Advanced Nutritional Support for Metabolic Health
A horse's metabolism involves several interconnected processes that regulate energy production, nutrient utilisation and normal physiological function.
Some horses and ponies require particularly careful nutritional management because they gain weight easily or have metabolic sensitivities.
Hi Form EquiMetaBalance has been developed to complement an appropriate feeding program by supporting normal metabolic balance.
The formula combines botanical ingredients with selected nutrients involved in normal metabolic processes.
Supports Healthy Endocrine Function
The endocrine system produces hormones that help regulate numerous bodily functions, including energy metabolism.
EquiMetaBalance is formulated to provide nutritional support for normal endocrine function.
Its blend of herbs, magnesium, chromium and L-tyrosine is designed to complement a balanced diet and appropriate management practices.
Important: EquiMetaBalance is not a treatment for equine metabolic syndrome, insulin dysregulation or pituitary pars intermedia dysfunction (PPID).
Horses with suspected endocrine disease should be assessed by a veterinarian.
Supports Normal Sugar Metabolism
Maintaining normal glucose metabolism is an important part of equine metabolic health.
EquiMetaBalance contains chromium and magnesium, which are involved in metabolic processes.
The formula also contains cinnamon, fenugreek and other botanical ingredients traditionally used in nutritional formulations.
These ingredients are included to support the manufacturer's overall metabolic-support formulation.
The supplement should be used alongside an appropriate diet rather than as a replacement for controlling sugar and starch intake.
Ideal for Easy Keepers & Ponies
Some horses and ponies maintain body condition on relatively small amounts of feed.
These animals are often described as easy keepers or good doers.
EquiMetaBalance may be suitable for inclusion in feeding programs for:
- Native and hardy pony breeds
- Easy-keeping horses
- Ponies on restricted grazing
- Horses requiring careful body condition management
- Horses on controlled forage-based diets
- Animals requiring additional nutritional support for normal metabolic function

| 500kg | 20g |
| 600kg and above | 30g |
These feeding rates are published by Hi Form Australia.
Measuring Guide
The Australian manufacturer states that 1 spoon = approximately 5g.
| Daily Feeding Amount | Approximate Number of 5g Spoons |
|---|---|
| 10g | 2 spoons |
| 20g | 4 spoons |
| 30g | 6 spoons |
For accurate feeding, use a suitable scale rather than relying entirely on scoop measurements.
For horses between the listed bodyweights, consult Hi Form or a qualified equine nutritionist for the appropriate feeding rate.
How to Feed EquiMetaBalance
- Determine your horse or pony's bodyweight.
- Measure the recommended daily quantity.
- Place the supplement into a small amount of suitable feed.
- Slightly dampen the feed.
- Mix thoroughly to distribute the powder evenly.
- Feed as part of the horse's regular nutritional program.
Always provide clean, fresh drinking water.
How Long Will a 250g Pack Last?
| Horse Bodyweight | Daily Feeding Rate | Approximate Supply |
|---|---|---|
| 300kg | 10g | 25 days |
| 500kg | 20g | 12.5 days |
| 600kg and above | 30g | 8.3 days |
These estimates are calculated from the manufacturer's recommended feeding rates.
Supporting Horses with Metabolic Sensitivities
Appropriate nutritional management is particularly important for horses and ponies with metabolic concerns.
A suitable program may involve:
- Monitoring bodyweight and body condition
- Selecting appropriate forage
- Managing pasture access
- Controlling dietary sugar and starch
- Avoiding unnecessary calorie intake
- Providing appropriate exercise when safe
- Ensuring adequate vitamin and mineral nutrition
- Regular veterinary monitoring where indicated
EquiMetaBalance is intended to complement these measures, not replace them.
Metabolic Health & Laminitis Risk
Horses with insulin dysregulation may have an increased risk of laminitis.
Appropriate dietary management and veterinary monitoring are essential for these animals.
EquiMetaBalance provides nutritional support for normal metabolism but is not a treatment or prevention for laminitis.
If a horse shows signs of hoof pain, reluctance to move, increased digital pulses or an abnormal stance, seek urgent veterinary attention.
