Global Herbs Restore
A few months ago I would have said a lot of the things above - Formula4Feet, micronised linseed, brewers yeast, charcoal, magnesium but now I just use Thunderbrook feed which replaces all of those so Thunderbrook feed it is!

Selenevite E - a higher percentage of all mineral than most other supplement- works out better value and the oldies thrive with it.
Micronised Linseed . coat, joint hooves - great in large doses for poor dooers.
Herbs - various ones depending on the case , natural and easy to get hold of.

Equibites - great for hand feeding some vits and mins to greedy ponies!! Can be used as healthy treats with clicker!
Magnesium Oxide as I believe this really helped my mare recover from laminitis. I bought this from Natural Horse Supplies - who I really like and do buy other herbs from there when needed!
Pure Feed Balance: Balance is the molasses free feed balancer containing optimum levels of vitamins, minerals and essential amino acids, plus a unique combination of Brewers Yeast and the prebiotic ProfeedĀ® consisting of short chain Fructo-oligasaccharides (FOS)
I like this as it is molasses free and so I can use it to supplement my Dartmoor ensuring he has his vits and mins without a huge feed. I also am very pro prebiotics for the gut and believe they really help and this balancer contains these

Magnesium (heavy) from Natural Horse Supplies - 1 desert spoon every night. Lasts 90days all for Ā£11.99
Himalayan salt block - I like it because its natural and there are no calories.

Global Herbs in general, closely followed by NAF's Pink Powder which I would never be without. I also use various herbs and spices from Cotswold Herbs. And if I can sneak in a fourth, Happy Tummy's charcoal.
The products that I have used with success from GH are Skratch (each year sweet itch symptoms improve hugely), MagCalm (does exactly what it's meant to!) and Black Salt (general mineral, and aids with sweet itch control).

Salt, micronized linseed and brewers yeast (sweet itch)
Don't have a "line" I'm afraid.

Winergy Ventil-ate - good stuff for controlling/eliminating COPD cough.
Vitex Tincture(for Cushings) from Jackie Taylor of MetabolicHorse, our feed expert on this forum.
MightyMag(our forage is low in magnesium) also from Jackie Taylor
Boswellia Serrata(safe long term bute alternative for Cushings/ lamanitcs etc) also from Jackie Taylor. This has been a boon for my 30 year old Cushingoid boy who is now arthritic as well.

I too have stopped using supplements since I switched to Thunderbrook However I have had great results before with Global Herbs Restore (usually use it around worming time), fennel for tummy discomfort and Global Herb's old age. Hilton Herbs' Veteran mix is great too

I love Equine Answers. Their Equiflex HA and 365 are brilliant.
Also like Natural Horse Supplies, as I know their products aren't padded out with anything and prices are very reasonable, service is super.

Mag Ox is all I use. GN has great feet and is alot calmer since being on it. Also our soil is deficient in magnesuim. I have a sugar-free mineral lick but she only has a go on it occassionally, so I assume she gets what she needs most of the time.
