The Veteran Balancer is a highly appetising muesli ration ideal for senior horses and ponies that are leading active and even competitive lives, whose weight needs to be managed. This fully balanced, nutrient dense ration is formulated to maintain optimum health, wellbeing and continued zest for life. This appetising malted flavoured balancer benefits from the unique inclusion of Palatability Plus (P+) taste technology, which is designed to encourage even the fussiest of feeders and help maintain nutritional intake. In addition, Veteran Balancer benefits from a unique plant based coating, that provides a source of slowly digestible calories that when combined with digestible fibres helps to provide a healthier source of energy to veteran horses that are still in light work or active training programmes. Veteran Balancer is particularly suitable for those older horses and ponies that are ‘good doers’ but who are also more at risk to metabolic disease such as laminitis or EMS. This low glycaemic coating helps to maintain palatability and feed intake while also helping to maintain optimum metabolic health. Veteran Balancer is based on digestible fibre sources, which are low in calories and provide slow-release energy to the diet, while also supporting the health of the hindgut. The inclusion of full fat linseed meal helps to provide a source of omega 3 fatty acids and a safe source of slow-release energy to help maintain body condition and support stamina. A live yeast inclusion helps to ensure efficient digestion of the fibre and forage sources in the diet by maintaining a healthy and biodiverse hindgut microbial population. A healthy digestive system and microbial population is a key factor in maintaining health on the inside that shows on the outside. Fully fortified with a full spectrum of vitamins and minerals including chelated minerals and antioxidants, Veteran Balancer is designed to be fed at low daily intakes to balance the forage portion of the diet. Veteran horses in a regular work programme who require fewer calories to maintain body condition benefit from a diet that is high in quality protein providing essential amino acids to help maintain optimum muscle mass, coat and hoof condition. Exercise maintains muscle mass and reduces insulin resistance.
