Supplements to support (sport)horses

The competition season is in full swing. Horse owners are doing everything they can to keep their horses fit and healthy alongside regular veterinary check-ups and treatments. High-quality supplementation can play a valuable role in this.

The Grovet and Health & Performance supplement range is of the highest quality and carefully formulated, with products designed to complement the horse’s diet and support the overall wellbeing of the sport horse. These supplements are suitable for daily use as well as targeted support during recovery after intensive training, competitions, or injuries.

Below, we highlight a selection from our range, specifically suitable for use during the competition season.
