ADVANCED LOW NSC BALANCER
A cereal grain-free balancer pellet, designed for metabolic horses and ponies, formulated to be fed at a low daily rate.
Formulation Highlights:
- SMALL FEED, SAFE RESULTS: Meta Safe® delivers a concentrated blend of essential vitamins, minerals and amino acids at a low daily feeding rate. This reduces the amount of hard feed required to meet daily nutrient needs, making Meta Safe® the safe choice for good doers or overweight horses.
- RECOMMENDED FOR LAMINITIS-PRONE HORSES: With a maximum starch content of just 1.5%, Meta Safe® provides advanced daily nutrition in a concentrated pellet. The small serve and low starch content supports horses prone to or recovering from laminitis, while meeting their nutritional needs.
- DIGESTIVE HEALTH: The low starch, high fibre, cereal grain-free formula in Meta Safe® also has added prebiotics to promote natural digestive function, support hindgut health and assist overall nutrient absorption.
- BONAFIDE® BONE SUPPORT: Restricted pasture access, common in laminitis management, can limit Vitamin K intake. Meta Safe® includes Quinaquanone® (Vitamin K1 and K2) in Bonafide®, which helps activate bone formation proteins to support health during recovery.
