Baileys Lo-Cal balancer is the ideal complement to winter pasture and grazing for good-doers, as it provides the essential nutrients likely to be lacking, without the calories associated with a mix or cube. These include quality protein, to provide the building blocks for muscle, skin and hoof and help maintain top line (not fat), plus targeted support for gut health.


Its spectrum of vitamins and minerals includes all those necessary for health and well-being, at levels and in proportions as carefully formulated as those in any broad spectrum or hoof supplement. Baileys Lo-Cal balancer should be fed at recommended levels and can be mixed with as much or as little Baileys Light Chaff as the owner chooses. Light Chaff is a delicious blend of chopped alfalfa and oat straw with a dusting of mint and a dash of soya oil.


For those who like to feed beet pulp but are wary of its calorie content for good-doers or laminitics, soaked Speedi-Beet is also ideal fed with Baileys Lo- Cal balancer. One balancer mug of Speedi-Beet soaked with four mugs of water produces a Stubbs scoop- full for a horse to chew on but still provides fewer calories even than a scoop of Light Chaff.

Next generation joint supplement


A next generation joint supplement with a formulation that is unsurpassed on the market today. Premier Flex HA contains high levels of Glucosamine HCL, Chondroitin Sulphate, MSM, Hyaluronic Acid (HA) and Omega 3. Many products do not include Chondroitin or HA because of the cost of these ingredients (or if they do they are present in tiny quantities), whereas Premier Flex HA includes high levels of both. The combination of ingredients in Premier Flex HA act in synergy to help lubricate the joint and by aiding the production of synovial Fluid (joint oil), help with cartilage composition.


Premier Flex HA was recently independently tested in a study into the effects of equine joint supplements using Templo Motion Analysis. The results were conclusive; supplementing with Premier Flex HA helped increase stride length thereby proving its effectiveness. For more information on the trial visit the Equine Answers website. Premier Flex HA is now the joint supplement of choice for many horse owners, both in the UK and across Europe.
