Salt from the Himalayan mountains is nourished by the nutrient-rich water and soil in the area, and contains upwards of 84 minerals, including calcium, magnesium, potassium, copper, and iron. Calcium promotes muscle strength and nourishes the bones, leading to stronger and healthier bones, joints, teeth, and hooves. Magnesium     is particularly wonderful for your active horse, providing relief for tired and aching muscles. Potassium is essential for a strong heart, while Iron keeps your horse’s blood healthy.

    Other health benefits include:
    Regulation of Water: Himalayan salt is natural and authentic, and the crystalline shape of each piece of salt keeps its original integrity - it doesn’t absorb amount of water that traditional salt does,which means less bloating and water retention for your horse (and less work for you!).
    Healthy Blood Sugar Levels: Your horse will achieve and maintain healthier levels of blood sugar.
    No More Muscle Cramps: Since Himalayan salts help regulate electrolyte balance, muscle cramps from running, jumping, and generally straining are kept to a minimum.
    Better Blood Pressure: When consumed with water, these salts are essential in regulating blood pressure.

    Now, you can see how Himalayan salt licks are a much healthier alternative for you horse than traditional salt licks. Himalayan salt licks aren’t just healthier for your horse, however - they make your life much easier, so you can spend more quality time with your horse doing the things you really love to do.
