FOR THE LOVE OF HORSES

THEIR DEVOTED OWNERS TOO

Roughage, such as hay and grass, forms the basis of every horse’s diet and is essential to their health and well-being. This is because a horse’s digestive system is adapted to process small amounts of high-fiber food, such as roughage, throughout the day. This type of horse feed not only provides energy, but also helps promote healthy intestinal flora and prevent digestive problems, such as colic. In addition, roughage encourages prolonged chewing, which is important for saliva production and helps control acidity in a horse’s stomach.
