Supplementary feed to support the health of your horse

In addition to normal horse feed such as hay or grass and concentrated feed such as pellets or oats, you can support your horse with supplementary feed. This supplementary feed usually contains a selection of minor substances and trace elements to prevent diseases or to support the muscles. Mineral feed is known, for example, in the form of a lick stone. These are not only available as salt licks, but also with additional minerals that hang in many boxes as a supplement to normal feeding.

To compensate for mineral loss, for example through increased training during the tournament, liquid feed with electrolytes is ideal. These feed supplements contain important minerals such as potassium, chloride, magnesium and sodium. These ensure a balanced electrolyte balance. The fructose contained in the syrup ensures quick absorption. In addition, the sweet taste is also very popular as a treat with many horses.

Supplementary feed to support the tendons, ligaments and hooves

Of course, there is also food to support the tendons, ligaments and hooves. Horses in particular that enjoy grazing all year round often need a little additional feed. If the horse's legs are constantly overloaded, it is necessary to intervene not only with proper cooling but also with feeding. A good remedy is the Chrysanphyton from Equistro. If the hooves are affected by damp or too dry soil on the pasture, Kerabol helps. This supplementary feed ensures regular and stable hoof horn formation.

Many diseases develop in the intestine - here too you can help with feed supplements

Targeted feeding of high quality supplementary feed can prevent many diseases in advance. Bowel disorders are often the reason for the malaise. Darm Fit is a herbal food supplement for horses that are sensitive to colic. It strengthens the immune system and can therefore also be used in the case of recurring skin irritations such as mold, fungal diseases or itching.

Linseed oil supports your horse in changing coat, digestion and vitality

Many riders like to feed linseed oil because it is a natural source of energy without protein pollution. It promotes vitality and motivation and it is rich in essential, unsaturated fatty acids. In addition, it promotes digestion and ensures a shiny coat. Linseed oil helps heavy-fed horses gain mass. For example, if you add it to a few carrots, it will help absorb the vitamins better.

Supplementary feed to relieve the airways

If your horse tends to have a slight cold and strained airways, you can support it with various means. First of all, an infection should be clarified by the veterinarian. But if you already know the symptoms, or if it is a preventive measure in the transition to autumn / winter, you can, for example Effol Grab Med BronchoCare. Both the ointment and the syrup are made from high-quality herbal compositions that promote free breathing and soothe irritated airways. However, check the ingredients carefully in case your horse is allergic to something. The Leovet Bronchial Elixir also helps to compensate for airway disorders more quickly. The bronchial elixir contains echinacea, anise, fennel, buckhorn, chestnut, primrose and thyme, which are gently processed as fluid extracts.
