Horse Vitamins & Supplements

A feed supplement is anything fed to a horse in addition to a natural diet of forage, including grain, including any additional nutrients such as certain vitamins and minerals and additional protein that might be lacking in the diet. Horses involved in strenuous activities might benefit from some types of supplements, since high-stress performance depletes some of the body's nutrients and mineral stores more rapidly than a natural diet of forages can replace them. A wise use of certain supplements could also benefit horses with various health problems.
