The   purest   form   of   salt   you   can   give   your   horse.   Natural   and   as   pure   as   the   day   it   was   mined high   up   in   the   Himalayan   mountains.   Horses   and   ponies   require   supplementary   salt   on   a   daily basis.   Research   shows   that   salt   is   the   one   nutrient   that   horses   will   self-supplement   to   balance their   diet.   Himalayan   Salt   Licks   hung   in   the   stable   and   field   allow   access   to   the   purest   form   of salt, without unnatural flavours that can encourage greediness! Horses   deficient   in   salt   will   lick   or   chew   on   mangers,   fences,   dirt,   rocks   and   other   objects.   They also    develop    depraved    appetites,    rough    hair    coat    and    reduced    growth.    Mares    experience reduced   milk   production,   according   to   reports   from   the   Mississippi   Station.   Horses   with   severe salt   deficiency,   brought   about   by   a   low   salt   intake   and   considerable   sweating,   become   fatigued and   exhausted.   Horses   that   sweat   profusely   can   lose   as   much   as   82.5   grams   of   sodium   per   day. Consequently,   level   of   activity   and   degree   of   heat   stress   has   a   greater   affect   on   salt   requirement in horses than any other farm animal species. The   need   for   salt   varies   considerably,   depending   on   a   horse's   level   of   work,   riding   or   heat   stress. Because   sweat   contains   about   0.7%   salt,   the   more   a   horse   exercises   the   more   salt   is   lost   via sweat   and   the   more   it   is   needed   in   the   diet.   We   here   at   Organic   Beauty   recommend   offering Himalayan   Salt   free   choice   or   by   the   scoop   to   your   horse   and   giving   the   supplement,   ProVision, to ensure a healthier horse. We Provide salt Licks in Two Different Forms for this Purpose: Salt Block Natural Salt Lick
