What is Horslyx Garlic Balancer?

Horslyx Garlic Balancer is a weather-resistant, palatable vitamin & mineral lick formulated to balance forage and grazing while delivering pure garlic oil for all-year insect support. The high-spec balancer package includes antioxidants (vitamin E & selenium) and chelated copper and zinc to aid immune function and skin integrity, with added oil for coat shine. Available in 15 kg tubs.

Why choose the Garlic Balancer?

• Research-backed insect support: Independent studies at Aberystwyth University showed that horses offered Horslyx Garlic experienced significantly fewer fly landings and reduced fly-avoidance/sweet-itch behaviours when fed continuously.

• Pure garlic oil (not dried granules) for consistent aroma and efficacy, combined with the Horslyx balancer matrix.

• Complete nutritional top-up: balances common shortfalls in UK forage (vitamins, minerals, trace elements) to support overall health, skin/coat and hoof quality.

• Low starch, trickle-feed friendly: designed for natural lick-and-rest intake patterns; suitable for laminitis-prone equines when fed sensibly to recommended intakes.

Horslyx What the research says

Two separate trials reported that Garlic Horslyx reduced fly landings and alleviated irritation linked to sweet itch, helping horses stay calmer and easier to manage at grass during fly season. (See Horslyx research news & media summaries for details.)

Horslyx Nutrition & formulation highlights

• Antioxidants: vitamin E + selenium help maintain a robust immune system.

• Chelated copper & zinc: bioavailable forms to support skin, coat pigments and hoof horn.

• Oil & omega support: added oil (incl. linseed in the range) contributes to skin/coat condition and overall calorie density without cereal starch.

Horslyx Sizes, holders & where to use

• 15 kg: best value for yards/fields; weather-resistant tub for outdoor placement.

Feeding & intake guidance

• Offer free-access alongside ad-lib forage and fresh water. Use a holder to manage intake and keep the lick clean.

• Horslyx balancers are low in starch and can be suitable for laminitis-prone horses when used correctly; always follow intake guidance and overall calorie control. See Horslyx Feeding Guidelines for how to introduce, manage access time, and position licks.

Horslyx Who is it for?

• Horses and ponies needing a fly-season support strategy that works from the inside out.

• Good-doers on forage-only or reduced-bucket-feed regimes who still need a balanced micronutrient top-up.

• Field-kept horses needing weather-resistant nutrition with built-in boredom reduction.
