These sugar beet flakes are high in fibre but, contrary to what the content suggests, low in sugar (only 5%). Kwikbeet can be used to increase the fibre content in the ration. It is ready to be fed within 10 minutes of being prepared with water. It is very juicy and therefore stimulates intestinal health. Because it is low in sugar, Kwikbeet is suitable for horses that are prone to laminitis. It can be used to replace part of the roughage, for example for older horses and horses that have difficulty chewing.
KwikBeet should be weighed before soaking. Add 500 ml of water per 100 g of KwikBeet and let it soak for 10 minutes before feeding. Feed 100 g per 100 kg body weight per day in combination with free access to roughage. Do not feed more than 600 g per 100 kg body weight per day in total. Divide this over at least 2-3 portions per day. Ensure a minimum consumption of 1.5 kg per 100 kg body weight of roughage per day.
Tips from the nutrition team:
Adding KwikBeet to the feed provides fluid intake for horses that drink less during times of stress, such as during travel or outdoor competitions; fibre stimulates intestinal motility.
