EQUILIBRIUM OPTIMAL

VITAMINS & MINERALS WITH ELEVATED PROTEIN

Equilibrium Optimal is a low calorie, low sugar/starch, nutrient dense pellet with elevated protein (amino acids), minerals and vitamins, containing up to 5 times the vitamin-mineral content of most feeds. This supplement is also classified as a ration balancer.

Optimal is formulated for broodmares, growing horses, performance and leisure horses, including pony and miniature mares and foals. This recommendation is based on feeding Optimal along with a typical horse forage.

FEEDING RATES

Feed Equilibrium Optimal as the sole ration to easy keeping mares, foals and stallions to provide minerals and vitamins. Feed according to the following table, whereby the lower quantity meets minimum vitamin and mineral requirements and the higher quantity meets Purina Superior Recommendations.

Feed in conjunction with water and a minimum of 1% body weight (on a dry matter basis) of a long stemmed forage (hay/pasture). Provide salt free‑choice.

TO OPTIMIZE DIET

• Purina recommends analyzing your hay and balancing the ration accordingly.
• Feed clean and dust free hay in sufficient amount daily. Feeding poor quality hay or feeding inadequate amounts could cause colic and other digestive upsets.
• Offer source of salt (NaCl) daily as well as plenty of fresh and clean water at all times.
• Make any feed change gradually over a 7 to 10 days period.
• Daily ration should be divided into 2 and preferably 3 separate feedings or more.
• Purina recommends providing a maximum of 0.5% of body weight of this feed at one time.
• These recommendations are intended as a guide. They should be adjusted to variables of management, environment and individual needs. Consult your Purina Equine Consultant if necessary.
