CMV for horse: The vital balance for your companion's health

The CMV (Vitaminated Mineral Supplement) is the pillar of equine nutrition. Whether your horse is in the box, in the meadow, at work or in retirement, a diet based solely on fodder or cereals almost systematically has deficiencies in trace elements and vitamins.

At ESC Laboratory, we design high-precision VMCs to fill these metabolic gaps and ensure the proper functioning of the body: bone strength, horn quality, hair shine and immunity.

Why is CMV essential for ration?

Contrary to the ideas received, the CMV is not a « extra », but a necessity. As soils become increasingly impoverished, grass and hay are often insufficient to meet daily needs, including by:

  • Oligo-elements: Copper and Zinc (essential for skin and connective tissue), Selenium (major antioxidant).

  • Vitamins: Vitamin A, D3 and E for cell growth, vision and protection.

  • Minerals: A balanced Phosphocalcic ratio (Ca/P) for bone density.

A lack of CMV can result in chronic fatigue, decreased performance, or foot problems (cracky, soy).

How to choose the right mineral vitamin supplement?

Every horse is unique. Our experts have developed formulas adapted to each physiological profile:

  1. CMV for horse in the meadow or box: Specifically dosed to complete a grass-based feed, often rich in iron but covered in copper and zinc.

  2. CMV Poulain: Adapted to the growing foal. Helps to support the harmonious development of the skeleton and muscles of horses under 3 years of age.

  3. Top mineral : Ideal for horses during periods of intense effort or needing joint and tendinous reinforcement.

The difference ESC Laboratory: Quality and Assimilation

We favour highly comparable sources to avoid metabolic waste and ensure that every gram of supplement actually benefits your horse.

  • Appetence tested: Easy to mix with ration or hand-give granulated formats.

  • Total transparency: Detailed analysis of each component on our labels.

Did you know that? A horse that eats soil or licks its walls often shows a deep mineral deficiency. Regular intake of CMV helps to stabilize these behaviour « pica ».
