Some are specifically formulated for overweight horses, some are for older horses, some are for horses that are involved in competitive horse riding disciplines, but in short feed balancers contain all of the essential vitamins, minerals and nutrients that your horse needs to look and feel great. When it comes to feed balancers you want to look for products that contain the following active ingredients: oils

In addition to equine feed balancers you also want to supplement your horse's diet with a good quality joint supplements.
