And here is a copy of the ingredients of Cocosoya Oil in case anyone is interested but it just looks like more soybean oil??

hoofs_in_motion - 2013-12-24 11:31 AM I agree with the Healthy Coat as well 
Wow, lots of votes for Healthy Coat! The reason I haven't already bought a jug is that the ingredients show a mixture of soybean oil and some others and I sure wouldn't want to be paying $22 per gallon for soybean oil that I can buy as vegetable oil at Walmart for $7 per gallon. Comments on this?

I have used Healthy Coat for 10 years nows, the difference to me is the vegtable oils on the self in the store have all been bleached and refined, notice the light color of them.  Healthy Coat is expellar pressed so you have the oil in it's most natural state and the essential fatty acids are intack.  I liken most oils on a grocery store shelf to white bread, it has been bleached, refined and had stuff added back to it to make it
somewhat healthy for you.

Thank you Dixie Rules! I will probably be trying a jug of each of Healthy Coat and DAC but wanted to make sure others have had good results with it and I wasn't just buying overpriced plain ole vegetable oil with a few fillers. So it looks like there really is a difference in the soybean oil at Walmart and the soybean oil in Healthy Coat and DAC. Thanks so much everyone!

 I can't use Healthy Coat. It draws ants into the stalls in horror movie numbers. They even find the jug in the barn and march up and down to the cap.
It's like a giant magnet and the ants are metal shavings.

The best thing I ever did for my horses' coat and overall appearance was switch to Nutrena Safe Choice.  I have always taken great pride in my horses'  appearance and health, but Safe Choice took them to a new level.  (I have owned horses for 45 years.) Hair coat, hooves, mane/tail....overall appearance and it takes very little to maintain weight.

Soybean oil has put weight on my guy and he's got a beautiful fluffy/shiny coat. $20 for a 5 gallon jug - cheap with great results. I put a half cup in with his scoop of grain.

I am a FAN of cool calories.  I mainly use it for one horse.  She is a BIG girl and it takes WAY more feed to keep her looking good than it does anyone else.  She is just bigger.  I didn't want to make her eat a ton of grain (for one thing she won't) and I do feed her alfalfa hay but I needed something else.  This is cheap and it works and she doesn't get hot on it nor do I have to worry abou ther getting hot on it.

Every once in a while if the weather goes funky or whatever and I have a horse that loses a few more pounds than I am comfortable wtih, I will feed a weeks worth of it to them and they bounce right back.

Love this product!

PS-I have fed vegetable oil in the past and I don't think there is a comparison.  I get immediate results with Cool Calories and IMO better than the oil.

I fed them for a while and didn't really see a difference although I did have a really cool looking pasture with sunflowers popping up everywhere in manure piles, lol.
