TopSpec Senior Balancer

TopSpec Senior Feed Balancer is an ideal balancer for stiff elderly horses, particularly if they are lacking muscle development, topline and condition. It combines the benefits of a conditioning feed balancer and a joint supplement, in a highly cost-effective way. 

Senior 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 high levels of micronutrients and digestive aids. It is important to keep the sugar and starch intake of elderly horses low when the level of fully chewed fibre reaching the hindgut is compromised, to help maintain healthy hindgut function and avoid loose droppings.

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 for elderly horses 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, often lacking in elderly horses.
• High levels of vitamin E and selenium to act as antioxidants, helping to maintain healthy cell function and, together with good quality protein, optimising healthy muscle development and function within age constraints. Vital for horses on high oil diets.
• Effective levels of bioavailable vitamin C to help maintain healthy airways.
• The level of biotin (15mg/500kg horse/day) that is scientifically proven to improve hoof quality, plus optimum levels of all the other nutrients known to benefit hoof quality. Certain of these nutrients will also help to maintain a supple skin and promote an exceptionally shiny coat.
• Effective levels of protein, vitamins, minerals, and trace elements to help maintain strong bone.
• Copper, zinc, B vitamins and associated nutrients to optimise healthy haemoglobin levels in blood.
• Generous levels of B vitamins to compensate for decreased production in the hindgut when the level of fully-chewed fibre reaching the hindgut is compromised.
• Generous levels of prebiotic MOS (mannan oligosaccharides) to support the yeast, and help maintain a healthy immune system alongside vitamins A, C, D and E.
• Organic chelated minerals for improved availability.
• Many factors, including yeast and B vitamins, to help relax behaviour in responsive horses.
