Alfa-A Balancer

Alfa-A Balancer is formulated for horses and ponies in work or with increased nutritional requirements to be fed alongside any of the Alfa-A range of Fibre Feeds.

The aim of this diet is to utilise the energy and quality protein that the Alfa-A range of Fibre Feeds provide with the Alfa-A Balancer supplying essential nutrients to balance the ration as well as ingredients designed to promote health and condition.

Key Features:

  • Molasses free – ideal for horses and ponies that require a low sugar diet
  • Alfalfa – for highly bio-avilable vitamins and minerals that are easy for a horse or pony to absorb
  • Linseed – high in omega 3 essential fatty acids for exceptional coat shine and condition
  • Rice – ideal for horses and ponies with sensitive digestive systems
  • Herbs – rosemary and thyme are added for palatability and as a source of antioxidants
  • Glucosamine – to counteract everyday wear and tear to joints
  • Prebiotics – to help keep the gut healthy
  • B vitamins including biotin – needed for efficient energy metabolism and hoof condition
  • 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.
