Untie® Ingredients

Ingredient Philosophy

Untie® is formulated to work via a nutritional systems approach to equine muscle health and inflammation management. Rather than relying on pharmacological pain suppression, Untie® provides bioavailable nutrients that support normal muscle metabolism, neuromuscular signaling, antioxidant balance, and recovery processes.

Each ingredient category is selected for absorption efficiency, physiological relevance, and synergistic function within the working horse.

Water‑Soluble B‑Complex Vitamins

B‑complex vitamins play a critical role in energy metabolism, muscle contraction, and nervous system function. Because these vitamins are water‑soluble, they must be supplied consistently—especially in performance horses with elevated metabolic demand.

Functional benefits include:

• Supporting normal carbohydrate and fat metabolism

• Assisting efficient muscle energy utilization

• Supporting nerve impulse transmission to muscle fibers

• Helping reduce metabolic stress during intense work

Performance horses, particularly those in heavy training, often have higher B‑vitamin turnover, making consistent supplementation important.

Chelated Trace Minerals

Untie® utilizes chelated (organic) trace minerals, which are minerals bound to amino acids or organic ligands. This form improves intestinal absorption and cellular uptake compared to inorganic mineral salts.

Why chelation matters:

• Improved bioavailability

• Reduced mineral antagonism in the gut

• More predictable utilization at the tissue level

Trace minerals contribute to:

• Normal muscle contraction and relaxation

• Enzyme systems involved in recovery

• Structural integrity of muscle tissue

• Antioxidant defense mechanisms

Antioxidant Support Nutrients

Exercise and muscle exertion increase oxidative stress, a normal byproduct of aerobic and anaerobic metabolism. When oxidative load exceeds the horse’s antioxidant capacity, muscle fatigue and delayed recovery may occur.

Untie® includes nutrients that support the body’s endogenous antioxidant systems, helping maintain balance rather than suppressing natural physiological responses.

Antioxidant support helps:

• Neutralize excess free radicals

• Support post‑exercise muscle recovery

• Maintain normal inflammatory balance

Electrolyte & Neuromuscular Support Elements

Proper neuromuscular signaling depends on a balanced availability of key minerals involved in:

• Muscle contraction

• Muscle relaxation

• Nerve impulse transmission

Untie® supports these systems nutritionally, helping muscles function smoothly during work and recover efficiently afterward.

This is particularly important for:

• Horses prone to muscle tightness or cramping

• Horses training in hot or humid conditions

• Horses with inconsistent recovery between workouts

Digestive & Probiotic Support Components

Nutrient absorption begins in the gut. Untie® includes ingredients that support digestive efficiency and microbial balance, which can influence how effectively nutrients are absorbed and utilized.

Digestive support benefits include:

• Improved nutrient uptake

• Reduced digestive stress during training or travel

• More consistent response to supplementation

A healthy digestive environment supports overall performance, recovery, and resilience.

Ingredient Synergy & Bioavailability

The effectiveness of Untie® does not depend on any single ingredient, but on the interaction between complementary nutrient systems. Vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and digestive components work together to support:

• Normal muscle physiology

• Efficient recovery after exertion

• Long‑term soundness and performance consistency

This systems‑based formulation approach is why Untie® is commonly incorporated into long‑term management and conditioning programs.

Quality & Transparency

Untie® ingredients are selected based on:

• Bioavailability and functional relevance

• Suitability for long‑term daily use

• Compatibility with performance horse nutrition programs

Always refer to the product label for guaranteed analysis and specific ingredient inclusion.
