Performance Lite Feed Balancer is designed for good-doers in hard work that need their weight controlled, perhaps because of good grazing/forage quality. It is very important that this group of horses and ponies receive their full requirements of vitamins and minerals to support hard work.
Performance Lite Feed Balancer allows performance horses and ponies to receive these micronutrients in a small amount of very low-calorie feed.
Performance Lite Feed Balancer is a very palatable'Non-Heating'*feed that contains a multi-supplement including the levels of micronutrients normally only found in high quality specialised supplements. When TopSpec Performance Lite Feed Balancer is fed there is therefore usually no need to add any further vitamin and mineral supplements, other than salt and/or electrolytes for sweating horses, and a nutraceutical joint supplement if required. A complete specification is freely available.
*'Non-Heating' this term indicates that this product will not promote excitable behaviour in a horse.
Using Performance Lite Feed Balancer will not promote significant weight gain, but will help to maintain healthy enzyme function, support bone strength, greatly improve hoof quality and produce a supple skin with an exceptionally shiny coat. It may also lead to relaxed behaviour in certain horses and ponies and will help to maintain a healthy immune system. Optimum nutrition will contribute to improved performance.
Performance Lite Feed Balancer is the perfect product for hard-working horses and ponies fed forage only, plus salt/electrolytes. It suitable for hard-working horses and ponies on a restricted diet to limit calorie intake. We recommend TopSpec Lite Feed Balancer for good-doers in light work.
