Smells like what’s in it, horses love it!

My horses have been on it for almost 4 weeks. My mare wanted to climb into the bag and roll around in it when I held it in front of her muzzle for the first time. My gelding thought it was poison like everything else I give him for the first time. I am titrating up his dose, and he’s doing great! I’m eager to see the long term benefits including exercise recovery. Excited to reorder!

Can’t live without it!

I have a PRE who is on the cusp of being a metabolic horse. She is injured currently and I worry about her slow metabolism without the work. She stays on Optimum HW to help her body regulate her insulin and other factors. It helps tremendously!

Product Delivers!

I continue to re order this supplement as it has helped my easy keeper on an even keel. She was trending toward being a metabolic horse and now with several of BioStar’s supplements, she is lean and toned.

Optimum HW has helped both my IR horses maintain a good weight

I've been giving Optimum HW to a pony (age 16) and a clydesdale/spotted saddle horse (age 25) for about two months. Both have mild IR, both wear grazing muzzles and this additional supplement has helped them keep their body condition up while not putting on extra weight. Their grass bellies have toned up and they now look sleek and fit rather than a little like "Thellwells". Well worth the money.

Life Saver!

We have used this product well over a year & it maintains a healthy weight on my metabolic horse. This product allows her to enjoy the pasture with her buddies while keeping adverse reactions under control. She eats an organic, all-natural diet & no processed grain. I love that this supplement is organic whole food that fits her nutrition perfectly!
