Linseed Meal for horses & dogs

If the name Linseed Meal isn’t familiar to you, you might recognise by its other name, Flaxseed.

Linseed Meal is actually a  secondary product of the Flaxseed oil extraction process. It's what's left over once all the oil has been pressed out of the seeds and the remaining husk is ground down into a coarse powder.

The great thing about Linseed meal is that it’s packed with nutritional goodness. Not only is it high in protein, it’s also rich in fibre and Omega-3 fatty acids. 

Let’s take a look at how we use it here at YuMOVE.

Linseed Meal for horses

Linseed Meal also puts in an appearance in our popular horse joint supplements, but, this time, for an altogether different reason.

As well as its brilliant nutritional benefits, Linseed Meal can be used as a ‘carrier’ ingredient, which means it helps ensure other active ingredients are properly dispersed through a formula so they can do their intended job.

Linseed Meal for dogs

You may well have eaten Flaxseeds on cereals or salads. They’re famed for their digestive benefits, especially helping to keep things regular! 

They have gut benefits for dogs too. That’s because Linseed Meal provides a natural source of fibre which is rich in lignans and antioxidants.

When used in digestive supplements for dogs, Linseed Meal can help support a healthy gut environment, supporting healthy digestion and wellbeing.

At YuMOVE, Linseed Meal is included in our Digestive Support Rapid Powder, which is designed to firm loose stools and help pets recover after digestive upset.

Linseed Meal benefits

The benefits of Linseed Meal for dogs and horses depend on the role they’re designed to play.

Here’s how they can help:

• Maintain the natural gut balance: Linseed Meal helps the digestive system to keep everything ticking along just as it should.
• Encourage healthy digestion: The natural fibre in Linseed Meal assists the digestive process, helping your pet to process their daily meals and absorb all-important nutrients.
• ‘Carry’ other important ingredients: In some formulas, Linseed Meal’s job is to give other active ingredients a piggyback so they can do their job as intended.
