Hygain® Micrbeet® is high in soluble fibre and low in sugar, suitable for all equines regardless of age and use.

  • High in soluble fibres to maintain a healthy gut.

As a supplemental fibre source when fed with premixed feeds and hay*
HYGAIN® MICRBEET® can be fed as an addition to your horse’s premixed feed/grains and roughage. HYGAIN® MICRBEET® can also be used as a top dressing to encourage the intake of less palatable feeds.

Grazing should be restricted and the soaking of hay is recommended for equines prone to starch/sugar related conditions (e.g.: laminitis, grain intolerance, cushings etc.). HYGAIN® MICRBEET® may also be used in conjunction with HYGAIN® ZERO® the unique low Carb – low GI formula providing the required balance of daily nutrients in the diet.
