- It combines the benefits of a feed balancer and a joint
supplement. Highly cost-effective.
- It is the first and only feed balancer to include the
scientifically recommended rate of glucosamine to help maintain
mobility. This rate is 10 grams of glucosamine/500kg horse/day.
- TopSpec Senior Feed Balancer is a very palatable
‘Non-Heating’ feed that contains several
supplements that provide the levels of micronutrients and digestive
aids normally only found in high quality specialised supplements.
- When TopSpec Senior Feed Balancer is fed there is therefore
no need to add any further supplements.
- This superb specification allows elderly horses to utilise
far more nutrients from the forage and straights in their diet, which
often means that their hard feed intake can be reduced with many
resulting benefits. A complete specification is freely available.
TopSpec
Senior Feed Balancer contains the following features: -
- Optimum levels of all the micronutrients needed to balance
feed and improve its utilisation.
- Constructive levels of amino acids, complex carbohydrates,
anti-oxidants, glucosamine and MSM to help maintain healthy joints.
- Powerful levels of vitamin E and selenium to act as
anti-oxidants (neutralizing the harmful presence of excess free
radicals which may speed the ageing process) together with high quality
protein, optimise muscle development and function.
- Two yeast products to help fibre digestion and maintain a
healthy immune system.
- Maintenance levels of biotin, plus associated nutrients, to
help preserve good hoof quality.
- Generous levels of B vitamins to compensate for decreased
production in the hindgut when fibre intake is limited.
- Organic chelated minerals for improved availability.
- Effective levels of protein, vitamins, minerals and trace
elements to maintain strong bone.
- Many factors to help calm certain horses.
- Soya oil and good quality protein. It is formulated without
cereal grains and provides only low levels of sugar and starch. It is
important to keep the starch intake of elderly horses relatively low
when fibre intake is compromised, in order to maintain healthy hindgut
function and avoid loose droppings.
The advantages of feeding TopSpec Senior Feed Balancer are: -
- To help to maintain mobility.
- To help maintain muscle development, topline and condition,
these often start to decline as horses’ age.
- To help maintain a healthy immune system.
- The formula includes a highly available source of vitamin C
to help maintain healthy lung tissue.
- An effective way to optimise digestive efficiency for
elderly horses.
- To promote a supple skin and a shiny coat.
- To balance the diet for elderly horses fed forage-only, or
forage plus straights, or forage plus low levels of compound feed (i.e.
when compounds are fed at less than the full recommended rate).
- Ideal for elderly horses unable to eat optimum levels of
forage. When mixed with TopSpec FibrePlus
a superb complete feed is formed, replacing all forage if necessary.
- Beneficial for elderly horses suffering from stress e.g.
during changes in routine, given less than
ideal turnout time, losing a companion, recovering from illness, and
during or after a course of antibiotics.
TopSpec Senior Feed Balancer is available
in 20kg sacks, which last a 500kg horse for 40 days or a 250kg pony for
80 days.
