Product Description

Saracen Shape-Up™ is a high fibre mix designed to provide horses and ponies with a balance diet at low intake levels, helping to maintain a normal, healthy metabolism. Cereal-free, low in sugar and low in starch, Shape-Up gives a minimal glycaemic response post-feeding, when fed in small quantities, making it an ideal mix for those prone to anxiousness or excitability.

Saracen Shape-Up can also be used as a calorie-controlled ration for horses and ponies with an increased risk of metabolic disorders, meeting micronutrient needs while maintaining a low starch, sugar and calorie intake.

Based on Saracen’s “super-fibres”, Saracen Shape-Up™ provides a higher level of slow release energy, compared to pelleted balancers, helping to optimise stamina while maintaining a calm, trainable temperament.

As well as quality fibre and oil sources within the formulation, Saracen Shape-Up also contains Acid Buf, an acid neutralising ingredient, and a mycotoxin binder to help maintain a healthy digestive system. Added vitamins and minerals, including a healthy hoof package, provide the key nutrients to maintain optimum skin health, coat shine and hoof quality. Essential amino acids support muscle function and topline development, while added magnesium supports normal cell sensitivity to insulin, nerve transmission and muscle contraction.

A tasty cinnamon flavour encourages the fussiest of eaters, and those with limited appetites, as well as good-doers.
