Soothe & Gain

A High Calorie Conditioning Feed

Soothe & Gain is a high calorie, low starch and low sugar soaked feed, suitable for horses and ponies prone to gastric ulcers as part of a balanced diet. With a high calorie/energy level it is ideal for those that need to put on or maintain condition or those in harder levels of work.

Product description

The energy that Soothe & Gain supplies is from fibre and oil, providing an excellent source of slow release, stamina-giving energy. Being whole cereal grain and molasses free it is low in starch and low sugar, ideal for those that react negatively to high starch diets.
Formulated with digestive health in mind, Soothe & Gain contains a comprehensive gut support package including:

  • Maerl (calcareous marine algae) which is rich in bioavailable calcium and magnesium to support the maintenance of a healthy stomach pH.
  • A blend of prebiotics and a probiotic to support the microbial population of the foregut and hindgut.
  • Beta Glucans derived from the fibrous ingredients within Soothe & Gain form a gel-like consistency which helps to moderate the movement of feed through the gut, meaning the stomach remains fuller for longer.
  • A careful selection of herbs: mint, nettle, dandelion and fenugreek for their well-known properties

Soothe & Gain is a balanced feed that when fed at recommended amounts according to bodyweight and workload will provide the horse with a fully balanced diet inclusive of essential vitamins and minerals, eliminating the need to supplement on top.

Reviews

First of all I just want to say a HUGE thank you for making such a fantastic feed! I rescued Annie in April 2016, she was underweight and her coat was dull. I put her straight on Calm & Condition and not long after she looked like a different horse. She is now full of life, a healthy weight and has the shiniest coat on the yard.

I highly recommend your feed, it's amazing!

Jemima Lacey, Annie (Arab x)

I have been using Allen & Page feeds for the last 5 years and I wouldn’t go back to using anything else. All of my horses are fed on it, including my top horse Wonder Why. My favourite feed is Calm & Condition, as it gives Disney (Wonder Why) the energy he needs to jump at top international level, without getting him over excited.
