Farriers Formula Hoof Supplement- 5kg Tub

Farrier’s Formula^® is a hoof supplement that provides nutrients such as phospholipids, omega fatty acids, vitamins, minerals, and important amino acids. These nutrients enable horses to build strong connective tissue with proteins that are important for healthy hoof structure and growth.

Over 30 years of research, clinical trials and field testing validate the effectiveness of Farrier’s Formula^®.

Farriers Formula should be fed to horses and ponies with weak hoof structure that leads to hoof wall problems such as quarter cracks, toe cracks, sand cracks, brittle hoof walls and hoof wall separation. These hoof wall defects often create an environment ideal for the microbial invasions associated with white line disease and crumbling horn. Also addressed are horses with thin soft soles that are susceptible to sudden lameness from bruising, and horses recovering from laminitis or founder whose cohesive bond between the outer hoof wall and the coffin bone has been damaged.

Farrier’s Formula^® hoof supplement supplies the nutrients required for building strong hoof capsule connective tissues in the correct balance and ratio. It also promotes strong and fast growth of the hoof wall, sole, frog, and heel. Farrier’s Formula^® provides proper nutrition to “grow out” wall cracks, strengthen and thicken the hoof wall and sole, reduce the likelihood of microbial invasions and bruising, and assist with laminitis recovery.

Farrier’s Formula^® also promotes a glossy more deeply colored coat and strengthened connective tissues of the joints and ligaments.

Farrier’s Formula does not contain added sugar or molasses. The daily intake of starches, carbohydrates (WSC and NFC), and sugars from Farrier’s Formula is very low, and is insignificant relative to the starch, sugar and carbohydrate intake in the total diet.

The iron content in Farrier’s Formula is derived from the pellet conditioner in the form of iron oxide. The intestinal absorption of iron from iron oxide is minimal; therefore Farrier’s Formula provides a minimal and insignificant amount of absorbable iron. If iron supplementation is desirable another form of iron such as iron proteinates, or other bio-available sources of iron should be utilized.

Farrier’s Formula does not contain added potassium; however potassium is contained in minor concentrations with some of the ingredients such as alfalfa. Considering the small amount of product, the total level of potassium intake from Farrier’s Formula relative to the intake in the total diet is not significant.
