Why Nettles?
Pure Innovation
Historic folklore documents the use of nettles as a natural food enhancement and immunostimulant on many species and humans safely and successfully over the years.
Stinging nettle (Urtica dioica) has a high nutritive value, containing several beneficial compounds such as vitamins A,D, and C, proteins, minerals calcium, iron, potassium, manganese, chlorine, amines, anti-oxidant chlorophyll, and 5- hydroxytryptophan. The carotenoids are another important nutrient group present in stinging nettle. Nine carotenoids were identified in the leaves, with the major one being B-carotene
Based on sound evidence showing that the natural traits occurring in nettles increase wellbeing Urtica Plus have developed a production model to make 100% pure nettle (Urtica dioica) commercially available. As a fully traceable UK product it is available as a raw to industry in many forms.
Produced to a very high field standard that satisfies strict FEMAS/BETA/NOPS requirements. This makes Urtica Plus nettle suitable for inclusion into high quality diets for competitive equine, and high quality demanded by other species in their diets.
Urtica Plus nettle field production has very positive effects environmentally being a net contributor to the environment through carbon sequestration in the field.
