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

Features

* Highly concentrated 20g dose rate

* Organic Magnesium & B Vitamins to support healthy nervous and metabolic systems, especially under duress

* Good levels of Copper & Zinc in organic form to combat high Iron & Manganese levels naturally occuring in forage

* Good levels of Lysine, Methionine & Threonine to support healthy muscle, topline, hoof and coat

* Antioxidant support to aid a strong robust immune system

* Supports healthy hooves with magnesium, zinc, b vitamins and biotin inclusion

* Supports connective tissue and digestive function with adequate copper levels matched to common dietary ratio intakes

  • Loving HHIO Foundation
    I absolutely love how thoughtful you are and so generous with the feeding info. It has been enormously helpful to me in getting Toto’s diet balanced. He is coming through the winter looking great! My wonderful barefoot hoof trimmer, Chelsea, said at his last trim that his feet are looking really great – way better than most of the other hooves she trims! I’m very grateful to you for sharing your experience and research into a balanced feed. Together with your Foundation, Toto gets a cupful of oats (cooked the night before); ground flax seeds; ½ cup copra (soaked); 2 tablespoons of NZ sea salt; 3 big scoops of lucerne chaff and I have added a tablespoon of desiccated coconut!

    5 ⭐️ plus! It’s always unfortunate to have to get the vet out , and net result Tōtara is going to be absolutely fine (hurt her leg) . But when the vet’s first comment is : Gosh she is in excellent condition, look at that shine! Then: She is so shiny, is she covered all the time? (No, she’s covered at night, but she’s on HHIO) And after treating- What’s her feed regime? (The vet was watching her munch in to brown top hay from the feeder- ie pretty much zero nutritional value) I told her Hekeao whole food muesli and HHIO Foundation and Support. And that I was particular about the Recommended dosages Plus salt. The vet wanted screen shots of the products so she could read about them. She was very impressed with Totara’s condition. Which made me feel happy! Tōtara has hunted all season, (our first season for both of us). It’s been full on and to come out of it with her so healthy and shiny is thanks to HHIO! So yeah. Very happy. But I’ve been using HHIO for close to a year now? Had my previous horse on it, thanks to Natalie De Caro for recommending and giving me samples to try.

  • Great product
    I started using Foundation about 3 months ago for all 5 of my horses - ranging from 9 yrs to 24yrs and all have come out of winter well with shiny coats and good weights - all have various issues and this product has worked well. We also use individual HIHO products in conjunction with Foundation and love this system!

  • Dependable nutrition supplementation
    I have been supplementing my horse’s diet with HHIO Foundation well over a year now and im pretty sure that has assisted in the recovery of their hoof health as well as generally keeping their minerals topped up. The advice provided in the information pamphlet with each order is also useful. Recommended.
