100% PROTECTED TRACE MINERALS

Included in every formula, Esqort® is Riomax's blend of 100% protected trace minerals. A combination of copper, manganese, zinc and selenium.

This synergy of multi-bond chelates and crystal trace minerals simply means: The trace minerals are 100% protected in all of the Riomax® formulas.

Research shows that these sulfates and oxides are more detrimental than we previously realized.  We have always known that they were less ‘available’ and become easily tied-up with antagonists such as iron/sulfur and molybdenum.  Studies have shown, however, that sulfates and oxides negatively affect vitamins in the feed as well as beneficial microbes that are required for fiber digestion.  We see the use of sulfates and oxides in key trace minerals as a triple-negative, and thus rely on the Esqort® Trace Mineral Technology for 100% of the key trace mineral ingredients.
