The philosophy behind the EQUUS range is to combine the age old, proven principles of natural feeding techniques with the latest technological research. Throughout this range, the emphasis is on natural fibres and gut health. The guiding principal behind all the formulations is to feed horses as naturally as possible. Carefully selected, top grade fibres naturally preferred by horses, have been blended with all the other nutrients required to create a practical range of products for a wide range of applications. Making our horse feeds as natural as possible is always the priority and only ingredients of the highest quality are used: fibres are selected for palatability and effectiveness in ensuring gut health; proteins are selected based on their specific amino acid profile; fats included compose a specific Omega-3 profile; starches are selected for their specific tempo of digestion to ensure a gradual release of energy; and vitamins and minerals are included based on their bio-availability and stability in mixtures. Each product is nutritionally complete, contains elevated levels of vitamins, minerals and electrolytes, and is formulated to fulfill all the nutritional requirements for its specific application. Normal healthy horses will need nothing else besides good quality hay or pasture. It is important to keep in mind that stress due to extensive traveling, illness and other medical conditions might require the use of some of the excellent supplements available to assist recovery. While we utilise only the latest equine technology and research in our product formulations certain horses, or specific conditions, may require supplements and rather than claiming to incorporate additives for all seasons, we prefer to encourage owners to obtain professional advice from their veterinarian/equine pharmacist about the correct supplement to use. |
