Horse Health Starts with the Gut: The Role of Proper Feeding and Synbiotic Supplements

Horse Health: From Proper Care to Feeding Innovations

Keeping and breeding horses requires daily, meticulous, and demanding work. Caring for these animals involves a comprehensive set of measures designed to provide them with maximum comfort and protect them from the risk of various diseases.

Particular attention should be given to proper selection of feed and water, planning a feeding schedule, and creating a well-balanced diet.

The diet should be high-quality and balanced. In addition to natural forages (grass and hay), it should include grain (oats or barley), vegetables, fruit, mineral supplements, and compound feed.

The diet must be adjusted depending on the animal's age and physical condition, the season, sex, and other factors.

Poor nutrition, environmental stress, and other stressors cause digestive disorders and metabolic imbalances, creating significant problems for horse owners and their animals.

Special attention should be paid to hygienic grooming of the skin and coat to remove dirt and dandruff using a brush and curry comb. A horse should be groomed as needed, but typically no less than once a day.

Hoof care: foreign objects trapped in the hoof (stones, twigs, grass particles) should be regularly removed.

Do not forget about the horse's tail and mane: combing the tail and mane is recommended as needed, but not necessarily every day.

Regular veterinary check-ups are essential. Timely vaccinations help prevent diseases, regular deworming protects against parasites, and dental visits prevent tooth problems.
