Omega Nibblers 3.5 Lb Horse Treat

Made from stabilized fortified ground flaxseed and natural ingredients that taste great – a worthy treat for your horse! Your horse is your partner, in sport, in leisure and just in life. To keep him at his peak performance and optimal health, a solid nutritional foundation is key. Ideally, horses are able to graze fresh, growing grasses which most closely mimics their natural diet. But that may not always be possible and we may need to supply some of the missing ingredients in today’s diets and provide more functional foods. One component of a horse’s diet that is often underfed are the omega three fatty acids. While more prevalent in fresh forages, harvested forages are lower in omega three fatty acids due to their more advanced maturity. Obviously grasses and legumes have to grow to a sufficient height in order to be harvested while foraging patterns of horses show great preference for shorter, less mature plants. In the modern horse diet, they may be out of balance in comparison to omega 6 fatty acids that are more prevalent in cereal grains or other oils. An imbalance of omega 6 to omega three may lead the horse to experience more inflammation, chronic pain and allergen responses. Many horseman are looking for a more natural alternative to pain relief, or even prevention than just pharmaceutical intervention. Supplementing omega 3’s can help replace the pro-inflammatory omega 6 fatty acids in your horse’s tissues. Less inflammation with just the normal wear and tear of life can mean a happier, more functional horse.
