I saw the lifeline too. Chewy is making things a lot more convenient for me lately! What exactly does the lifeline do? |

anyone's thoughts on stride rewind versus mvp exceed6 way? For joint maintenance
I dont know much about mvp products other than it seems like people really like them and have good results. I think the rewind is more of an omega 3 source for anti inflammatory benefits and that's about it.. the 6 way seems to be more of an all in one type supplement digestion, inflammation, vit/min, etc etc... that's just my take on it, I could be way off lol! |

I've never looked into the Nrf ... is it powder or pelleted? |

| The Nrf2 is a pill. I started taking it about 2 months ago. Didn't really notice any difference until my distributor told me to double dose for a week or two (yes it ups the price) but now I am on a 2 a day pill. So I have read on here that some were giving it to their horses so I started my oldies on it. Started them out with 4 a day, 2 in the morning and 2 at night for about 2 weeks. Got really expensive so now have them cut down to 1 in the morning and 1 at night. I have noticed a difference in them and also for my pain management. They both have arthritis; on is a 30 year old and one is a 24 year old and they both were barrel and roping horses and hauled a lot when younger. They are retired now and out in the pasture but wanted something to make them comfortable in their old age. So far am really liking this and am hoping to cut back or cut out some other pain supplements. They are also on THE MM and THE Performance which I will keep giving this to them. I have them on other supplements and it is getting quite costly to keep them on these other supplements. They also get the Stride Rewind and they also have a Stride Rewind for humans which I also take. |

| The only thing I feel missing from his diet is the omegas. I decided to start him back on the BB ex factor feed. Long story... but mixing soaked beet pulp with multiple vitamins and etc etc.. was getting too expensive and complicated! I was the only person that could feed him. |

| So after talking to a feed rep and one of their nutritionists (Bluebonnet) they told me I could add in an omega source because the ex factor has none in it. I want to feed the ex factor because it's super low NSC and my horse is chunky and I want to stay in the low end of NSC in general. although hes lost weight from doing what I've been. Hes shaping up good. They suggested the rewind or the fish factor ... sounds weird offering a horse fish oil but that is supposed to be the best omega out there for them. Correct ratios of 3 and 6 .... my horse doesnt currently have any soundness issues but I'd like to keep it that way... the more I read up on omegas they seem like a really good thing for overhall health and inflammation prevention. |

| Yes she is and I think mainly because it is "plant" based food. My horses have done good on this and I also get the Hemp Meal Fibre from Dr Getty and they have done good on this also. |

| The thing I've learned about hemp, is its higher in omega 6 than 3 and I thought it was supposed to be the other way around... I still use hemp oil but I stopped giving it to my horse for that reason. Ugh... it gets so confusing! I've seen several nutritionists recommend it but I dont know why because the ratios are backwards ... maybe.. I dont know anymore lol! |

| Heres the thing... I'm FINALLY seeing the results on him ... slimming down wise... he was FAT with a cresty neck ... it's gotten so much better and hes looking good... coat seems a tad dry tho... I'm wanting something that'll benefit that without extra calories, too many anyway.... I was feeding chia seeds but gosh almighty they are expensive! He loves the ex factor feed and I'm still mixing up the rest of the fibre beet till it's all gone. |

| I should probably just try to keep chia incorporated into his diet. It really is beneficial and I like the fact that it's just chia, nothing else added. Seems to pack a nutritional punch, more so than anything else comparable. It's easy to feed now... mixed in with the beet pulp but not sure how well it will mix in with just pellets (ex factor) I may just have to wet it or just suck it up and keep the little bit of beet pulp to mix in. Its literally about a 1 3/4 cup (dry) I soak and mix the ex factor with a 1/4 cup chia seeds in it makes it into a bit of a mash and he loves it. I wonder if I'll end up sprouting any chia in the pasture lol! https://uschia.com/pages/us-chia-benefits-for-horses |

              Location: Under The Big Sky Of Texas | Since my gelding {Melvin} was dianosed with being IR I keep him on a simple diet and cut out all the extras that I was feeding him and the others and they are on just a pelleted feed along with Forgo. All Melvin gets now is his Triple Crown Lite, a handfull of alalfa nibblets,Forgo, twice a day, MVP Anti- Carb once a day and one flake of alflafa hay once a day along with his normal hay. The other two get BB Equilene Pelleted 1 and 1/2 lbs twice a day along with forgo and the alflafa nibblets, Show glo and I give Elevate vit. E along with their feeding, they get hay and of course pasture time for the two, the Mini's just get Triple Crown Lite with a dash of aflafa nibblets. I dont do any of the fancy stuff anymore like oils, seeds, the expensive supplements I cut all that out once I found out Melvins problem, I think now days its to easy to over load our horses systems with all the supplements and extras out there now, we are hurting our horses with love and kindness by buying this and that. I learned the hard way with Mel. I was so overwhelmed with all the different ways to feed I would buy the next best thing, lol. But not anymore just a pelleted feed from BlueBonnet and the simple supplements. ........But added to say Healthy Coat is a good product along with simple Calf Manna. If I ever feel like that something is missing these would be my go to depending on what I feel is needed. |

I dont know how you keep track of all that lol! I'm only feeding 1 and I have to talk to myself when I mixing in this n that and I still almost always forget to thrown in a little table salt! But yes you're right it can get stupid expensive and overwhelming. My plan was to switch over to the ex factor from the fibre beet and all the extras I was having to add in. It's so easy to get sucked in to this supplement or that etc etc.... late nights on the internet when I was reading about laminitis and checking on chuy bout killed me and now I need glasses lol! I've got to finish feeding this custom mix I bought, that I'm sure i was emotionally talked into right after losing chew... I paid a lot for it so hes gonna finish it, by God! The ONLY thing the ex factor is missing is the omegas ... which I think has proved to be pretty important. He cant be turned out on grass all day because I suspect IR he will be tested as soon as I get him in next week for his annual stuff and coggins. I did get his grazing muzzle in yesterday but it's way too wet out in the pasture to turn him out so hes stuck in the small pen for now. I have a 5lb bucket of chia seeds I'll finish out and reevaluate after that .. but I'm still leaning towards the rewind for the O's it's easy and inexpensive |

And the other two they get a cheaper feed since they dont have the same problem as Mel.. I just started the Forgo about 4 months ago and oh my goodness I love it and see a big difference in my pasture horses, they always looked great but the Forgo just topped it for me, so the Forgo is the new supplement I added and wont be adding anymore, I really dont need to be feeding the Sho-Glo but its just a habit now since I have been feeding it for years, I like the minerals it has. I'm trying really hard to NOT buy it anymore {Sho-Glo} but CANT stop, I just give it to Homer and Meno once a day, no body else gets it.  Edited to add; I dont think you can go wrong with the Stride Rewind, I did use and really liked it but got to expensive to feed 4 horses for me.. So I just stayed with the Sho-Glo with the two and Mel gots to have the Anti-Carb, and Forgo I dont think I will never stop feeding that, its ta best in my books. Every body gets it..

| I got these delivered today. A sample of each of their blended chia seeds. I'm not much of a treat person but these are offered in loose chia packages too. I was curious how they taste because they smell so good! I tried a bite and they are delicious! My horse goes ape over these. I knew he would, hes not picky! http://gettyequinenutrition.biz/Products/pureformequinechia.htm
