Description
xSpeedi-Beet Quick Soaking Sugar-Beet Flakes provide a practical, fiber-rich feed option that unlocks energy through hind-gut fermentation. When you open a 44 lb bag, you'll notice the flakes are light, airy, and ready to soak—no molasses added. Thanks to a specialized cooking process, these beet pulp flakes soak in about 10 minutes, a fraction of the time required by traditional beet pulps.
Fast, flexible feeding for busy routines
Ready to serve means easier daily routines. The product is 95% sugar-free and very low in starch, focusing on high-quality beet pulp shreds. It's a safe and healthy option for horses that need to limit sugars and starches. Animals that can become fizzy or overly excited, or those managed for conditions like laminitis or cushings, may benefit from this calm energy source.
- Fast soak time: 10 minutes vs up to 24 hours for some alternatives.
- No added molasses, keeping palatability while avoiding extra sugars.
- High-fiber, low-lignin content supports digestion and satiety.
Hydration, chewing and gut health
As it absorbs water, Speedi-Beet expands to about five times its weight, which can help hydration and chewing comfort during meals. It is a good fiber source with soluble components like pectins that are gently digested and can support gut function. The soluble fiber also has a prebiotic feel, helping beneficial gut bacteria thrive alongside a balanced diet.
- Hydrates well: expands to 5x its weight in water.
- Soft, mash-friendly texture supports easier chewing and intake.
- Soluble fiber and pectin provide potential gut-health benefits without heat buildup.
Versatility and feeding strategies
Speedi-Beet is versatile as a base feed or as a carrier for supplements and medications. It can be fed in smaller amounts as a weight-friendly supplement or in larger quantities as a source of fiber and steady energy. It pairs with other feeds and balancers to reduce reliance on hard feeds and risky forage sources.
- Palatable and digestible; suitable for horses across a range of needs.
