Stabilized rice bran (20% oil) was the pioneer of high-quality fat supplements for horses in the early 1990s. The production of this stabilized rice bran is possible due to the development of an extrusion-stabilization process that enables vitamins and antioxidants to be maintained along with the high-quality rice oil. Stabilized rice bran is the best concentrated source of high-quality fat for horses. It is commonly referred to as an equine “health” food due to its unique properties and abundant antioxidants. The use of highly digestible stabilized rice bran in equine rations enables horses to be fed more energy without the complications typically associated with traditional high-grain rations. The addition of HEALTHY GLO to the FORAGE FIRST^® line-up of quality equine products makes it possible to provide stabilized rice bran and ground flaxseed in one premium quality supplement.

Features	Benefits
Provides a concentrated source of energy from natural rice oil and flaxseed oil	·    Highly digestible form of energy and provides more energy per pound compared to grain ·    Can reduce the “grain-high” associated with feeding large amounts of grain ·    Can reduce the risks of digestive disorders, such as typing-up, ulcers, founder, and colic associated with feeding large amounts of grain ·    Use of dietary fat reduces the thermal load in working horses, resulting in better stamina and endurance ·    Improves body condition of thin horses ·    Contributes to hair coat shine and “bloom”
Contains powerful antioxidants and a significant amount of natural-source vitamin E	Protects body tissues from oxidative damage. Vitamin E is vital to immune system functioning and may be especially important for working horses as they are more prone to exercise-induced muscle damage. Natural-source vitamin E is more bio-available than synthetic vitamin E (natural-source vitamin E at 1,000 IU/lb).
Source of Omega Flax	Provides a rich source of Omega 3 and Omega 6 essential fatty acids
Rich source of B-complex vitamins	Vital to health, especially for digestion of carbohydrates and fats
Added calcium	Balances the calcium to phosphorus ratio
