Which supplement to use?

I was just looking at your website and you have a new supplement for horses on grass hay and pasture. My 2 horses are on both right now until winter comes (no grain or supplements then either). My question is which supplement: Glanzen Complete or this new High Point should I think about using?
Thanks, Deb

Re: Which supplement to use?

Hi Deb,

The Glanzen Complete would be a better choice for your situation because it is flaxseed meal based, which the High Point for Grass diets is not. Horses really benefit from omega 3 fatty acids for a lot of reasons and there are none left in hay.

All the best,
