Product Details

A multi-mineral, effective nutritional solution, providing the commonly deficient levels of essential key minerals, trace elements and proteins (amino acids), known to be lacking in our UK grazing, as required by the equine body to balance the body's chemistry for normal function. Formulated to the NRC Guidelines.


Key Features

✔️No synthetic minerals, and there's a very good reason why. (Click on our Blog ' Minerals, and it's all change ' for the latest science).

✔️ No added iron . Any iron present is completely natural, predominantly coming from the magnesium oxide and monosodium phosphate, therefore in the unabsorbable oxide form. See our Blog The Role of Iron in the Equine Diet , and Horse Journal's Iron in the Equine Diet for further evidence.

✔️NO fillers - no molasses, stabilisers, binders, grains, preservatives, and non-GM.

✔️Formulated to the NRC Guidelines.

✔️Certified to UFAS, FEMAS, BETA NOPS, and ISO 22000

NOTE: EquiVita is a nutritional, functional food supplement and not veterinary medicine. For more information, refer to Dr Kellon's Horse Sense - 'Nutrition is not 'Alternative' Therapy .

Feed Guide

  • 13g/100kg bodyweight daily, i.e. 65g daily for the average 500kg horse.
  • If scoop requested (see checkout): 1-level scoop = 83-grams; ¾ -scoop = 65g for the average 500kg horse.

  • 1-year shelf life.
  • A 5kg pouch will last a 500kg horse 74-days.

Analytical Constituents: Calcium 0.0%, Phosphorous 6.9%, Sodium 5.8%, Lysine 13.9%, Methionine 4.1%, Acid Insoluble Ash 3.6%.

Additives (Per Kg): Vitamins: Vitamin E (all rac-alpha tocopheryl acetate) (3a700) 27972 mg/kg

Trace Elements:(Sodium Selenium 3b801)14mg/kg, Copper (Copper (II) sulphate pentahydrate 3b405) 5594mg/kg, Zinc (Zinc sulphate monohydrate 3b605) 16783 mg/kg.

Analysis: Crude Protein (19.3%) Crude Fibre (0.6%) Total Oil (4.26%), Ash (29.2%)

* All-rac-a-Tocopheryl Acetate is the synthetic form of Vitamin E. Alpha-tocopheryl acetate is more resistant to oxidation during storage than unesterified tocopherols. The bioavailability of alpha-tocopherol from alpha-tocopheryl acetate is roughly equivalent to that of free alpha-tocopherol. See here for the different forms of vit.E.

Recommended

  • During winter, the essential fatty acids, omegas 3 and 6, are depleted in winter grazing and hay, so horses not on fresh grass will have a dietary deficiency of omega-3. We recommend adding micronised Linseed to support this deficiency. Feed rates detailed on our Linseed product page. Alternatively, see our VitaComplete , our 3-in-1 mineral solution, which includes the Linseed RDA.
  • Salt always needs to be fed. As per the NRC (2007) guidelines, a 500kg horse has a daily requirement of at least 10g sodium and 40g chloride on a cool day doing no work, and at least double this on a hot day/in hard work/sweating. Alternatively, as above, our VitaComplete 3-in-1 mineral solution includes 10g/day certified organic coarse sea salt.

Reviews

  • 30.9.24 I’m really pleased with the balancer. I was advised to make the switch by my equine podiatrist.I have one horse transitioning to barefoot and one recovering from laminitis. Both are good doers. My mare is particularly full of vigour, her hooves are growing beautifully and her weight seems more stable. Many thanks, Eve
  • 14.8.24 The only natural supplement that my girls find palatable, and I’ve tried a few! It has seen both of them coming out of shoes to being barefoot, keeps my 24 y/o looking tip top in the show ring, and helps my TB maintain a healthy weight living out 24/7. So Thank you! JC
  • 19.6.24 My horses have never looked so good being on your products. EJ
  • 12.2.24- I wanted to give you some feedback on your mallenders and sallenders regime. I took the plunge as I was seeing her getting worse than ever this year. In just a month I am half way through and it has cleared up on her back legs completely and on the front there is no red sore skin anymore. I am so happy I can brush her legs without her trying to move her leg or stomp her feet. Thank you so much. Sarah K.
  • 22.6.23- Thank you so much for your wonderful service. We love the new packaging of the 5kg bags . It will make it much easier to handle at the stables. Our 29yr old Dales pony ‘Magic’ looks magnificent and we are sure it’s because of EquiVita. Best wishes, Tony & Vickie
  • 27.9.22- Brilliant stuff, the shine on my horse since he's started it has been amazing. Looking forward to seeing the results of them being on it longter. Leann
  • 28.4.22- Since I’ve been using your balancer my boy's split in one foot is finally growing out. It’s been there a few years, no change with (two other well-known mineral balancer companies). JW
  • 8.2.22- Just to let you know, I'm really happy with the supplement - my mare always gets compliments on her 'mint' feet from farriers! And sometimes she looks so shiny that I wonder if there's something wrong! I never groom her, just lots of scratches, and brush off the saddle area if I ride. I've recently acquired two yearling minis, can't wait to get them on the same road. Julia B.
  • 3.4.19- You always provide excellent service and your products are I believe the best around. Maddie my rising 5 IDSH had been having EquiVita since September last year just after I bought her and she has come through the winter in excellent health and condition, nice and lean coming into the spring, though she isn't doing much work as yet due to her age. Maddie is barefoot and your products have played a role in her having excellent horn quality. Best regards, Mandy
  • 20.7.18- Just wanted to give you an update on my mare since you kindly 're-planned' her diet! Since been on the Equivita balancer just 10weeks, her feet are rock hard, maintained the shape & strength even with this persistant dry spell were having. She can walk on any surface including stony tracks, & is self trimming too. Thank you so much for your advice, Clare & Stardust
