FAQ
What does the BETA EGUS logo on Horse Care Mash mean?
This means that Horse Care Mash certified according to the BETA Feed Approval Mark for feeds suitable for horses and ponies prone to gastric ulcers and has undergone a stringent three-stage application process, which includes the examination of ingredients, labelling, marketing claims and independent laboratory analysis.
Certificates are only issued for feeds that are particularly low in sugar and starch and therefore suitable to feed, as part of a balanced diet, to horses and ponies prone to gastric ulcers
How does Horse Care Mash differ to Comfort Mash?
The main difference between Horse Care Mash and Comfort Mash is that Horse Care Mash is cereal grain-free and therefore much lower in starch. Another key difference is that Horse Care Mash contains Connolly's RED MILLS Nutrition Care package.
