HORSE HEALTH FIRST
Why is a Haygain Hay Steamer an ideal way to protect your horse’s respiratory health?
Over 80% of sport horses are affected by inflammation in the upper and lower airways, making it a challenge for them to breathe and perform properly. This respiratory problem usually happens when they inhale microscopic particles that irritate the lining of the respiratory tract.
Preserve your horse’s respiratory health by reducing the amount of respirable particles in their environment.
Start with forage, the biggest source of respirable particles. These include dust, mold, bacteria and other allergens commonly found even in forage of good nutritional quality. Implementing an effective high-temperature steaming routine helps reduce up to 99% of the respirable particles without losing any key nutrients.
A landmark study published in the Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine in 2018 established that our hay steamers reduce the risk of Inflammatory Airway Disease by 65%. (Inflammatory Airway Disease is also known as Mild or Moderate Equine Asthma.)
Why is The Forager Slow Feeder a great way to support your horse’s digestive health?
In nature, horses were meant to spend a large part of their day grazing on forage. Our Forager is a feeding method that integrates nature’s design for digestive health with modern horse management.
Slower pace eating over several hours and in small bites protects your horse’s digestive health. More chewing produces more saliva that buffers the stomach lining from ulcer-causing acids and a steady flow of forage helps reduce colic risk.
