CoolStance Copra Sample

No, CoolStance is not a complete feed so we do recommend feeding a good quality vitamin and mineral supplement or balancer alongside it, such as VitaStance Mineral Mix or VitaStance B1 Cool Mix. Do be careful when selecting a pelleted form of balancer as some can have higher starch levels which can cause unwanted fizzy behaviour. Your local feed store should be able to recommend.

From the date of packing which is located on the rear, underside of your bag of CoolStance, you have two years to use up the bag, which applies to the whether it is unopened or opened. If opened, ensure that your bag of CoolStance is kept in a dry environment away from sunlight.

There are many benefits of feeding coconut oil that not only help internally, but also show externally.

No, CoolStance Copra contains 10% coconut oil which will replace other oils such as linseed, soya or vegetable. The oils in other meals are usually made up of Long Chain Fatty Acids (LCFA), which are polyunsaturated. This means they are digested slowly, and are prone to rancidity during storage. Some commercialised oils are made using GMO seeds/grains. The fatty acids in CoolStance are made up of medium chain triglycerides (MCT) and are saturated. This means they are readily digested, absorbed by the horse and are not prone to rancidity during storage. CoolStance is GMO and chemical free.

Most horses love the taste of CoolStance. However, some horses can find the taste a little unusual and do take a little longer to adjust. Most modern day feeds are coated in molasses or other glucose based coatings to reduce the dust content. This adds to the sugar content and realistically is an offering of sweets to your horse!

With fussy eaters, we recommend introducing CoolStance very gradually starting off with small amounts and over time reducing your current feed. Some horses can take up to 8 weeks to change over.

Yes, CoolStance is suitable for horses or ponies on box rest. Horses or ponies that are on box rest should have their diets adjusted to suit their reduced levels of activity. So we would recommend, as with any feed, to reduce the amount of CoolStance and then readjust accordingly as and when they come back in to work.

It is ideal for horses on box rest as it is a truly cool feed that won’t contribute to fizzy behaviour often seen with horses that have been on box rest for a period of time.

CoolStance is brown in colour because the white flesh of the coconut has been heated during processing to mechanically extract the oil. It contains no husk or shell and is a guaranteed premium, quality copra meal.

Yes, CoolStance is completely free of prohibited substances. It is regularly batch tested, aflatoxin tested and regulated by FEMAS.
