Emerald Valley Equine and Amanda, I want to thank you for introducing me to Speedi-Beet. Last spring I started all of my horses on Speedi-Beet in hopes of increasing their hydration and cutting down on colic symptoms that each of our horses had experienced the previous 2 springs and falls. I spent an enormous amount in vet bills, 1 of our horses spent 5 days in the hospital with unexplained colic symptoms, all they did was hydrate her, watch her and send her home. They thought 2 of our horses might have ulcers, the first one I treated, when they said the second one had ulcers. I had him scoped, no ulcers. I had at least 3 vets out trying to find out what the problem was, none of them had any idea, they looked at our hay, we talked in great details about their feeding schedule, work habits, barn routine. None of our horses ever showed any symptoms of being dehydrated, but I did notice that some days they would not drink a lot and I knew I had to do something about that. Being a boarding facility and having teenagers work for me, regular beet pulp scared me. I loved the fact that Speedi-Beet expanded in 5-10 minutes. We soak our Speedi-Beet in about a 1  8 ratio, to give them as much water as possible and the horses love it! We feed it am & pm year round. We have not had 1 vet call for our horses since starting on the Speedi-Beet. I would highly recommend Speedi-Beet! Karen, Whispering Wind Farm, NH

In September of 2010 Emerald Valley and the Elburn Co-Op took Speedi-Beet to Grand Prix Equestrian Facility, LLC to let them try it on their 65 horses, including international/FEI dressage competitors trained by Kim and Yvonne Barteau's KYB Dressage program. Since then, barn manager Jessica Lawton, has made the decision to switch all the horses over to Speedi-Beet from the regular unmolassed beet pulp. Here are her comments:

All of the 65 horses really like the taste of Speedi-Beet, even the ones that don't much like the taste of regular beet pulp. Because Speedi-Beet soaks so quickly, we are able to add hot water to it and have it still warm when we feed it. We were going through a full 50 pound bag of regular beet pulp per day to accommodate all the horses needs, which means 7 bags per week. Now we are using about one and a half to two of the forty-four pound bags of Speedi-Beet per week, getting the same amount of feed. At the international level and even at the enthusiast level, owners and managers spend so much money on tack, equipment and competition, yet we do not seem to rise to those same standards with our horse's feed.

With Speedi-Beet, I know I am feeding a superior product, using less storage space, saving time, money and I have the peace of mind knowing Speedi-Beet is 95% sugar free.

"My horses have been on Evitex for two weeks now with nothing short of a miracle response. Evitex has been a lifesaver for both of my Grand Prix horses in different ways, one of my horses is only 10 and I would like to manage his Cushing's symptoms without prescription medications. Steffen and I have our own training business plus managing our entire farm of 65 horses with three other trainers. I had nine horses on chaff hay for about 6 months, but a lot of them stopped eating it. I am going to switch all of these horses over to Speedi-Beet, and the whole-food nutritionist I use for my horses recommended Fibre-Beet. As a side note, one of my vets ordered a case of Evitex for his practice and is almost completely sold out already. He is quite impressed with the results." Shannon Peters
