Amino acids are building blocks for a healthy life. Many body tissues consist of protein, an example are muscles, but also internal organs, connective tissue and skin, hair and hoof horn. Protein is produced by the body from 20 different amino acids. 10 of these are essential, which means that the horse cannot produce them independently, but must continuously take them up in its feed. If only one of these essential amino acids is lacking, for example methionine and lysine, this will adversely affect the formation of the body‘s own protein reserves. During their growth phase, horses required proteinoptimised feed rations. Lucerne provides roughage and is a very valuable supply of protein for horses.

„The selection of Stiefel HERBS won me over. I can create the mixture my horses need at the moment, and the quality of the herbs is wonderful as well.“ (Amelie) „I actively compete with my horses. We do a lot of training. Because of that I was looking forward to support my horses perfectly. Since I feed the E-POWER LIQUID, I can see how my horses feel more energetic and more dynamic. E-Power Liquid gives the support which my horses need." (Bianca)

„I bought my 6-year old Islandic mare Hátign in march this year. Since then I have started to build her up. However the time of coat change seems to be difficult to her and she is very itchy. Since I feed the DIATOMITE I got it under control. I am absolutely impressed by this product and will keep feeding it because I can see how good Hátign feels with it!“ (Aline)

Tiptop products! I am very satisfied with those products especially with the products for horses with METABOLIC DISEASE. (Stefanie) „Stiefel SUSPENAT helped my Valentina a lot with her tendon problem and we now use it regularly. It allowed Valentina and me to jump from A to M level without any further tendon problems. Stiefel Suspenat is one of my favourite Stiefel products and I heartily recommend it!“ (Judith)
