PRODUCT DETAILS
LMF Gold Horse Feed
LMF Gold is a nutritionally advanced textured feed for athletic horses. Gold contains 12% fat, originating from ground flax, sunflower seeds, vegetable oil, rice bran and prilled vegetable fat. The combination of fat sources ensures a favorable ratio of Omega 3 to Omega 6 fatty acids. These fatty acids are essential for energy production, immune function and healthy skin and hair. Gold also contains fermentable fiber from shredded beet pulp and soybean seed coats. These fiber sources produce energy but do not add excessive amounts of sugar to the diet. The combination of fat and fiber aids in keeping performance horses focused. LMF Gold also uses value added ingredients including yeast culture to maintain proper digestive function, high levels of antioxidant vitamins to maintain muscle function and chelated trace minerals to ensure healthy bones.
BENEFITS:
•High calorie to support performance and weight gain
•Provides supplemental butyric acid and zinc to help strengthen the intestinal tract
•Uses high quality fiber sources, including beet pulp
•Textured Formula
•Multiple Fat Sources
SPECIAL INGREDIENTS:
Chelated Organic Trace Minerals - These proteinated minerals allow for maximum absorption and retention by the horse. They are designed to match as closely as possible the naturally complexed trace element compounds found in forages and grains.
100% Organic Selenium - Organic Selenium is more bio-available than inorganic Selenium and is better retained in the body. This allows the horse to build nutrient reserves against periods of increased demand with less risk of toxicity.
Added Amino Acids - Amino acids are the building blocks of protein. Think of the proteins as words and the amino acids as the letters that form the words. If an animal is trying to form a protein to build or repair tissue and an amino acid is missing, the protein cannot be formed. LMF feeds use high quality protein sources in all of our feeds. Additionally, LMF feeds are supplemented with two of the most critical amino acids, Lysine and Methionine.
Natural Vitamin E - Natural Vitamin E, which comes from plant oils, is an important fat soluble vitamin that is not produced by the horse’s body. This vitamin must be obtained through external sources like forage, grain and supplements. Vitamin E: acts as an antioxidant, helps keep the immune system strong, and helps the body use Vitamin K.
Omega 3 and Omega 6 Fatty Acids - Omega fatty acids are unsaturated fatty acids that are components of oils commonly added to horse diets. Omega 6 fatty acids are used in the body to help mediate inflammation. Omega 3 fatty acid is used to produce intermediaries that suppress inflammation. Both Omega 3 and Omega 6 fatty acids are important in a horse’s diet for hoof health, reproductive success, allergy and immune conditions, respiratory conditions, and exercise recovery.
Yeast Culture - Yeast Cultures work to enhance fiber digestion and nutrient absorption allowing for increased for enhanced animal performance. By improving feed efficiency yeast cultures also help to maintain body and coat conditions in horses.
FEEDING INSTRUCTIONS:
Feed LMF GOLD to intensely worked performance horses needing significant weight gain at a minimum of 5 pounds per day (for a 1000 pound horse) and up to 12 pounds per day (for a 1000 pound horse). Vary the intake based on intensity of work load and desired rate of body weight gain. Feed along with good quality hay, free choice plain or iodized salt, and fresh water.
WARNING: Feed LMF Horse Feeds to horses according to the feeding instructions provided on the feed tag, or upon the advice of your nutritionist. Do not add other sources of selenium that cause total dietary selenium (forage and grain, combined) to exceed 0.3 ppm. Feeding additional vitamin or mineral supplements is not recommended when feeding LMF Feed products according to feeding instructions.
