Highlighted Reviews
"My horse eats it everyday. Powder gets wasted at the bottom of the bucket so this product is awesome. It contains 2,400mg of Lysine per scoop (scoop comes in the bag). When traveling a lot, I feed 4 scoops daily to help his immune system. I feed 2 scoops daily for regular maintenance."
"The write up does not say anything but pure L-lysene, which I was shopping for. It is a filler mix which is not stated in the catalog. I will not buy it again. It doesn't meet my needs"
Bottom Line
An average supplement that helps some horses but not all. Has unique quality problems and acceptability issues for some animals. Good for quick shipping and cheaper alternatives.
