🌾Increased chewing = increased saliva:

Muesli feeds encourage your horse to chew each mouthful more, with 1kg of muesli needing an average 900 chews! Increased chewing produces more saliva, which helps with digestion and is vital for buffering the acid in the stomach. A horse actually only produces saliva when they are chewing, not like us, or a dog who just needs to think about food to start drooling. 

🌾Steam Rolled

In our muesli range, all the grains are slow cooked and steam rolled. But what does this mean? The steam rolling process starts the gelatinisation process in grains, which makes them more easily digestible by horses, who otherwise cannot process them most whole grains (oats are the only whole grain a horse can digest.) So this increased digestibility actually improves the energy availability of the grains.

🌾Added molasses

Muesli feeds have added molasses which makes them EXTRA delicious, and great for fussy eaters. Sometimes horses that have been unwell can lose their appetites, so muesli can help them to come back onto their feed. 

🌾Slower feed intake

Because muesli needs to be chewed more, your horse tends to slow down their feed intake, which can help to avoid issues such as choke. 

🌾Added oil

Canola oil is high in omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids. It helps to condition, improve coat health and add shine to your horse, and Omega-3’s have also been linked to reductions in inflammation.

🌾 Fortified with Vitamins & Minerals

Our muesli blends contain an added vitamin & mineral pellet to ensure your horse’s nutritional requirements are met, and added biotin and methionine promote good hoof health and strength.
