Pumpkin Spice has lived on Triple Crown Balancer Gold for 4 years now. Every year she maintains her weight, has incredible shine & gets compliments everywhere we go for how good she looks. I love adding in the wafers in times of need. Over the winter we used GUT wafers for her travel & post ride stretches. This spring I added HOOF wafers daily to aid in hoof growth with some dry months. Even our vet commented on the farrier x-rays how great her sole depth looks now!!! A simple treat to add in when needed. I love that Triple Crown continues to provide user-friendly products to aid in well-rounded nutrition!
Love that it is soy free!!
Love this product on my 4th balancer, horses look great.
After many feed trials this has been a lifesaver. No more leaky gut or GI symptoms. Saved me money and stress from trying everything out there.
The Balancer Gold checks all of the right nutritional boxes, and provides such great support! And I absolutely love that it is soy free and has all of the extra healthy gut additives.
