How to Find the Right Supplement to Fix Your Horse’s Diet
You’ve discovered that your horse’s diet is lacking, but how do you find the right supplement to fix it?
Every time you walk into a feed store, it’s impossible not to notice how many different supplements are available. Online, it’s even more so. Hundreds of brands, thousands of choices – it’s overwhelming even to the most experienced horse owners. How can you possibly choose the right one?
How to Choose the Right Supplement
That’s where FeedXL comes in. FeedXL can not only help identify which nutrients are missing from your horse’s diet, but also provide unbiased help to find the right supplement for your horse. We narrow down the thousands of options to just the few suitable ones that will fill the gaps without creating any excesses, and provide you with a manageable list of appropriate products.
The FeedXL Supplement Finder
Click one simple button in FeedXL and we put the power of our software to work for you. FeedXL searches through every supplement option and puts together a list of supplements for you that will fill all the gaps in your horse’s diet. The list of supplements is complete with the dose needed to fill the gaps and is ranked from best fit down to make it easy to navigate. Plus, it excludes any product that exceeds upper safe limits for any nutrient.
Once you identify deficiencies in the diet:
- Hit the Supplement Finder button.
- Go through the list and find a product from your preferred supplement manufacturer*.
- Put it into the diet at the specified dose; and
- Bingo, balanced diet!
* It is important to remember that FeedXL is only looking at the numbers for a supplement and is not considering ingredient quality or quality assurance standards of the manufacturers. So you still need to do your own research on the options given to you to make sure the supplement is made from high quality ingredients under reliable QA protocols.
The Supplement Finder feature of FeedXL is available in our Standard, Premium and Advisor plans.
