Naturally high in oil and fibre, but low in starch, EQUI-JEWEL is a versatile and concentrated source of energy for horses of all ages and activity levels. \u003cbr\u003eSaracen EQUI-JEWEL is designed to increase the energy density (calories) of a ration helping to maintain condition on '\"poor-doers\" and provide a energy in a slow-release form to horses with elevated demands such as the hard working competiton horse.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEQUI-JEWEL is very compatible for use alongside other feeds such as Re-Level®, Enduro-100 and Show Improver Pencils if additional calories are required for the level of work being done.\u003cbr\u003eCalcium carbonate is added to EQUI-JEWEL® to balance the calcium phosphorous ratio of rice bran.\u003cbr\u003eBenefits to the competiton horse\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn addition to EQUI-JEWEL  delivering all the benefits of vegetable oils but in a pelleted form, scientific research has proven its superiority in optimising performance in the athletic horse. During strenuous exercise, horses fed EQUI-JEWEL had lower lactic acid levels than horses fed corn oil, optimising their stamina. Also, when EQUI-JEWEL was used as a replacement for vegetable oil in the horse's feed, studies have shown the subjects displayed lower heart rates and subsequent shorter recovery periods after strenuous excercise.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe essential fatty acids contained in EQUI-JEWEL are necessary for healthy coat and skin condition. Horses receiving EQUI-JEWEL will quickly exhibit stunning coat gloss and bloom. This feature of EQUI-JEWEL is ideal for show horses, show ponies and horses that are being prepared for public auction as they are scrutinised for coat and body condition. As a result, EQUI-JEWEL is very popular among professional sales consignors and show horse producers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFeeding Oil\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOil is an excellent way of providing additional calories required for improving condition without actually increasing the horse’s meal size. Oil is also a ‘cool’ source of energy and up to a quarter of a pint can be fed per day. However, because of the way in which oil is digested and metabolised it increases the number of free radicals that are produced in the body. Free radicals can damage healthy living cells. To protect the cells from oxidative damage, antioxidants, such as vitamin E, must also be included in the diet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere are high fat supplements on the feed market today which are pre-supplemented, taking care of the increased requirement for extra vitamin E when feeding diets high in oil such as EQUI-JEWEL.\u003cbr\u003eThe addition of fat supplements to a ration can eliminate the risk of laminitis, colic, diarrhoea and exertional myopathies often associated with excessive concentrate intake and minimal forage intake. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOil    18.0%\u003cbr\u003eProtein    12.5%\u003cbr\u003eFibre    13.0%\u003cbr\u003eDigestible Energy    18.0 MJ\/kg\u003cbr\u003eCalcium    2.25%\u003cbr\u003ePhosphorous    1.5%\u003cbr\u003eVitamin E    440 IU\/kg\u003cbr\u003eSelenium    1.0 mg\/kg\u003cbr\u003eOil    18.0%\u003cbr\u003eProtein    12.5%\u003cbr\u003eFibre    13.0%\u003cbr\u003eDigestible Energy    18.0 MJ\/kg\u003cbr\u003eCalcium    2.25%\u003cbr\u003ePhosphorous    1.5%\u003cbr\u003eVitamin E    440 IU\/kg\u003cbr\u003eSelenium    1.0 mg\/kg\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eINGREDIENTS\u003cbr\u003e•    Stabilized rice bran\u003cbr\u003e•    Calcium carbonate\u003cbr\u003e•    Vitamin E\u003cbr\u003e•    Selenium\u003cbr\u003e•    E280 Proprionic Acid\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFEEDING RECOMMENDATION\u003cbr\u003eEQUI-JEWEL® can be fed at a rate of 500g-1kg per day to achieve appropriate body condition, up to a maximum of 1.5kg per day when extra conditioning is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe degree of supplementation required is dependent on the desired calorie intake.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Saracen","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56996408525132,"sku":"13769","price":49.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1004\/6180\/5900\/files\/1763569186-66821700.jpg?v=1773681266","url":"https:\/\/www.burnhills.com\/products\/saracen-equi-jewel-20kg-conditioning-horse-feed","provider":"Burnhills","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
