SPOTLIGHT ON T​HE BARNYARD

Commercial feeds do contain sodium but not at sufficient levels for your horses health . EVERY HORSE NEEDS ADDED SALT. Whether it is for well functioning nervous system, muscles .transporting nutrients across cell walls or regulating blood pressure and body  pH,  salt is needed. Deficiencies can result in poor PROTEIN and ENERGY metabolism which leads to weigh loss and poorer health over time. Water at all times is important with salt supplementation to eliminate excess salt from the body. Salt is not stored in the body so daily supplementation is required.
