FAST FIBRE: HIGH IN FIBRE, LOW IN SUGAR AND STARCH
Part of Allen & Page’s hugely popular Barley and Molasses Free Range, Fast Fibre is a high fibre feed (26% fibre), with a combined sugar and starch level of only 7.5%, making it suitable for horses or ponies prone to laminitis. It is recommended that
horses and ponies prone to laminitis should not be fed a diet containing more than 10% starch and sugar combined. Formulated without barley
and molasses, Fast Fibre is balanced with vitamins and minerals and contains prebiotics for healthy digestion. Fast Fibre soaks in just 60 seconds and with its high fibre content, it is particularly useful for horses and ponies with dental problems and can also be fed as a partial hay replacer.
