How does En-Dure provide dietary energy to horses?
En-Dure is a blend of fat sources including stabilized rice bran, soybean oil, and flaxseed oil. Fat is a tremendous source of calories for horses because it delivers 2.25 times the amount of energy as carbohydrates and proteins. En-Dure is 50% fat and is therefore an excellent way to efficiently fuel horses of all ages.
What contribution does flaxseed oil make to the formulation?
Flaxseed oil contains key fats necessary to maintain health. Some of these fats are called essential fatty acids because horses are unable to manufacture them in their bodies, so it is necessary to provide them in the diet. Flaxseed oil contains two essential fatty acids, omega-3 (alpha-linolenic acid) and omega-6 (linoleic acid).
Does En-Dure affect the nutrient content of the diet?
Other than offering additional calories, En-Dure does not alter the nutrient composition of the diet. En-Dure will not change dietary vitamin and mineral content.

FEATURES AND BENEFITS
High-fat, energy-dense supplement
- Contains at least 50% fat
- Contains omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids
En-Dure contains a minimum of 50% fat from several sources such as stabilized rice bran, soybean oil, and flaxseed oil, making it an excellent source of dietary energy. Fat contains more than two times the energy that carbohydrates and proteins do, thereby fueling horses more efficiently. Flaxseed oil contains omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, including linoleic acid, an essential fatty acid that must be supplied in the diet of horses.
Safe to feed
- Eliminates the need for excessive grain in the diet
Fat is a safe way to provide horses with energy. Horses are often fed large amounts of starchy grains in an effort to fuel high-intensity performance. Occasionally, however, they cannot consume enough grain to maintain body condition during work. In some cases, such large amounts of grain are fed that other problems arise, including gastrointestinal upset such as colic or laminitis. Feeding En-Dure provides calories in the form of fats, allowing the horse to consume adequate energy while eating less grain. When used in combination with a low starch diet, En-Dure offers nutritional support for horses prone to muscle stress.
Enriched with Natural Vitamin E
- Vitamin E is an antioxidant that supports healthy muscles and immune system.
En-Dure is a rich source of natural vitamin E, a natural antioxidant that protects muscle tissue from exercise-induced damage.
- Supports normal digestive function
En-Dure includes a proprietary blend of direct fed microbials that support normal digestive function. Even the most finicky eaters will consume En-Dure. Like other supplements, En-Dure is typically top-dressed on a concentrate meal, but horses like it so well they will usually eat it by itself.
Low inclusion
In contrast to other fat supplements,En-Dure is fed in small amounts--only eight ounces per day
