Ingredients
The main ingredients used to make Simplysunshine are:
Maize, Yeast, Soya oil, Vitamins, Minerals with
Beta-carotene is found in fresh grass but not in hay or haylage. Though its primary functions are as a precursor to vitamin A and as an antioxidant, Beta-carotene has important roles in maintaining an effective been shown to enhance immune system and, is also known to be beneficial to reproduction.
Vitamins A, C and E to support cell heath and immunity
Vitamin C is a key component of the innate immune response in horses. It helps neutralise the production of free radicals, which is accelerated during any type of physical or mental stress, The horse can make some of its own vitamin C but in times of increased requirement, this natural production may be insufficient. Boosting the diet with additional vitamin C helps maintain a healthy immune system.
Vitamin D essential for healthy bones and skin
It takes between 5 and eight hours of exposure to the sun’s rays to maintain Vitamin D levels in the horse, and this target is easily missed during the winter months. The horse can store some vitamin D but these stores are eroded as exposure to sun’s rays is reduced, and when supplies from preserved forages are low. Vitamin D is best known for its role in maintaining healthy bones – vital for young and mature horses alike; its role in maintaining calcium levels means it has a key supporting role important in muscle health, and it plays a role in many other body systems.
B vitamins, including biotin and B12 for energy metabolism and good hoof health.
Yeast probiotic to support digestive health.
The live probiotic yeast helps support the change from a grazing to hay or haylage based diet. Dietary change is a major risk factor for colic. Yeasts are known as “gut stabilisers” – helping to maintain a healthy digestive system

FAQS
Is SimplySunshine suitable for laminitis sufferers?
Yes because you only give a small amount on each feeding occasion and the sugar/starch level is extremely low (less than 20g) per feeding amount
Do horses and ponies like the taste of SimplySunshine?
Yes they love the taste of SimplySunshine – so much so that the horses and ponies in the field trials eat the pellet from the hand – with no other feed
If a horse is being fed a multi vitamin and mineral supplement do I need to feed this?
Possibly not – the key question is your horse or pony looking as good as it should do? If the answer is no then adding SimplySunshine can give that extra radiance of good health.

The ponies love it and it keeps their coats looking lovely!

Since using this product I have noticed a massive change in the shine on Macs coat and also in his mentality, he has been super keen this winter, still energetic towards his work and this is coming from a 20 year old Welsh Cob who on a low sugar diet has always struggled with his energy levels. We can’t thank you enough for giving us the chance to try this, I have just ordered another bag out of my own money that’s how much we now love this little gem!

Great product, pony looks well and without the excess calories
Georgia King & Mojo –
I began using Simply Sunshine straight away on my 14.1 pony Mojo, and 3 weeks on his coat is looking gleaming and in great condition.
Caitlin Dean –
I absolutely love my free sample of simply sunshine balancer my horse looks in fabulous condition for this time of the year after feeding it. His coat is so shiny and he has more energy without gaining any weight! Thank you I will definitely be continuing using it.
Millie Bubb –
I started giving simply sunshine to my 14hh gelding and since I have been giving it to him, his coat is lots more shiny and his eyes are a lot brighter.
Elizabeth Livingstone –
“I’ve bought another bag of SimplySunshine because the horses are looking so well on it and the 7yr old in particular has been so level headed! Both looking fab having only been in for 4 weeks!”
Vicky Oldham –
“I was lucky enough to get to trial the new Equilibrium Simplysunshine on my TB gelding Wabs. I’m lucky as Wabs has always had a shiny coat and is a relatively good doer for a TB, but over the winter months I had noticed his coat was starting to become scurfy and dull and he had developed some scabby lumps on his shoulders, he just didn’t seem to be in tip top condition.
After reading about Simplysunshine I hoped this might give him the boost he needed and also help his skin to get back to its usual condition. After a few weeks I began to notice a difference as his skin wasn’t as scurfy and the scabs seemed to be clearing. After about 4 weeks I had numerous people on my yard comment on how shiny he was, particularly when riding under the floodlights in the arena.
Wabs’ coat has never looked so shiny and glossy and it’s thanks to Simplysunshine! I added the pellets to his normal feed and he loves them! I will continue to feed Simplysunshine as the results are fantastic!”

We have definitely seen an improvement in his general condition & no added fizziness which is always my worry with any supplement

After using simplysunshine, I’m very pleased with the results. My boy looks lovely and shiny and his skin seems to have cleared up (it was rather scurfy and he had scabs on his shoulders.
