  • Rich in Phytonutrients: Provides essential nutrients from nature’s bounty, including barks, mosses, roots, and leaves.
  • Mimics Wild Diets: Encourages natural foraging behaviors and offers raw fibre, minerals, and detoxifying compounds.
  • Essential Roughage: A range of raw fibre sources to stimulate digestion.
  • Detoxifying Support: Bitter compounds in leaves and barks aid in gut health and toxin elimination.
  • Natural Forage Variety: Supports metabolic processes and overall vitality.


Important note

WildFed is a nutritional, functional food supplement and not veterinary medicine. For more information, see Dr Kellon's article - Nutrition is not 'Alternative' Therapy .


Details

When horses lived in the wild, they ate a wide range of diverse foods - everything from moss, leaves, nuts, berries, flowers, grains, and barks, to get variety and essential nutrients into their diets to support their metabolism.

Today ? We feed our domesticated horses the same standard diet, grass/hay, day in. day out, which means much of their natural diverse roughage diet is missing. Given the opportunity, any horse would be looking for variety and diversity wherever possible.

The gut system of our modern-day domesticated horse is no different to that of the wild horse from millions of years ago, their digestion being based on the utilisation of different plants, and their natural diet including much more than just grasses - watch any horse enjoying a happy nibble on leaves and branches of various trees.

This not only gives them raw fibre roughage but also important minerals and phytonutrients to naturally support the body's optimal functions, especially detoxification of toxic waste.

Leaves and barks also contain bitter substances which stimulate digestion and support the intestinal environment with their high content of raw fibre.

By feeding only grass and hay, maybe a bit of roughage and a mineral balancer, we're providing the basics, but we're not giving our horse enough plant diversity for their internal engine to fulfill the necessary actions that the body needs to do.

My horse is a true hedge muncher and loves nothing more than rooting around for tasty seasonal snacks so when I saw your wildfed I had to try it for him. I'm very happy in the knowledge that i am helping to fill a natural gap in his usual self selection diet. Thank you for a lovely product. Amy & Sebastian - 2.1.25
