UltraCruz® Equine Trace Mineral Supplement for Horses

  • Contains Silicon, Selenium, Copper and more
  • Can help support muscle contraction and nerve impulse conduction
  • Helps provide essential minerals and replenishes electrolytes
  • Aids in proper growth and development

UltraCruz® Equine Trace Mineral Supplement for Horses is a source of key ingredients that help support overall horse health. Minerals are essential for muscle contraction, nerve impulse conduction, and proper growth and development. During perspiration, essential minerals such as electrolytes are secreted and must be replaced in order to maintain proper fluid balance. The rapid consumption of minerals in the body depends on conditions such as growth rate and activity level.

Deficiency can result from supplying minerals at lower than recommended amounts in a horse's diet. In young horses, mineral deficiency during the growing period can cause skeletal abnormalities. All horses require trace minerals, however, performance horses and growing horses may especially benefit from the addition of this high quality supplement to their diet.

Will this provide all minerals needed on a forage based diet?

Asked by: krueger
Hello! While this product is a great source of the Trace Minerals needed for performance, I would recommend looking into the UltraCruz Equine Wellness Supplement instead. That is a more all around supplement with vitamins and minerals.

Can this product be provided free choice in a pasture setting for multiple horses?

Asked by: Kali
Hello there! You can leave it out for free choice feeding, but I would not recommend leaving out the entire bag. Depending on how many horses you can, we recommend you leave out the daily dosing for each horse so that way the product can remain fresh and the horses are getting as close to the daily serving as possible.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great productThis is a great product!! My filly looks so much more filled out and has more stamina since I've had her on this!! My big hard to keep gelding has actually put weight on as well and I never thought I'd be able to get him as big as he is now!!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from No more fence chewing or dirt lickingMy four horses were all exhibiting various tendencies to chew my wood fence or lick the dirt. I suspected they were lacking certain minerals I was not providing enough of. Since I started them all on this mineral supplement, their behavior is back to normal. Yay!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Awesome productI've been using the trace minerals for 2 months. It's easy to feed and my horse eats it up. I've seen a difference in my horses coat. It's also helped to increase his water intake. All around it's a great supplement. Highly recommended.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Trace mineralsMy horses love to eat the trace minerals. I am almost through my first bag and am planning to buy another. I can tell a difference in overall health and demeanor after about one month of them being on the trace mineral supplement.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Returning buyerI am a returning buyer for this supplement. I have been very pleased with my horses improvement on it and their willingness to eat the pellets.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Trace minerals to fill gapsThese trace minerals fill a gap in my horse's diet. I used to mix my own supplements, but I believe I was probably over-supplementing. Now I get the best grass hay & alfalfa I can buy, add some natural phosphorus foods to balance calcium, and use these trace minerals to fill in any gap. The horses seem as healthy and vigorous as ever, and it has simplified my life.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Good productI have fed one large bag of this mineral to several horses. Results are good. I recommend it. Horses look better both hair coat and body condition.
