SANTA YNEZ VALLEY, California – Platinum Performance, Inc. has completed production of a new CD-ROM in their educational series called “The Role of Omega-3 Essential Fatty Acids in Equine Health.” Created in conjunction with the University of Georgia veterinary school, this CD-ROM provides conclusive evidence that Omega-3 fatty acids are necessary to a horse’s quality of life and performance.

Utilizing the same cutting edge illustrative techniques developed for the motion picture, Shrek, this CD-ROM allows participants to view the intricate mechanics of equine metabolism in a way never before available. Colorful and technically accurate illustrations lead the participant through the causes of joint pain and offer conclusions based on scientific data that confirm the importance of Omega-3 and Omega-6 essential fatty acids in the suppression of joint and cartilage inflammation.

This CD-ROM is available free of charge to equine industry practitioners, media representatives and horse industry participants as part of Platinum’s on-going educational development program. Veterinarians and media outlets are welcome to offer the details of the free CD-Rom program to their clients and readers in an effort to better educate them about joint inflammation.

“We believe that factual, relevant and timely education of the horse owner, trainer and breeder is essential to promoting the long-term health and well-being of horses,” explains Mark Herthel, Vice President of Platinum Performance, Inc.

“Over the years, we have discovered that good nutrition can prevent or reduce the need for medications or surgical alternatives in the fight against common joint problems. Although no one but your veterinarian will be able to properly diagnose the health and condition of your horse’s joints, we suggest adding the proper balance of Omega-3 and Omega-6 essential fatty acids along with the anti-oxidants, vitamins and minerals found in Platinum to the horse’s diet before problems occur.”
