Equine nutrition and diet evaluations compare your horse's current diet against their requirements based on breed, age, workload, and any underlying health conditions to ensure that your horse's nutritional requirements are being fulfilled. A balanced diet is the foundation for optimum equine health and performance ability.
Scientific diet evaluation
All ages, all breeds, all disciplines. Equine nutrition is more than just what to feed your horse. Each horse has different nutritional needs, so every horse can benefit from an in-depth dietary analysis to ensure their specific needs are being met:
Competition horses in every discipline
Stallions, broodmares and foals
Growing horses
Pleasure horses
Senior horses
Special health considerations such as PPID/Cushings, lamintis, insulin resistance (IR), EMS, PSSM, COPD, ulcers, arthritis, choke, colic, EPSM, ER, etc.
