Topspec Joint Feed Balancer 15kg

Topspec Joint Feed Balancer 15kg combines Comprehensive Feed Balancer and a joint supplement. It is a superb product for a wide variety of horses, from those on box-rest to those working hard.

Joint Feed Balancer is a very palatable, high protein, cereal-grain-free, low sugar and starch, ‘Non-Heating’ concentrated feed that contains a multi-supplement including the levels of micronutrients and digestive aids normally only found in high quality specialised supplements.

Joint Feed Balancer includes the scientifically/veterinary recommended rate of glucosamine in a daily quantity of feed to support healthy joints, i.e. 10 grams of glucosamine/500kg horse/day. It is also rich in the building blocks for hyaluronic acid (HA) and chondroitin. The complete molecules of HA and chondroitin themselves are too large to be absorbed in any significant quantity from the horse’s gut. These glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) are essential constituents of synovial fluid. High levels of manganese and vitamin C are also included, as they are important for cartilage synthesis. Joint Feed Balancer also contains methionine and other bio-available sources of sulphur, which help to maintain optimum function in tissues such as tendons, ligaments, and muscles. Joint Feed Balancer contains a blend of antioxidants, including vitamins A, C and E to help maintain healthy cell function around the joints.

The superb specification of Joint Feed Balancer allows horses to utilise far more nutrients from the forage and straights/blends in their diet, which usually means that their hard feed intake can be reduced. This benefits digestion and is a more natural way of feeding, leading to a more relaxed horse amongst other benefits.

Further Key Nutritional Facts:-

An effective way to optimise digestive efficiency, and feed economy, for most horses.
A fully comprehensive range of the micronutrients needed to balance feed and improve its utilisation, even in demanding situations.
High levels of good quality protein to provide the building blocks for muscle development and topline.
Powerful levels of vitamin E and selenium, vital antioxidants, to help maintain healthy cell function and, together with good quality protein, support healthy muscle development and function. Vital for horses on high oil diets.
The level of biotin (15mg/500kg horse/day) that is scientifically proven to improve hoof quality, plus the levels of methionine, cysteine, lysine, calcium, zinc, copper, iodine, vitamin A and soya oil known to improve the efficiency of biotin alone. Certain of these nutrients will also help to maintain a supple skin and promote an exceptionally shiny coat.
Effective levels of protein, vitamins, calcium, phosphorous, copper, zinc, and manganese to develop and maintain strong bone.

Generous levels of B vitamins for efficient energy metabolism; vital for horses with compromised hindgut function.
A pure, protected probiotic yeast and prebiotic MOS to create a healthy gut environment and optimise fibre digestibility. The combined effect of these two yeast products is a healthy gut environment with optimised digestive efficiency, i.e. horses gain much more benefit from their diet.
Organic chelated minerals for improved availability.
