The best in nutritional aged care for much loved horses and ponies.
When formulating a premium feed for older horses it is important to address the challenges of ageing by maximising feed
digestibility and nutritional robustness - and wherever possible to provide support for entire body systems.
Important inclusions are the correct amino acid profile and the ratio of Essential Amino Acids (EAASs) to
Non-Essential Amino Acids (NEAAs). Getting this right can be lifechanging for a cherished oldie.
Other critical inclusions such as Omega 3 DHA, antioxidants, biotin, superfibres, and pre and pro biotics all combine to
combat the challenges of old age. When changing from a poorer quality feed to Golden Oldies®, the benefits can be seen in
digestive health, general vigour, mobility and coat condition. If poor quality or limited protein has been fed previously you will
see a marked change in your horse’s top line over time.
Remember if your horse’s teeth are showing their age you can soak your Golden Oldies down to a mash with cold
water. Adding Benchmark Super Fibre Mash® to Golden Oldies® will provide an energy rich fibre source that is easy to digest
and a great conditioner, particularly during colder months or when pastures are poor.
Ingredients
Lupin hulls, whole lupins, canola meal, extruded barley, limestone, di-calcium phosphate, magnesium oxide, salt, cold pressed canola oil, Benchmark’s vitamin, mineral and amino acid premix, Agrimos® Prebiotic and Yea Sacc® Probiotic.
