Allen & Page Care & Gain 20kg – High-Calorie Low-Starch Feed for Horses, Ponies

Allen & Page Care & Gain – 20kg

A high-calorie feed with combined starch and sugar under 10%, which is an unusual pairing — most feeds that put weight on a horse do it with cereals, and cereals are exactly what a laminitis-prone horse cannot have. Care & Gain draws its calories from fibre and oil instead.

That makes it a practical answer for the horse that is both underweight and metabolically fragile, or the older horse that needs condition but cannot chew hard feed. Magnesium and calcium carbonate buffer stomach acid, a probiotic, prebiotic and postbiotic blend supports the gut, and elevated vitamins C and E support immune function and muscle health. It soaks in under three minutes.
