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 additional feed usually contains a selection of minerals and trace elements to prevent diseases or to support the muscles. Mineral feed is known, for example, in the form of a salt lick. These are not only available as salt licks, but also with additional minerals, which are hanging in many boxes as a supplement to normal feeding.
Liquid feed with electrolytes can be used to compensate for mineral loss, for example due to increased training during tournaments. These supplementary feeds 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. The sweet taste is also very popular with many horses as a treat.
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.
Through the targeted feeding of high-quality supplementary feed, many diseases can be prevented in advance. Intestinal disturbances are often the reason for the discomfort. Darm Fit is a herbal nutritional supplement for horses that are sensitive to colic. It strengthens the immune system and can therefore also be used for recurring skin irritations such as mud fever, fungal diseases or itching.
Many riders like to feed them linseed oil because it is a natural source of energy with no protein load. It promotes vitality and motivation and is rich in essential, unsaturated fatty acids. In addition, it promotes digestion and ensures a shiny coat. Linseed oil helps hard-feeding horses to build up mass. For example, if you pour it over a few carrots, it will help absorb the vitamins better.
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.
