Description
20kg
META SAFE® is a grain free concentrate pellet containing a complete blend of nutrients at a low feeding rate. The most advanced, scientifically formulated Low GI concentrate to support horses on restricted diets or that suffer from metabolic disorders.
Formulated with less than 1.5% starch, low in sugar and the added benefit of BONAFIDE®. The addition of BONAFIDE®, bolsters the vital Vitamin K1 and K2 nutrients horses on restricted grazing lose access too, and protects bone density and strength. Vitamin K1 and K2 effect the function of osteocalcin, the bone protein that binds the mineral and protein in the bone together. Without sufficient access to Vitamin K1 and K2, low density or defective bone and cartilage can be produced.
META SAFE® is ideal for horses and ponies susceptible to obesity or that suffer from EMS, laminitis and cushings.

META SAFE® HORSE PELLETS
BONAFIDE®
BONAFIDE® bolsters the vital vitamin K1 and K2 nutrients horses on restricted grazing lose access too, and protects bone density and strength. Vitamin K1 and K2 effect the function of osteocalcin, the bone protein that binds the mineral and protein in the bone together. Without sufficient access to Vitamin K1 and K2 low density or defective bone and cartilage can be produced.
Bio-Available Selenium
Selenium acts as an antioxidant to prevent fatty acid oxidation which can cause tissue damage. Research has shown that an organic form of selenium, is more readily absorbed and retained than selenium in inorganic forms.
Prebiotic
Prebiotics incorporated in HYGAIN® META SAFE® horse pellets have a defined mode of action, promoting a healthy gut and supporting natural defences essential for optimum health and performance.
Biotin
Biotin, a water soluble vitamin is required by the enzymes responsible for protein synthesis and as a result is an essential vitamin for the healthy growth of hair and hooves. Research has shown that biotin from horse pellets improves skin and coat condition, increases hoof integrity and is widely recommended by farriers, veterinarians and scientists.
Natural Vitamin E
This unique and highly stable form of Natural Vitamin E known as RRR-a-tocopherol is up to 5 times more bio available and potent than regular synthetic sources of Vitamin E. Research has shown that this form of Natural Vitamin E provides higher retention levels in plasma further aiding antioxidant, immune, cardiovascular, circulatory, neuromuscular and reproductive functions.

HORSE PELLET FEEDING TIPS
HYGAIN® META SAFE® horse pellets are formulated as a concentrate and contain quality essential amino acids for muscle building, along with balanced levels of critical macro and micro trace minerals for sound skeletal development and prebiotics for optimum gut health and immune system defences.
HYGAIN® META SAFE® horse pellets can be fed on its own when horses do not require additional feed or used to balance home mixed diets or top up premixed feeds when not used to recommended levels
Adjust feed intake according to pregnancy and lactation status, age, breed, growth rate, body condition, work load and pasture/hay availability and quality.
If horses are obese, laminitic or suffering from developmental orthopaedic disease remove feed from the diet and feed HYGAIN® META SAFE® with chaff and or hay. Seek professional advice.
Introduce HYGAIN® META SAFE® to your horse’s diet gradually over a 7-14 day period.

Feed a minimum of 1.5% of your horse’s body weight daily as roughage.
