Jody Hartstone from Hartstone Equestrian shares her love for MITAVITE® MUNGA®, a must-have for her competition horses:

"One of the go-to feeds I absolutely love for the competition horses is MITAVITE® MUNGA® – it's been a firm favourite of mine since its inception. It’s a low-starch, grain-free feed that’s perfect for horses prone to ulcers or those needing a cooler energy source. Plus, it has a low feed rate, which makes it easier to transport when we’re on the road for a week at a time. The delicious muesli formulation is a hit, even with the fussiest eaters! And with added BONAFIDE® to support recovery, MITAVITE® MUNGA® is a no-brainer for my horses."

From better digestion to top-tier recovery, MITAVITE® MUNGA® truly delivers!

Did you know? Not all muesli feeds are "sweet" or "hot" feeds!

Muesli refers to the texture of the feed, not its energy levels. What makes a feed high energy or cool depends entirely on the ingredients.

For example:
💛MITAVITE® SUSTAINA® is a high-energy sweet feed, packed with cereal grains like corn and barley.
💛MITAVITE® MUNGA® on the other hand, is a cool muesli feed with no whole cereal grains.

Every horse is unique, so choosing the right feed is all about their needs. Curious to learn more? Explore our mueslis here: https://mitavite.com/collections/feeds?_=pf&pf_t_feed_type=feed-type%3AMuesli

🌞 Senior Horse Nutrition Tips for Summer 🌞

Our beloved golden oldies need a little extra care as the weather heats up! Here’s how you can keep them happy and healthy:

✅ Soak or wet feeds to boost hydration, reduce dust and help prevent choke. MITAVITE® GUMNUTS® easily soaks into a soft mash—perfect for senior horses with poor teeth.
✅ Provide salt daily to encourage drinking:
• 30–40g for 400–500kg horses
• 15–20g for 200–300kg horses
• 5–10g for 100kg ponies
✅ Boost calories for seniors struggling with weight—add oil, a fibre supplement, or a conditioning pellet from the MITAVITE® range.
✅ Lucerne hay is your friend! It’s nutrient-dense and provides quality fibre as grass dries off.

A little extra care, combined with MITAVITE's nourishing feeds, will keep your older horse at their best right through the warmer weather. 💛

𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗗𝗼 𝗜 𝗞𝗻𝗼𝘄 𝗜𝗳 𝗜’𝗺 𝗙𝗲𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗘𝗻𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵?
Is your horse getting the right amount of feed? The answer depends on their weight, workload, and body condition. Use a weight tape and assess their condition regularly.

Horses require a minimum of 1.5% of their body weight in roughage per day—for a 500 kg horse, this equates to 7.5 kg of roughage daily. If your horse is underweight, then we recommend providing ad lib or constant access to roughage.

When it comes to hard feed you want to select an option that is going to maintain your horse’s optimum condition. This will depend on their metabolism. If you horse is a ‘poor doer’, you want to select a feed with a higher feeding rate to get in those extra calories. If your horse is a ‘good doer’ choose an option with a low feeding rate.

Be sure to weigh your feeds and use the feed guide on the bag to ensure your horse is meeting their daily nutritional needs. MITAVITE®'s complete feeds take the guesswork out, offering balanced nutrition in every scoop.

How do you feed your horse? Show us your routine and enter our competition for your chance to win! Tag us and use , and let us know how you keep your horse in top shape.

We all like to see a nicely conditioned horse, but too much feed or too many supplements can lead to health issues such as weight gain and nutrient imbalances. There’s also the risk of equine metabolic syndrome, laminitis and joint issues. Adjust what and how much you are feeding based on your horse’s condition and workload—you may need to remove your horse from pasture, restrict their grazing time, or increase their exercise routine.

MITAVITE®'s complete feeds simplify feeding by providing balanced nutrition, reducing the need for excess supplementation. Just add roughage!
