Formulated for horses and ponies in work or those 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 Performance+ 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
- 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.
