Product Features 

Analysis as Fed

HYGAIN® BALANCED® is a blend of the following quality ingredients:

Soya Bean Meal, Canola Meal, MICRLUPINS®, MICRMAIZE®, MICRWHEAT®, Calcium Carbonate, Di Calcium Phosphate, Magnesium Oxide, Salt, Bio-Mos®, HYGAIN® Vitamin and Chelated Mineral Premix, Bio-Available Selenium, Lysine, Methionine, Natural Vitamin E, Yea Sacc®1026 (APVMA App. No. 40538) and Biotin.

Special ingredients:

Bio-Available Selenium - Selenium acts as an antioxidant to prevent fatty acid oxidation which can cause tissue damage. Research has shown that Sel-Plex®, an organic form of selenium, is more readily absorbed and retained than selenium in inorganic forms.

Bio-Mos® - Bio-Mos® is a unique form of Mannan Oligosaccharides derived from the outer cell wall of a select strain of yeast using a proprietary process developed by Alltech. Bio-Mos® has a defined mode of action and is incorporated in BALANCED® to maintain gut health and immune system function supporting natural defences essential for optimum performance.

Biotin - Biotin, a water soluble vitamin is required by the enzymes responsible for protein synthesis and as a result is an essential vitamin for the healthy growth of hair and hooves. Research has shown that biotin improves skin and coat condition, increases hoof integrity and is widely recommended by farriers, veterinarians and scientists.

Natural Vitamin E - This unique and highly stable form of Natural Vitamin E known as RRR-a-tocopherol is up to 5 times more bio available and potent than regular synthetic sources of Vitamin E. Research has shown that this form of Natural Vitamin E provides higher retention levels in plasma further aiding antioxidant, immune, cardiovascular, circulatory, neuromuscular and reproductive functions.

Yea Sacc®1026 - Yea Sacc®1026 is a live yeast culture derived from the specific yeast strain Saccharomyces cerevisiae 1026. The addition of Yea Sacc®1026 to equine diets increases fibre, phosphorus and calcium digestibility in mares, and increases gross energy, total lipids and amino acid absorption. Improves milk availability to foals if administered for 3-4 weeks before and throughout the lactation period.

Feeding Guidelines:

HYGAIN® BALANCED® is formulated as a concentrate and contains quality protein for fertility and reproduction, essential amino acids for muscle building, along with balanced levels of critical macro and micro trace minerals for sound skeletal development and Bio-Mos® for optimum gut health and immune system defences.

HYGAIN® BALANCED® can be fed on its own when horses do not require additional grain or used to balance home mixed diets or top up premixed feeds when not used to recommended levels.

Adjust grain intake according to pregnancy and lactation status, age, breed, growth rate, body condition, work load and pasture/hay availability and quality.

If horses are obese, laminitic or suffering from developmental orthopaedic disease remove grain from the diet and feed HYGAIN® BALANCED® with chaff and or hay. Seek professional advice.

Feeding Tips:

1. Introduce HYGAIN® BALANCED® to your horse’s diet gradually over a 7-14 day period.  

2. Feed by weight and not by volume.

3. Feed a minimum of 1% of your horse’s body weight daily as roughage. 

4. Horses have a small stomach, so feed little and often. 

5. Ensure horses have access to clean water. 

6. Do not add additional vitamins or minerals unless directed by a veterinarian or nutritionist.
