How to grow healthy young horses with Barastoc Low GI Cube
Just like a growing human, a growing horse needs to be supported with a feed that’s gentle on their stomachs and is packed with healthy minerals. Barastoc Low GI Cube is a low glycaemic horse feed for young and growing horses that is gentle on stomachs, high in fibre, and balanced with organic trace minerals.
According to Dr Clarissa Brown-Douglas of Kentucky Equine Research, the world leader in equine nutrition research, Barastoc Low GI Cube has been formulated to provide multiple benefits. “It provides low glycaemic energy sources, and a high amount of digestible fibre, plus a really good amino acid and trace mineral profile for young, growing horses,” notes Brown-Douglas.
Barastoc Low GI Cube is also formulated with KER Buffered Mineral Complex TM (BMC), which offers multiple benefits. BMC is a revolutionary new ingredient that is research-proven to improve bone mineral density in weanlings.
“This is profound,” Brown-Douglas states. “It’s the first ingredient of its type to scientifically improve bone mineral content.” Not only that, but BMC provides gastric and hindgut buffering for improved gut health.
Brown-Douglas also notes that it’s important to consider developmental problems with young horse’s skeletons, particularly Development Orthopaedic Disease (DOD). “Research has shown that using a feed that contains lower glycaemic energy sources, such as Barastoc Low GI Cube, may reduce the risk of developing DOD,” she says.
Barastoc Low GI Cube is also enriched with super fibre sources, lower starch and added oils that ensure slow-release energy for good digestive health.
Try Barastoc Low GI Cube to create the perfect balance for a healthy, growing horse.
