Whether horse or human ...

"We're seeing a widespread epidemic where we're the most overfed and undernourished people on the planet. And from that, we see such an increase in epidemics of diabetes, heart conditions, of respiratory illness, of immune deficiencies.

So, what happens to a population when they’re stressed, they're not physically active, they’re fed a high-sugar and ultra-processed diet? They get fat. They get sick. They become diabetic.

If a body is undernourished – and by that I don’t mean starved; I mean lack of actual healthy nutrient ‘nourishment’ – it doesn't matter how many herbs and tinctures we throw at them. If the body isn’t being nourished with the basics of a healthy, whole foods diet, appropriate to the species, then those herbs can only go so far in helping to resolve their conditions."

Modern farming practices over the last half-century have significantly reduced soil quality ...

• which has profoundly reduced nutrient levels in plants/crops.
• which has profoundly affected the nutrient balance of what we feed our horse.
  

Everything starts with the gut, and how we feed our horses. Ultra-processed food, changes to soil, environmental toxins ... all have collectively caused an epidemic of nutrient deficiencies.

Read how to dump the junk, feed your horse how they're meant to be fed, and close the nutrient gap.

A quick disclaimer 

Rest assured we're not in any allegiance with any feed company - there are no backhanders, benefits, nice lunches or special deals for us. Everything we recommend has simply been based on nearly 20-years of dedicated study and research, and always, always for the benefit of the horse. 

So why have we put together this very long section? Because it's so incredibly important - everything that's going wrong with our horses starts with their gut health and how/what we feed them. And ... it's also an absolute minefield out there!

There's so much feed spin and misinformation, sadly driven in part by backhanders and profits, and it's all too easy for us to get sucked into it. But it's making our horses sick.

Feed our horses how they're meant to be fed, and they won't get sick. It really is as simple as this!
