Equi-Jewel is a pelleted high oil rice bran supplement, designed to increase the energy density (calories) of aration.
It can be added to boost calorie intake, or to replace part of the ration to reduce concentrate consumption, so can be a good way to encourage picky eaters. The high oil (18%) and fibre levels are naturally occurring, making it very compatible for use alongside all of the other feeds in the Saracen racing range. It is a stabilised rice bran that can be top-dressed onto any ration for extra energy density, to build body condition and provide additional mineralsupport.
Equi-Jewel is specifically designed to nutritionally support the equine athlete by providing a highly palatable form of additional calories and protein, and the additional benefits of KER's BMC® (Buffered MineralComplex).
It is very effective at adding condition, and building muscle and topline, making it ideal for supporting horses in training that are prone to losing topline and bodycondition.
The oil in Equi-Jewel is highly digestible, and is equally as digestible as corn oil, but in a more palatable, pelleted form. 500 grams of Equi-Jewel contains the same amount of energy as 250 millilitres (1/2 pint) of liquidoil.
It can be added 3-4 days before a race to provide a boost in energy and continued for 2-3 days after the race to improve recovery rates. For horses needing extra condition and topline during a busy racing campaign, 2-5 cups per day can be fed, dropping down to a maintenance level of 2-3 cups when the desired body condition has beenachieved.
DESIGNED FOR:
- Horses lacking appetite and needing topline and extra body condition
- Horses in training as part of controlling starch intake and providing an alternative and safer oil-based energy source
