Low starch treat has 80 precent less sugar than leading brand

St. Louis, MO (Sept. 11, 2017) — A new, all-natural horse treat from Manna Pro has hit retail shelves and online sites, bringing horse owners a low-sugar, low-starch option that can be safely used for training or simply bonding with their animals, without the negative effects of too much sugar and starch.  Nutrigood^TM Low-Sugar Snax is ideal for all horses, including overweight horses, horses with metabolic challenges, or for owners who want to limit sugar and starch intake.

Nutrigood has no added sugar or molasses, yet is proven to be highly palatable to horses. In third-party testing with more than 1,000 horses, palatability for the treats scored very high.

“Nutrigood has all of the flavor of a traditional treat, but without all the sugar,” said Carolyn Adams, Senior Brand Manager at Manna Pro. “Our research showed a strong interest among horse owners in a treat that offers a combination of flavor and low sugar, so we felt confident that we should pursue the development of Nutrigood. After more than a year of tweaking the ingredients and testing the palatability, we’re excited to bring this unique product to the equine marketplace.”

The new horse treat was formulated through a collaboration of industry experts including Bill Sadler, PhD, Director of Product Development at Manna Pro and Rob McCoy, PhD, Vice President of Nutrition at Manna Pro
