Soy hulls are the co-product of milling soy meal, they have long been regarded internationally as an excellent source of fibre for horses because of the superior digestibility.

This superior digestibility is why Soy Hulls are also included in the 'Super Fibre' family of Fibres; alongside, Beet Pulp and Linseed Flake.


​People sometimes confuse the nutrient profile of Soy Hulls with Soyabean Meal and think they have a similar nutrient content. However, Soyabean Meal is a highly concentrated quality protein meal used as an ingredient in many muscle & conditioning concentrates. COOL FIBRE uses the Soy Hulls, which are the outer shell (or husk) of the soy beans & while the Soy Hulls have a moderate level of quality proteins and residual oil - they are valued in Equine Nutrition for the QUALITY FIBRE.

COOL FIBRE EXTRA is an excellent Fibre Base that you can use to begin to build your total meal Ration.  Include a 'Long Fibre' in your bucket, such as chaff or chaffage, to support peristalis in the digesta and to encourage your horse to chew and grind his meal to support additional saliva production.

 

Due to the nature of plant based ingredients, the nutritional analysis can vary slightly between batchs.

Typical Analysis: DRY MATTER 90%, CRUDE PROTEIN 13.5%, CRUDE FAT 4% (FROM RESIDUAL OIL IN THE BLEND), NDF 67%, STARCH <3%, NON STRUCTURAL CARBOYHYDRATES <9% AVERAGE,8.5MJ/KG DRY MATTER.
