Directions
- Use the feeding table as a guide to supplementing with Empower® Boost, and feed along with a complete, well-balanced diet, including good quality hay or the pasture equivalent.
- If the horse’s manure becomes loose, reduce the amount of Empower® Boost Supplement in the diet slightly until the horse adjusts. Then increase slowly again to the desired level.
- The Empower® Boost Supplement contains added minerals and Vitamin E so it can be fed with a balanced diet, without diluting the mineral balance in the total diet.
- Fresh clean water should be available at all times. Horses that have been exercised should be cooled out and re-hydrated properly before being fed and before having access to unlimited water.
- Horses should be maintained at a body condition score of 5 or above. Broodmares should have a body condition score of 6 or above prior to foaling.
- Salt should be available free choice at all times.
