Salt for Horses – Tragic Mistakes to Avoid

December 2, 2013 by Stephanie Krahl

Equine Nutrition and Salt

Did you know that salt plays an important role in your horse’s health? Without it, life would not be possible. There are a multitude of misconceptions about feeding salt to horses – many of which I cover in the book Salt for Horses: Tragic Mistakes to Avoid.

I continue to see much confusion and misguided information floating around on this subject. That’s why I wrote this book. It seems like such a simple subject but in essence it is very misunderstood in the horse industry even by most well-established equine nutritionists who are unintentionally providing advice that’s neither healthy nor scientifically sound.

December 8, 2010 by Stephanie Krahl

natural horse nutrition

Feeding a horse should be based on a natural and appropriate diet – this is one of the key principles for maintaining a healthy equine partner as part of your natural horse care program.

Nutrition is a huge subject that’s both a science and an art.  Keeping that in mind, it’s not realistic to cover such a subject in great detail in a short article, however, what I can cover are some basic elements you need to consider when it comes to feeding a horse naturally.

In my opinion, diet is one of the most important ingredients in overcoming health problems in our horses as well as in ourselves.

Feeding a Horse Commercial Feeds – What to Consider

January 26, 2010 by Stephanie Krahl

The Horses of Soulful Equine

Feeding horses commercially prepared feeds is popular in the equine industry because it’s a convenience.

You believe you’re doing what’s best for your equine companion.  However, have you considered that possibly the contents of that nicely packaged equine product could be harmful?

The intent of this article is not to bash particular name brands or give you complete solutions but rather to provide information to promote awareness about feeding horses commercially prepared food.

If you haven’t been concerned about how many horse feed recalls there have been in the last decade, it may be time to think about it and choose your horse products wisely. By wisely, I mean not just from a nutritional standpoint but also from a safety standpoint.
