DID YOU KNOW ?
With flaked and puffed cereals for easy digestion. Flaked cereals are much easier to digest than unprocessed cereals. Puffed cereals are even easier to digest. Puffed cereals are heat-treated, disentangling up to 90% of the starch. This makes the cereals twice as digestible compared to unprocessed cereals. Puffed cereals have many other benefits compared to unprocessed cereals, such as slower release of energy, fewer sugar peaks, lower risk of digestive problems like colic or gastric ulcers, more nutrients and energy in a smaller amount of feed, more flavour, longer gastric retention, and slower release in the small intestine.
Probiotics promote good digestion. Probiotics stimulate the development of good intestinal flora. Intestinal flora plays a vital role in controlling and regulating the immune system. It protects the body against the "harmful" outside world. This is why it is vital to maintain healthy intestinal flora to ensure the best possible state of health and performance.
Oats are a cereal that can be used as an energy source in a muesli for competition horses. It quickly releases lots of energy. This is not needed for recreational horses, or for horses who do not need high energy levels.
Adding long fibre means that the horse has to chew for longer and increases saliva production. Saliva is not the only benefit of chewing longer. It also causes natural tooth wear, alleviates boredom and ensures that the feed is consumed more slowly. Long fibres also promote intestinal motility, which improves digestion.
