A balancer that's great for picky easy keepers! I love the higher amount of vitamin E as I'm in an area that's lower in it. It's also one of the few carriers that successfully hides medication flavor too!
This supplement has helped my older horse change his BCS with the help of TC Senior. His over all health has improved greatly since being recommended by my veterinarian to use this brand of feed. The science and dedication to improve nutrition for horses is amazing and cost effective in the long run. Thank you!
I absolutely love this product!! My mare requires a minimal amount of feed and this ensures that she is getting all her nutrients despite not getting much feed! She is at a healthy weight and maintains it perfectly! Thank you TC for providing and making this product available!
Balancer keeps my gelding in ideal shape at a surprisingly low cost. If you calculate all the additional supplements that you would need to add to the competitors’ product (omegas, probiotics), you’ll find Balancer is the better value and the easiest to feed.
We use Balancer and Senior and both have made a huge impact on our low maintenance and hard keepers! Horses love the taste!

1. One cellulase unit (CU) is defined as the amount of activity that will produce a relative fluidity change of 1 (determined with a calibrated viscometer) in 5 minutes in a defined carboxymethylcellulose substrate at pH 4.5 and 40°C.
2. One hemoglobin unit (HUT) of proteolytic (protease) activity is defined as that amount of enzyme that produces, in one minute under the specified conditions, a hydrolysate whose absorbance at 275nm is the same as that of a solution containing 1.10g per mL of tyrosine in 0.006N hydrochloric acid.
3. All Triple Crown feeds have fixed ingredient formulas. Values reflect an estimated analysis of multiple feed samples from across the U.S. with the understanding that geographic differences can impact the results. Estimated values determined by Equi-Analytical, Ithaca, NY.
