| Horse supplements are vitamins and minerals for horses. They are sold in liquid, powder, or soft chew forms and can be mixed with horse feed. They complement your horse’s regular diet of gain, hay, water, and salt. Horse supplements are made according to a horse's specific needs. They are given to pregnant mares, show or race horses, and growing horses. Protein, electrolytes, and joint lubricants are found in horse supplements, as they help strengthen a race horse's muscles, joints, and tissues and replenish the lost electrolytes of a sedentary horse living in a warm, humid climate. Horse supplements also contain vitamins A, D, E, K, B, C, phosphorous, calcium, selenium, iodine, salt, and iron to combat vitamin deficiency, support the metabolism, and replenish the lost vitamins and minerals due to illness. Horse owners are advised to consult their trusted veterinarians first before giving horse supplements to their horses. |
