Even the best diets can leave hidden gaps that impact performance and the overall well-being of your horse.
Maintaining optimal nutrition for horses is a complex challenge. Even with the best feeding programs, hidden deficiencies in essential elements — like selenium, magnesium, or zinc — can compromise a horse’s health, performance, and recovery.
Soil depletion, unbalanced forage, and over-supplementation are common issues that traditional blood tests can only partly reveal.
Blood levels fluctuate and often reflect short-term changes, making them less reliable for evaluating true nutritional status. That’s why we offer a breakthrough: a simple, non-invasive hair analysis that accurately assesses elemental and metal levels in the horse’s body over time.
Hair reflects long-term metabolic trends, giving veterinarians and owners an invaluable tool to identify deficiencies, monitor the impact of dietary adjustments, and build more precise nutrition strategies — all without the stress or complexity of blood collection.
For tracking long-term nutritional health, blood testing
alone is not the ideal tool.
Blood reflects only a moment in time — not the full nutritional story.
Blood testing can offer useful information, but it mainly reflects short-term changes in the body, not long-term nutritional status.
Because the body works hard to maintain balance (homeostasis), blood levels of elements often appear normal even when deeper deficiencies exist.
Blood draws can also cause stress for the horse and require veterinary assistance, making frequent monitoring difficult.
Identify problems early. Confirm progress over time.
Detect hidden deficiencies and inadvertent metal exposure
Retest after diet changes — monitor and measure real improvement
Create targeted nutritional plans – No more guessing!
Accurate results. No needles, no sedation, no stress.
Collecting a hair sample is quick, easy, and completely stress-free for both horse and handler.
With just a few strands from the mane, we provide a detailed, professional report analyzing essential nutritional elements and heavy metals.
Each report includes personalized insights to help veterinarians and owners build targeted nutrition plans, track progress over time, and make informed decisions to support the horse’s long-term health.
“Hair analysis has given me a whole new tool to support my equine patients. It’s easy to use, non-invasive, and the detailed mineral profiles allow me to make much more precise nutritional recommendations. I recommend it to every client serious about their horse’s long-term health.”
— Dr. Marie Tremblay, Equine Veterinarian
“I thought I was feeding my gelding everything he needed — until the hair analysis showed hidden magnesium and selenium deficiencies. After adjusting his diet, his energy and recovery have completely transformed. I’ll never manage nutrition blindly again!”
— Julie R., Endurance Rider
“Blood tests give you a snapshot. Hair analysis gives you the full story. It’s an invaluable tool for anyone optimizing a horse’s nutritional health over time.”
— Étienne D., Equine Nutrition Specialist
“Collecting the hair sample was so easy compared to scheduling blood draws. Plus, the results were clear and actionable — it gave us peace of mind knowing exactly where to adjust nutrition across multiple horses.”
— Amanda L., Barn Manager
