Wheat Germ Oil

Oils are added to the equine diet to increase energy density without adding bulk. Not only is it calorically dense, but oils are also useful in cleaning up a horse’s coat and adding the shine you desire. Studies have shown the addition of oil in a horse’s diet to increase the flexibility of hooves and to be considered “calm energy” as it won’t cause a hot-head or overly excited horse.

Wheat germ oil is recognized for its healthy balance of omega-3 to omega-6 fatty acids which offers a number of health benefits. Wheat germ oil also naturally contains vitamin E similar to other oils such as rice bran oil, soy oil, and flaxseed oil.
