When choosing a supplement for your horse, you face a key decision: powder, pellets, or liquid? At HorseTonic, we exclusively use liquid formulations, and that is no coincidence.
Format matters
Liquid supplements are already dissolved, which can make them easier to dose and feed than powders or pellets.
In a liquid supplement, the active substances are already dissolved in water. They do not need to be broken down by the digestive system first, which is how active ingredients like hyaluronic acid, MSM and glucosamine end up in the ration.
Dissolved and ready to use
Liquid formulations are already dissolved, which can make them easier for the body to process than powder formulations. Individual results vary from horse to horse.
With Horse Tonic Artico Gold, consistent daily use over several weeks is recommended before evaluating results, as with any joint supplement.
Easier dosing
Another advantage of liquid supplements is dosing accuracy. With a measuring cup, you give exactly the right amount. Powders are more prone to variation, especially if the supplement clumps in humidity.
Liquid is also easier to mix with feed and is accepted well by most horses.
When to choose a liquid supplement?
- Sport horses in competition: easy to dose accurately around events
- Older horses: easier to digest with a less efficient digestive system
- Horses with dental issues: no chewing effort needed
- Horses that are difficult to supplement: liquid disappears easily into feed
