Presentation of GERMTONIC
Dietary supplement for horses
Based in the Aveyron (southern edge of the Massif Central in France), we have
been selling Germ'tonic for the ewes whose milk goes to make Roquefort cheese
since 1995 and for horses since 2002.
The Germ'Tonic range of dietary supplements, aimed at competition horses, mares
and foals, contains products that are natural, but elaborated by specialists
in the heart of the beautiful Larzac plateau. Germ'tonic contributes to the
regulation of the digestive system, at the same time supplying energy to the
horses thanks to a unique combination of germinated cereals whose effectiveness
has been scientifically proved.
Taking care of the digestive system requires two different approaches; enzymatic
before the large intestine and microbial in the large intestine.
The cereals which make up Germ'Tonic are cultivated on the Larzac plateau at
an altitude of between 800 and 900 metres: they are not treated with any insecticides.
For the growth of these cereals we use Bactériosol®
which is composed of microfauna-microflora and of micro-organism activators,
associated on an organomineral support. A unique procedure which substitutes
for all forms of fertilisation and helps to conserve the environment.
The GERM'TONIC process
Microbial preparations, elaborated in tubs (patented process): lactic
fermentation of germinated barley and oats.
This is an original and effective nutritional concept which optimises digestion,
assimilation and muscular metabolism.
The manufacturing process lasts from 6 to10 weeks.
The objective of GERMTONIC products is to stimulate and improve the digestive
system of the horse by providing it with an easily-assimilated complex of
20 naturally-occuring amino-acids, enzymes, vitamins and oligo-elements.
Double action:
intestinal flora + essential nutrients
A natural product which has been tested and proved not to contain illegal
substances:
- At the Grosbois
training centre, in collaboration with an equine nutritionist and six
trainers we carried out tests during one month on seven of their horses during
the competition season.
All the horses were monitored by a vet: a blood sample was taken and a clinical
examination carried out before and after a GERMTONIC cure. We have also carried
out tests in other stables.
The results showed that practically all the horses showed significant improvement
in their muscles and livers with a reduction in levels of bilirubin.
- Moreover, the grooms noted an improvement in the overall state of the horses:
more vitality, shinier coats, healthier droppings...

Conservation of the product:
GERMTONIC may be kept for six months after the date of manufacture.
Tracability:
Each batch is identified and numbered: we keep two control samples throughout
the life of the product.
