A balanced diet is required to keep horses and ponies in good condition and to allow them to perform the work you ask of them.
Dengie Performance+ Balancer is free from molasses so is low in sugar as well as being very low in starch.
Performance+ Balancer has been formulated for horses and ponies in work or those with increased nutritional requirements, such as breeding and youngstock. Use Performance+ Balancer alongside a Dengie fibre feed to balance the ration or when using only fortified feed at less than required quantity.
Useful Information
• Molasses free - ideal for horses and ponies that require a low sugar diet
• Alfalfa - for highly bio-available vitamins, minerals and good quality protein
• Linseed - high in omega 3 essential fatty acids for exceptional coat shine and condition
• Herbs - rosemary and thyme are added for palatability and as a source of antioxidants
• Glucosamine for joint support
• Prebiotics for digestive support
• B vitamins including biotin - needed for efficient energy metabolism and hoof condition - supplies 15mg of biotin for a 500kg horse
• Chelated minerals - trace minerals such as copper are vulnerable to interactions with other minerals in the gut. Chelating them protects them so that the horse can absorb them more efficiently
• Also suitable for veteran horses and ponies
• Shelf life = 6 months, 15Kg bag
