement formulations, plant extracts are typically included for their functional properties, which may include effects on palatability, digestion, microbial activity, or physiological responses. Examples of commonly used plant extracts in equine nutrition include yucca extract (used for odor control and gut health), ginger or turmeric extracts (used for their anti-inflammatory properties). These extracts are generally used in small quantities due to their potency.
Variability in plant source, extraction method, and dosage can impact both the safety and efficacy of the extract.
The following equine feeds, supplements and products contain Plant Extracts as an ingredient.
