NAF EnerG Shot includes Branch Chain Amino Acids (BCAAs), well-known for supporting elite athletic performance. These BCAA’s work in synergy in a unique amino acid blend for fast-release energy. The range of ingredients included are key to energy and performance during exercise. EnerG Shot is ideal for when that performance boost is needed, whether that is getting ready for the jump off, making your way around a three day event or for those that just need a little extra ‘oomph’.
What are BCAA’s?
Three amino acids, Leucine, Isoleucine and Valine, together make up the BCAA’s. BCAA’s are particularly associated with sporting effort and are recommended to maintain energy levels, quickly, and support muscle function.
How does the horse use amino acids for energy?
Amino acids can be used as energy when other energy sources are not immediately available. Breakdown of these amino acids directly influence the energy production cycle (commonly known as the Krebs Cycle) either along ‘glucogenic’ or ‘ketogenic’ pathways. Providing both ensures all parameters are met.
Make sure you have an EnerG Shot to hand if you need to optimize their energy metabolism fast.
EnerG shot works well when fed with daily EnerG liquid.

A few months ago I started feeding Metazone Powder to my wonderful mare and we have recently qualified for RDS Dublin horse show in amateurs! She felt absolutely amazing, I also give an EnerG Shot before competitions which really helps! It was an all day event and she had to jump 3 rounds. She didn't feel tired, jumped really well and we qualified!
"After a challenging weekend with Micky competing on the Saturday in British dressage in three separate classes, we knew micky was going to need a pick me up; especially with a four hour gap in between dressage and show jumping. During dressage, micky felt amazing and then went sleepy during his break but soon perked up when he had his boost of enerG shot! He flew around show jumping and didn’t even want to stop during cross country. A firm favourite in the Micky Finn team and we will certainly be using again!! Roll on the rest of the eventing season!"
Solli, a Show Arabian and Mooney a Welsh pony owned by Katie O'Brian Before Mooney becomes very tired whilst competing with Katie's daughter at Pony Club and Solli needs an extra boost to make him stand out from the crowd. After Says Katie, "I use the EnerG liquid and the EnerG shots to give Solli and Mooney an extra boost. Mooney has had some very good results with my daughter since she has been on EnerG. While Solli has gained 2 Championships and 3 Reserves this season along with numerous wins on our first season out together. I cannot rate EnerG enough!"

I have been using NAF EnerG for a number of years for my mare Tia, whom I compete with in all riding club activities and BS amateur classes. I feed EnerG Liquid during the hot months when she is working hard and competing regularly, as well as using the EnerG Shots at competitions. They give Tia that bit of extra spark and focus without heating her up, and she recovers so much more quickly after a hard day's work. I always ensure these vital products are in my lorry - without them, it can be hard work! Sara Bryant Photocredit - www.jumpforit.co.uk
