Why High-Quality Mineral Feed is Important

Good minerals are essential for your horse's health, strength, and well-being. A high-quality mineral feed helps prevent deficiencies and supports metabolism, bones, muscles, and the immune system.

Why High-Quality Mineral Feed Makes Sense

• Reliable Supply: Magnesium, calcium, phosphorus, zinc, selenium, and more in the correct ratio.
• Specially for Horses: Products consider age, activity, keeping conditions, and feeding frequency.
• Supports bones and muscles, enhances performance, and aids in regeneration.

Managing Requirements Correctly

• Low Energy Requirement: Horses with little work only need mineral feed in courses, i.e., occasionally as a supplement.
• High Energy Requirement: Performance horses or horses under heavy strain need mineral feed regularly to prevent deficiencies.
• Individual Decision: Amount and duration depend on keeping conditions, feeding, and health status – best in consultation with a vet or nutritionist.

How to Recognize Good Mineral Feed

• Clear Declaration: precise indication of minerals, trace elements, and vitamins per daily ration.
• Good Bioavailability: high-quality forms of minerals (e.g., chelates).
• Additional Benefits: antioxidant vitamins, prebiotics possible.
• No Fillers or Pelleting Aids: no unnecessary additives or a lot of grain.

Practical Tips

• Introduce Gradually: when switching to a new mineral feed, introduce it step-by-step over 1–2 weeks.
• Regular Checks: blood tests or consultation with a vet can help.
• Think Holistically: mineral feed supplements hay/grass, fresh water, and exercise.

Conclusion

A high-quality mineral feed is important – adjust the dosage to your horse's energy requirements: in courses for low demand, regularly for high demand.
