Supplementary feed to maintain quality of life

Ergänzungsfuttermittel zum Erhalt der Lebensqualität

As the horse has developed into a leisure and sport partner, the realization has grown that conventional nutrition can no longer meet the needs of the modern horse. Often, normal daily feeding no longer covers the actual needs of a performance diet. In these cases, the horse needs daily, tailored supplementary feed to maintain its quality of life.

The advantage of supplementary feed is that it can be tailored to the individual needs of a horse. There can be many reasons why supplementary feed is necessary, such as preventing deficiencies in the horse, providing support during an acute illness, or during a recovery phase. Old horses, pregnant or lactating mares and also foals require special minerals or trace elements that should be fed to the horse in supplementary feed. Horses that work hard, are in training or do competitive sports naturally have a very high need for minerals - supplementary feed for the horse is also necessary here.

It is important that the supplementary feed is regularly added to the normal feed ration in order to prevent deficiencies or horse diseases caused by malnutrition. This is because deficiencies usually develop gradually and are therefore often only recognized late. It is also a good idea to regularly check that the horse is receiving sufficient minerals and trace elements, for example by having the veterinarian take a blood test. This can then be used to determine the optimal supplementary feed for your horse.
