Weight Gain/Maintenance

Feed quality over quantity, with up to 90% hindgut fermentation. An excellent alternative to beet pulp stabilised rice bran and soybean hulls. Quality source of amino acids provides the building blocks for growth. Considered a super fibre for its low sugar, low starch and high fermentable fibre profile for cool energy and natural B vitamin production.

Digestive Health

The fibre-based grain free horse feed pellet maintains a healthy gut microbiome, and the live probiotics and prebiotics promote the growth of beneficial good bacteria. The live probiotics stabilise the pH and reduce lactic acid in the hindgut. The result is a stimulated activity and growth of beneficial good bacteria for more efficient feed conversion. Improvements in appetite, behaviour and mature quality are all associated with a healthy gut environment.

Immune System Health

Key chelated minerals are required for a proper functioning immune system. Prebiotics inhibit harmful bacteria whilst stimulating the immune system’s function. The prebiotics blocks the attachment and development of harmful bacteria within the gut. This has a positive effect on the horse’s natural immune system, reducing the risk of disease through a stronger immune response.

Hoof Health

Specifically balanced vitamin and mineral profile including chelated zinc, methionine & biotin also by creating a healthier gut microbiome, biotin is produced naturally by the horse in the hind gut and utilised to help maintain hoof health.

Skin & Coat Condition

Zinc is more important for dark colours, while copper is more important for chestnuts. It is crucial that zinc and copper are at correct ratios in the diet, regardless of the horse’s colour. Australian pasture, hay and feed crops are commonly low in zinc and copper while being naturally high in iron (Complete Grain-Free has no added iron). This greatly impacts a horse’s dietary intake as all three compete for absorption. Too much of one means less of the others are absorbed. Complete Grain-Free contains Chelated Zinc and Chelated Copper, which are more readily absorbed by horses.

Bone & Muscle Health

Calcium and phosphorus are the main minerals found in bones. The ratio should be up to 3:1 Ca:P for the overall diet. Magnesium is required for the collagen matrix and bone mineralisation. Zinc, Copper and Boron for bone development. Zinc in particular for bone and cartilage formation. The key vitamins are Vitamin D for bone mineralisation and calcium and phosphorus absorption. Vitamin A for osteoclast function, bone-resorbing cells in bone remodelling. Vitamin C in collagen synthesis and repair. Vitamin K in bone and cartilage metabolism.
