4.8kg & 9.6kg sizes are extremely popular with the pricing changes.  If it is not available, it is out of stock -  we always have more coming at the start of each month. Feel free to reach out to be advised when it is back in stock.  

We secured a bulk pricing deal from our manufacturer by reducing the number of bag sizes we offer which means we have been able to pass this saving on to you, our valued customer.  Foundation is now 97c a dose (was $1.33) - which is extremely competative pricing (even less if you buy the larger bag size).   The formulation now also includes 2mg Chromium by customer demand and a full range of B vitamins - which will further support your equines nervous, metabolic, immune and digestive systems. 

Information

Targets the commonly deficient minerals, vitamins and aminos whilst not contributing to excessive ones (Iron, Manganese & Potassium!). It is jammed packed with everything your horse typically needs. This is a highly concentrated supplement with no fillers to bulk it out. Not suitable to feed in 'just chaff' unless you have one of those types that will eat absolutely anything!

Works for all types, breeds, age and condition and is suitable for pleasure, breeding, young stock, retired, weekend warrior type workload and low-level performance.  Ideal for horses who hold condition well in some work or who need help with condition turned out.  For low level performance (involving travel, competitions, treks, events) feed HHIO Support alongside.
It pairs great with:

HHIO Assist for seasonal support

HHIO Support for comprehensive coverage for horses exposed to higher levels of daily stresses such as travelling, competing and away from home

HHIO Restore for horses that may come up slightly stiff, hard to warm up, feel the hard summer round, older horses or those with metabolic conditions

    Foundation Minerals
    I have been using foundation minerals for years with my own personal horses and work horses. They really do make a huge difference. I absolutely recommend them to everyone I know without fail. I remember a work horse 2 years ago looked like he was losing his "spark", he was just lacking in one or two minerals but without tests I had no idea which ones. Now I never have to worry. Thanks HHIO

    Highly Recommend Foundation
    I have been using Foundation for a while now for my horse Yogi and he is looking amazing with a super shiny coat even in winter. It's such a simple addition that is also cost effective, highly recommend! Tina is also super helpful with nutritional advice

    All the ingredients you need at a good price
    I've either tried or had a very good look at a number of other options but HIHO Foundation is superior as far as the ingredients go. Everything is in there and in decent amounts. And on top of this it is the most cost effective product I can find. Recommended.

    Great products
    My mare is on HHIO foundation and support and it really settled in her work and a pleasure to be around! She is also no longer girthy (only mildy when in season) which is a big improvement! Highly recommend.

    Would not be without!
    Been using this for years and would never change. Great coats, hooves, health—they all do very well on this. Mud fever markedly reduced!

    Great products!!
    We love Healthy horses inside out products!! Recommended by our farrier Tara. We now recommend these products to others. We follow one of the feeding programmes recommended and it keeps it to a basic and cost effective feed plan for all our horses. They get a small daily hard feed with plenty of grass and hay fed also. One of our horses has been on foundation for 2.5years - the shine to his coat gets lots of compliments from others - he is a 16yr TB - who wasn't in great condition on arrival We just purchased a new pony (elderly german riding pony) who we have started on this product also - 1month with us so far We brought anther horse (12yr TB) last year who we give performance but he will move to foundation when the time is right- he was very skinny and looked shabby on arrival - he looks amazing now
