How It Works
Equine diets consisting primarily of hay lack the necessary vitamins, minerals, and amino acids for optimal equine health. Dr. Thornley’s™ Hay Balancer™ is a highly-palatable, pelleted supplement developed by practicing equine veterinarians and nutritionists to correct these imbalances and be the only supplement needed to balance your horse’s nutrition for optimal health. Dr. Thornley’s™ Hay Balancer™ comes in two formulas to support both alfalfa and grass hay diets.
Dr. Thornley’s™ Hay Balancer™ offers the following benefits to all classes of horses, including adults, pregnant and lactating mares, and foals:
- Supports optimal growth, and may lower incidence of developmental orthopedic disease like epiphysitis, OCD, joint defects, etc.
- Provides essential amino acids critical to muscle, soft tissue, hoof and hair growth
- Supplies prebiotics to promote improved gut health, digestion and feed conversion
- Supports improved stamina, muscle mass retention, recovery time, and overall performance
- Provides complete supplemental nutrition without unwanted carbohydrates, protein or fat
- Balances minerals for proper bone and joint health
