Whats the difference?
Which should you buy, Belinda’s Premium Loose Lick® supplement or Belinda’s Amazing Minerals Plus®? Below is a simple comparison of both our Belinda’s vitamin and mineral products to make shopping for your equine easier.
We personally use both products, some horses getting Belinda’s Amazing Minerals Plus® (BAM+) in their feeds and some horses having access to Belinda’s Premium Loose Lick® supplement (BLL) in their stable or paddock.
You can also use both, providing your horses Belinda’s Premium Loose Lick® supplement ad lib, while feeding the recommended daily dose of Belinda’s Amazing Minerals Plus® in a hard feed. This way they are getting a minimum serve of vitamins, minerals, toxin binder and prebiotic and they can top up on vitamins and minerals where necessary.
