When formulating a premium feed for older horses it is important to address the challenges of ageing by maximising feed digestibility and nutritional robustness – and wherever possible to provide support for entire body systems.

Important inclusions are the correct amino acid profile and the ratio of Essential Amino Acids (EAASs) to Non-Essential Amino Acids (NEAAs). Getting this right can be lifechanging for a cherished oldie.

  • Other critical inclusions such as Omega 3 DHA, antioxidants, biotin, superfibres, and pre and pro biotics all combine to help combat the challenges of old age. When changing from a poorer quality feed to Golden Oldies®, the benefits can be seen in digestive health, general vigour, mobility and coat condition. If poor quality or limited protein has been fed previously you will see a marked change in your horse’s top line over time.
  • Remember if your horse’s teeth are showing their age you can soak your Golden Oldies® down to a mash with cold water. Adding Benchmark Super Fibre Mash® to Golden Oldies® will provide an energy rich fibre source that is easy to digest and a great conditioner, particularly during colder months or when pastures are poor.
  • Low Sugar & Starch – Horses need good levels of energy in their diets to function and perform at their best, but high sugars and starch are one of the main causes of health issues in horses today. Benchmark Golden Oldies® has good levels of energy, mainly through fat content in the feed and microbial fermentation producing “cool” energy.
  • Super Fibres – Fibre is the natural source of feed for horses and Benchmark Golden Oldies® is packed with some of the best Super Fibres available. Soybean and lupin hulls enhance microbial fermentation in the hindgut, improving digestion, vitamin production and overall health. It only makes sense to feed something natural to your best friend!
  • A Complete Feed – Benchmark Golden Oldies® is heavily fortified with essential nutrients, all designed to enhance and improve the health and appearance of your ageing companion. Provide ample quality forage and water with Golden Oldies® for a quality diet.
  • Immune Boosting – Golden Oldies® contains immune boosting minerals such as copper, zinc, manganese, selenium, iodine, and chromium plus many high-quality antioxidants.
  • Gut Health – Golden Oldies® contains good levels of pre- and pro-biotics, designed to improve the gut and overall health of your best friend!
  • Prevent Muscle Wastage – with good levels of essential amino acids for muscle repair and development plus ample levels of chromium, scientifically proven to prevent muscle break down and wastage, Benchmark Golden Oldies® is designed to help maintain the muscle and overall body condition of your aging friend.
