Use a Unique Combination of Bioactive Mushrooms to Address the Particular Nutritional and Medicinal Needs of Horses

Mushrooms contain:

• some of the most powerful
  anti-oxidative properties known in any food product
  strong anti-viral properties, (3)
  excellent anti-inflammatory active ingredients
  proven anti-tumoral elements.
• GGM/NW seeks to provide equine veterinarians, horse owners and horse trainers with medicinal mushroom based food additives which address these issues in their animals in a uniquely efficient and effective manner.
• Use of a whole natural mushroom blend provides needed nutrition without having to give the animal synthetic chemicals/nutrients with questionable absorption, cell penetration, and physiologic effect.

Equine nutrition question and concept: Why use synthetic chemicals as nutritional supplements without any enzyme backup to promote proper bioavailability and utilization?

Mushrooms have evolved by means of externally digesting foods by secreting enzymes and acids into their immediate environs and then absorbing nutrients using netlike chains. The GGM/NW concept is to use whole mushrooms in a unique blend that optimizes each mushrooms’ enzymatic structure. The mushrooms in our blend essentially work for us through the concept of enzymatic digestion of designed starter substrates. This technology was developed in a cooperative research venture with Dr. Robert Beelman, Professor of Food Science at Pennsylvania State University. We emphasize the production of high levels of polyphenols, beta-glucans, L-Ergothioneine, selenomethionine and other unique bioactive components.

The secret lies in the use of whole bioactive entities with enzymatic function and present to the animal nutritional supplements in an easily absorbable, bioavailable and active form.
