Why do Norvite Equine Nutrition use Chelated Minerals?

Chelated minerals are the gold standard for equine supplements as are more easily absorbed, they are bound in proteins to improve absorption into the digestive tract.

Chelated minerals are very expensive to produce, so many companies don’t use them in their supplements. As we manufacture our minerals entirely in our bespoke plant in Aberdeenshire, we can control the quality of raw ingredients and ensure that only the best are used.

Studies have shown that horses in work have an increased requirement for some minerals, and a diet containing chelated minerals will benefit equine athletes.

The use of chelated minerals in equine diets results in reduced stress, disease and injury in performance horses, reduced bone abnormalities in growing horses and improved hoof and hair condition.

You can take a horse to water but you can’t make it drink…….or can you?

Water is the most important nutrient!

Water buffets can be a great way to increase your horse’s water intake - adding fenugreek, apple, carrot, mint, turmeric or even nettles to the water bucket or trough can tempt a horse to drink.

What is your horse’s favourite flavour? 🍏🥕🌱🌿

Did you know?

In addition to the nutritional benefits of NEOflo Equine, we are very proud that our process is Zero Waste as both co-products of the crushing process have high nutritional value. In addition, the facility has a substantial array of solar panels meaning that it is powered by the sun - combined with the exceptionally short supply chain, using locally grown crops, NEOflo Equine is a highly sustainable and nutritious supplement for your horse.

We are delighted to start our feature with the lovely Daniel!!

Daniel - 15hh, 15 year old Cob
Likes hacking, Jumping, XC and competing at riding club level.
Owned by Carol Cocker; shared with Laura Dixon

Daniel had lost condition and was lacking in topline and shine. We completely changed his diet in March to a cereal free diet balanced with Norvite Advanced Minerals and NEOflo Equine oil for sugar and starch free energy. He is fed Allen & Page Fast Fibre, Spillers Happy Hoof Molasses Free, Norvite Equine Nutrition Advanced Vits & Mins and NEOflo Equine oil. His exercise regime has not been altered.

Laura says, “Everyone has commented on how good he looks! His topline, muscle tone and shine are a very noticeable change but the biggest difference for me is his willingness to work - his energy levels are so much better. Also saving money is a big bonus too.”

Fibre is an essential part of your horse’s diet, making up a significant portion if not all of their daily intake. Horses are designed to eat a primarily fibre-based diet, with over 65% of their digestive system involved in fibre digestion. It’s recommended that fibre should always be offered at no less than 1.5% of a horse’s bodyweight on a dry matter basis.

Overall, fibre can provide up to 70% of a horse’s energy needs, especially when it comes from highly digestible sources. Fibre is important for the health of the horse’s digestive system and overall well-being, so ensuring you feed a good quality fibre source is paramount.

Balancing fibre with a vitamin and mineral source is important and Norvite Vits and Mins, a balancer of your choice or even a pasture lick ensure your horse’s health is optimised.
