NATURAL SALT LICKS

If there is one thing horses love—and absolutely need—it is a natural salt lick. However, many salt licks that horse lovers find on the market are incredibly expensive, heavy, have been baked to lose all minerals and nutrients, or simply can be too easily bitten. 

The wonderful thing about Himalayan natural salt licks that have been mined from some of the best mines in the foothills of the Himalayas is that they are rock solid. It takes incredible miner strength and special tools to wrench these solid rocks of healthy salt from the earth—and no horse can chew through these bricks. 

Natural Salt Licks play a significant role as simple and cost-effective mineral supplement for pets and breeding animals, as well as wildlife. The animal helps itself to the salt lick instinctively according to its individual need.Natural Salt Licks are available in different sizes, pure or fortified with minerals and trace elements as well as in different flavors.

The purest form of salt you can give your horse. Natural and as pure as the day it was mined high up in the Himalayan mountains. Horses and ponies require supplementary salt on a daily basis. Research shows that salt is the one nutrient that horses will self-supplement to balance their diet. Himalayan Natural Salt Licks hung in the stable and field allow access to the purest form of salt, without unnatural flavors that can encourage greediness!

Mass produced natural salt licks are produced using salt with minerals added in the manufacturing process. Himalayan natural salt licks are literally ‘rock hard’, this means that animals are unable to bite chunks off the block, a problem that can occur with the softer pressed natural salt lick.These salt licks are also much more weather resistant, which means they can be safely left outside in the field for farm animals to self dose. Our experience has shown that farm animals and pets prefer these to other salt licks. Farmers have historically provided natural salt licks for their cattle, horses, and other herbivores to encourage healthy growth and development. A natural salt lick is a deposit of mineral salts used by animals to supplement their nutrition, ensuring that they get enough minerals in their diets. A wide assortment of animals, primarily herbivores, use salt lick to get essential nutrients lick calcium, magnesium, sodium and zinc. Himalayan natural Salt Licks for farm animals are obviously distinctive by their color, however it is not just this that sets them apart from other licks. We like to describe them as salt licks with nothing added or nothing taken out and we believe they are one of the purest forms of salt (sodium chloride) available.

Features of these natural salt licks, which make them distinct from ordinary sea salt licks

• Long-lasting for horses, livestock and other pets to enjoy for hours on end. 
• They are rock hard, so horses, livestock and other pets cannot bite pieces out of them.
• Each salt lick comes ready to hang with a handy rope. Hang one undercover at a gate, fence, trough, tree, stall, stable or trailer. 
• These Himalayan natural salt licks make the perfect unique gift for animal lovers.

Without salt, animals could get sick. Every mammal requires salt. It is actually a necessary nutrient in our diets! Horses and other animals, like humans, lose minerals from their bodies as it is carried out in their sweat...one of the most abundant of these minerals is salt...Horses and other animals often lose lots of salt during very strenuous workouts. So, some owners try to help them replenish the lost salt by providing a natural salt lick. This helps your horse or animal to regain the lost salt quickly, however there are more reasons. Salt often makes you want to drink, right, so, it's similar for horses. 

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 

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.

Himalayan Horse Salt Lick, 100% natural mineral salt mined from the ancient Himalayan mountains, helps replace lost electrolytes. The rose pink color is a result of the high mineral content of iron, potassium and magnesium, all vital for maintaining good health. Safe for all wildlife, including horses, white tail deer, elk, caribou and more. Features a hole carved through the center to attach 3-1/2"L rope (included) for hanging; no need for a metal holder. Also fits inside horse toys. Weather resistant; ideal for outdoors.

Horses deficient in salt will lick or chew on mangers, fences, dirt, rocks and other objects. They also develop depraved appetites, rough hair coat and reduced growth. Mares experience reduced milk production, according to reports from the Mississippi Station. Horses with severe salt deficiency, brought about by a low salt intake and considerable sweating, become fatigued and exhausted. Horses that sweat profusely can lose as much as 82.5 grams of sodium per day. Consequently, level of activity and degree of heat stress has a greater affect on salt requirement in horses than any other farm animal species.

The need for salt varies considerably, depending on a horse's level of work, riding or heat stress. Because sweat contains about 0.7% salt, the more a horse exercises the more salt is lost via sweat and the more it is needed in the diet. We here at Organic Beauty recommend offering Himalayan Salt free choice or by the scoop to your horse and giving the supplement, Provision, to ensure a healthier horse.
