Flaxseed: old-fashioned, but always a smart choice!

Flaxseed may look old-fashioned, but hey, sometimes the classics are still the best! It’s nutritious, packed with healthy fats and proteins, and helps your horse get back into top shape. And honestly, who doesn’t love a bit of healthy slobber?

Tip of the day:

Watch your horse's tongue carefully! If it’s black, it’s a sign they might have eaten some sand. It’s time for a delicious flaxseed slobber!

Here's how to make it:

1. Take 200 to 500 grams of flaxseed (depending on your horse's size) and add twice the amount of boiling water.
2. Let it cook for a few minutes while stirring occasionally, then let it cool down.
3. It's best to feed the flaxseed mash on the same day to preserve the valuable nutrients and prevent spoilage.

Raw flaxseed? No problem either!

Did you know you can also feed flaxseed raw? Especially during shedding periods, a handful daily mixed into the feed is a good choice. 50 to 100 grams per day is fine and poses no problem regarding the linase content that might release some hydrocyanic acid.

Flaxseed is the nutritious, old-fashioned powerhouse that your horse definitely shouldn't miss!
