The Hidden Sugar Danger Threatening Your Horse's Health

So what do leading vets recommend? A Sugar-Smart Approach

Now, I'm not saying you need to lock your horse in a stall and feed them nothing but hay.

(In fact, that would cause a whole other set of problems!)

But there are some simple steps you can take to protect your horse from the hidden dangers of sugar:

1. Rethink your feed: Most horses don't need as much concentrated feed as they're getting. For a 500 kg horse in light work? Less than 1 kg of feed per day is plenty.
2. Manage pasture time: Use a grazing muzzle or limit grazing time, especially in spring and fall when grass sugar content is highest.
3. Choose treats wisely: Opt for low-sugar treats, or better yet, use praise and scratches as rewards.
4. Keep them moving: Regular exercise helps regulate insulin levels and burn excess calories.
5. Monitor body condition: You should be able to feel (but not see) your horse's ribs. If you can't, it's time to reassess their diet.

The Game-Changer: Steady&Stable

Now, I know making these changes can feel overwhelming.

That's why we developed Steady&Stable.

It's not a magic pill. (Those don't exist, no matter what anyone tells you.)

But it is a scientifically-formulated supplement designed to support healthy sugar metabolism in horses with natural ingredients.

Ingredients like

• Berberis vulgaris, which has been extensively studied for its potential to support insulin sensitivity…
• Chrysanthellum, which supports healthy liver function and aids in fat breakdown. 
• Milk Thistle, which plays a crucial role in managing fat metabolism by promoting liver health, which in turn enables horses to more effectively process fats and eliminate harmful substances from their bodies.

Steady&Stable can be a powerful ally in your fight against hidden sugars in your horse’s diet.

But remember: It's just one piece of the puzzle.

You still need to tackle the root causes: overfeeding, poor-quality pastures, and lack of exercise.

Your Horse's Health Starts Now

I understand the challenge.

Adjusting your horse's diet and management routine isn't always easy. It takes time, effort, and often, a shift in our long-held beliefs about horse care.

But let's consider this for a moment:

How would you feel if your horse developed laminitis because you didn't take action?

Or if they had to retire early due to obesity-related health issues?

The good news is, you have the power to prevent this.

And it starts with the choices you make today.

So, are you ready to take control of your horse's health?

To protect them from the hidden sugar danger that's threatening their wellbeing?

If so, here's what I want you to do:

1. Take a hard look at your horse's diet. Are they getting too much concentrated feed? Too much pasture time?
2. Implement at least one of the sugar-smart strategies we discussed today.
3. Consider adding Steady&Stable to your horse's regimen to support healthy sugar metabolism for a holistic approach.

Remember, your horse is counting on you to make the right choices for their health.

You've got this. And if you need any help along the way, we're here for you.

Until next time, happy (and healthy) riding!
