Full details
KM Elite Flaxseed (Linseed) Oil is designed for horse owners seeking to improve their equine partner's coat condition, skin health, and systemic well-being. This cold-pressed supplement serves as an ideal nutritional balancer for horses on cereal-based diets, providing essential Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids to support joint mobility and digestive health. While highly effective for general maintenance, users should be aware that consistent, long-term feeding is required to see noticeable improvements in coat luster and skin sensitivity management.

FAQs
Can I feed this to all horses?
Yes, it is suitable for horses of all ages and disciplines, particularly those on cereal-based diets.
How often should I feed the oil?
For best results, it should be fed daily as part of the horse's regular meal routine.
Does this replace a balanced feed?
No, it is a nutritional supplement meant to balance fatty acid levels and should be fed alongside a base diet of forage and essential nutrients.
Is the production method really better?
Yes, cold-pressing avoids heat damage, keeping the natural properties of the flaxseed intact and providing higher bioavailability.
What is the primary benefit for skin health?
The Omega fatty acids help support the skin's natural barrier, which can reduce sensitivity and irritation.
Troubleshooting
Horse is hesitant to eat the feed with the oil.
Introduce the oil in much smaller quantities, starting with just a teaspoon, and gradually increase to the full recommended dose over several days.
Oil appears to have turned cloudy or changed smell.
Oil that has been stored in high heat or sunlight may oxidize; discard the product if it develops a strong, rancid odor.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin using the oil, slowly introduce it into the horse's diet over the course of one week to ensure palatability and digestive comfort. Store the bottle in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the freshness of the cold-pressed oils. Ensure the cap is tightly sealed after every use to prevent oxidation, which can degrade the fatty acid profile. KM Elite Flaxseed Oil is compatible with most standard equine supplements, but always consult with an equine nutritionist if you are already feeding a highly fortified balancer to avoid excessive intake of certain minerals or oils.
