Introduction

The complete, medium energy, non-heating feed for performance horses.

 

Unlike conventional hard feeds, which can contain high starch cereals, Tiger Oats offers a palatable, low starch (30%), high oil, high fibre, 14Mj/kg energy feed that is perfect for working horses.

Based on the best Scandinavian black and gold oats (from which the product draws its name), Tiger Oats includes a 2mm vitamin and mineral balancer pellet to optimise the availability of nutrients, together with a coating of Oatinol - a unique product containing high levels of natural antioxidants, polar lipids and galactolipids to help maintain a healthy gut membrane, good digestion and efficient nutrient absorption.

 

Key Benefits:

• Manufactured with traditional, low starch, high oil, high fibre lean horse oats that complement the natural ability of the horse to obtain energy from starch, oil and fibre sources.

• Low starch provides for a non-heating product and reduces the risk of digestive upsets associated with undigested carbohydrate reaching the hindgut.

• High oil content provides concentrated energy in slow release form.

• High fibre maintains a slow passage of feed through the foregut, so aiding the digestion of oils, starch, proteins, calcium and phosphorus as well as vitamins: A, D, E and K. High fibre also provides a source of slow release energy from microbial fermentation in the hindgut.

• Includes a vitamin and mineral balancer pellet to ensure the correct calcium:phosphorus ratio, together with extra salt and vitamin E, which are all necessary for hard work.

• Recommended as part of the GWF Nutrition Equine Feeding Guide.

Through the addition of the following specific nutricines, Tiger Oats provides a complementary nutritional support for all horses and ponies.

Nutricine / Active Ingr.	Why We Use It

Concentrated Yeast Derived Oligosaccharides

Oligosaccharides provide a feed source for beneficial bacteria and support the natural expulsion of antagonists found in feed and the environment.

Contains the Oatinol^® Delivery System

For all the nutritional elements of Tiger Oats to be utilised, they have to be absorbed from the horses’ digestive tract. Oatinol supplies the following nutricines to maintain gut cell integrity, maintain the lining of the gut, support the immune system and aid the absorption of nutricines, vitamins and trace elements.

Nutricine / Active Ingr.	Why We Use It

Oatinol - Galactolipid Natural Emulsifiers

Galactolipids are a combination of sugar and fat molecules that help establish the perfect medium for enzyme activity in the gut to absorb feed components.

Oatinol - Natural Tocotrienol Antioxidants

Tocotrienol antioxidants are found naturally in oat bran. This tocotrienol form of vitamin E is 40 to 60 times more readily recycled in membrane systems and supports tissue integrity.

Oatinol - Oat Derived Beta Glucans

Beta glucans provide nourishment for beneficial fibre degrading microbes and helps maintain a high level of natural immunity.

Oatinol - Polar Lipids

Polar lipids are found in high concentrations in cell membranes and are essential for tissue integrity and the controlled passage of materials into and out of cells.
