Cinnamon's Supplements

Here are the supplements I've been using. I selected these based on recommendations, nutritional analysis and value. I feed once per day.


I use a general multivitamin, a coat supplement and a hoof supplement because they all have different active ingredients. I mix them with Oat-Mo because it is relatively inexpensive and Cinnamon is a VERY picky eater, but she likes these when they're mixed with Oat-Mo.


I have found that Stateline Tack has the best prices, especially when you get free shipping during one of their sales.


General Multivitamin Supplement: For-A-Flex Pro-Vita
$12.99 for 5lbs or $0.17 per day
I like the idea of feeding a general multivitamin for overall health, immune system and organ function. This is fairly economical and has good nutritional content.








Coat Supplement: Grand Meadows Grand Coat
$27.49 for 5lbs or $0.35 per day
I believe this is the supplement that is making the biggest difference in Cinnamon's coat. It is much softer and is beginning to really shine.

Hoof Supplement: Source Focus HF
$19.95 for 3.5lbs or $0.53 per day
This is the most expensive of the supplements and takes the longest to see results. I am going to evaluate at 3 months and reassess whether I want to use this. I probably would not use this on a horse that already has good feet considering the relatively high cost.
