This is a human-grade product that is extremely pure but has no denaturing and maximum protein integrity, each 100 grams contains approximately 90% of protein. Whey protein isolate boasts a comprehensive amino acid profile that provides all the essential amino acids (EAAs) including 10.6g of Leucine per serving.

The Benefits: isolate whey protein for horses

Some forages are low in available protein due to a complicated interaction between nitrogen and sulphur levels in the soil. Many horses benefit from an increase in protein. Extra protein can help with lethargy problems and poor hoof and skin quality.

Our isolate whey protein enables you to target extra protein supplementation, with low sugar levels, without including extra digestible energy. Your horse can therefore continue to enjoy ad-lib hay without the added energy concerns that feeding more concentrates would entail.

This grass fed Whey Protein Isolate for horses provides 90g of protein per 100g (dry basis), is low in fat and lactose (sugars) and is rich in calcium.

It is an excellent source of essential amino acids and contains one of the highest proportions of branched-chain amino acids found in natural protein.

Traceability is a key part of our quality monitoring process and to aid this process source only human-grade whey protein isolate.

Produced via proprietary filtration process that concentrates whey proteins in a highly purified form.

Which horses will benefit from whey protein isolate?

  • Good doer horses that are on a reduced hay ration needing to lower their body condition score.
  • Horses that need a very low sugar form of whey protein.
  • Older horses are struggling to maintain topline.
  • Horses that have access to low protein levels in the forage they are eating, can be determined from a nutritional and mineral analysis of grass, hay or haylage.
  • Horses with poor hoof wall connection and or cracks.
  • Horses in heavy work.
  • Young horses on a forage-based diet which needs protein boosting.
  • In foal or nursing mares on a forage-based diet that needs protein boosting.

    Palatable, good source of amino acids for my horse.

  2. Vroni (verified owner)

    I like this product. It is easy to digest for my senior mare. I do not feed grain and I am glad I have a way to increase the protein intake.
