So, I had a horse that was a bag of bones due to the place I keep him was not feeding him enough, I had been out of town for awhile and was not aware of his condition! I started feeding him myself and after awhile he started to gain his weight back! I had a client who had a very sick horse(vet wanted to put him down) she tried different supplements and and nothing seemed to work! She purchased gleam and gain, started him on that and wow, New horse! He looks amazing, so I purchased some for my horse in February and my horse seems to be doing well onit! I also have a slow feeder bag bag from smartpak and he had destroyed two, but this one is holding up great! So I highly recommend gleam and gain and also the slow feeder! Can't go wrong, great company and great products! Great to do business with you, Sande Stepien, Glendale, Az

This stuff works.
I have a few really hard keepers in the barn that no matter what I fed I just couldn't put the weight on. After switching feed brands and trying some other supplements I happened upon Gleam and Gain and wow! I'm sure glad I did. Reading through the other reviews I decided it was worth a shot. My thoroughbreds have never looked better. This really helps fill in that troublesome top line area. I have my Quarter Horse stallion on this product as well. It's 10 degrees outside and he looks like he could go hit the show pen tomorrow. Another plus is this product id recommended for fertility. I'm interested to see how this will affect his numbers this spring. If you're looking for an affordable weight gain supplement that works look no further.

Added weight & dapples in just 2.2 months!
I’m very pleased with this supplement. I needed to add weight to my 5 year old warmblood that I just imported. After a month I took him down to just one scoop. He was adding muscle and weight. After 2.2 months everyone was commenting on his dapples. I’ve never had a dark bay with dapples, I’m very pleased with this

Magic!
My recently retired 20 year old Oldenburg has always been a hard keeper, but last year when we tried moving him out to pasture, he quickly lost 100 lbs. I then tried Purina senior, LMF senior, and Triple Crown Senior (and we moved him from the shared pasture to his own big paddock where he wouldn’t be bullied) combined with Cool Calories. Eventually I settled on Triple Crown Senior and decided to give Gleam and Gain a shot... It was the magic combination for him! He’s now just on a single scoop a day from maintenance, and I feel like the tub lasts a long time. Photos here were taken six months apart. I’ve had him fifteen years and never seen him so dappled before! People tell me he looks like he’s ten years old—not twenty!

Weight gain
I bought this for my horse who has a bad coat and has a hard time putting weight on. His coat has gotten slightly better and he has gained wait.

Amazing Results!
I have used this product on two older horses that arrived in such poor condition that one was nicknamed Scarecrow by my husband. Weight gain was steady, and the bloom on their coats was incredible! I have never seen dapples and shine like this product provides. There is not another on the market at any price...best value out there!

Helps a lot
This is a great product to add to your grain to maintain or gain weight and does help with the coat.

I love this stuff
I have a couple of very hard-keeper mares that I'm already giving the best feed available but they just never seem to gain weight. Somebody suggested I try this, which is simply a powder of empty fat calories so I don't have to risk giving them too much feed. In 3 months time, they were like new horses--completely filled out better than ever before. It smells really sweet and apparently makes the feed taste sweet because the one finicky mare gobbles up her feed much better than ever before. She used to take a couple of hours picking at her feed. Now her feeder is licked clean in about 15 minutes.

Skeleton to Fat!!!
We help Rescue horses of all ages type and size. NOTHING gets the poor babies back to health better than Gleam and Gain. It's great for older horses with dental issues a small well. My 24 yr old stallion is shiny and fat.

High quality fat supplement that my horses love
My skinny thoroughbreds loved the taste of this and steadily put on weight and muscle thanks to Gleam & Gain! I would highly recommend to anyone with a hard keeper.

I bought this but never saw any benefit. Used for over 1 1/2 months. I showed my vet today and he told me not to use it as probably not a trusted med site where this product was made so it went in the trash

Loving the results!
I am a huge fan of stabilized rice bran, but Gleam and Gain kicks it up a notch! I have an ex race Arabian who always dumps weight in the winter and looks like a rescue horse by spring, no lie. I usually spend spring and summer putting as much weight as possible on him to get him thru the winter. I started him on Gleam and Gain 6 weeks ago, in addition to 1 cup corn oil/day and pellets. He's gaining weight in WINTER! Wooooot! Can't wait to see his summer coat, I'm sure it'll be dappled mahogany bay!

Best coat supplement on the market.
I have used this product for years. Forget color enhancing supplements, you get get rich color and dapples on all colors! Great for mares and foals. Keeps my show horses looking their best. Best value for the dollar

Used this product multiple times
I have used this product multiple times on Thoroughbreds that have both been very hard keepers. Absolutely works! I have done anywhere from two/three scoops per day pending horse and the gain I want to achieve. They always eat it and truly makes a difference.

Not sure if it works, my horse wouldn't eat
I tried this fat supplement for one of my horses. Unfortunately, she refused to eat it and just picked around her feed which defeats the purpose of having a hard keeper. Even my "clean up anything" gelding wouldn't eat it :(

Expected more than I got for the money
The product was good, palatable to my horse and it appears he did gain a bit of weight on it. However the container was smaller than I expected, and on two scoops daily, it didnt last very long. I feel like for the money you can get a better product.

Works ok
I have been feeding this for less than 60 days. He is a growing yearling so I have not noticed amazing results but again he is growing like a weed so it's hard to say if it is or is not working. I'll re evaluate in 30 days.

Amazing Results
Our 15 yr. old Holsteiner gelding arrived rough coated and very underweight in late June of this year. The change in just 60 days was remarkable...and he is now on the maintenanace dose. He is at his optimal weight, with big dapples and a shiny coat. We had similar results with our 18 yr. old TB mare, who is maintaining her weight for the first time ever, and is the shiniest flea bitten gray I have ever seen...awesome product, and very reasonable in price. Kudos to SmartPak for carrying this product...❤️.❤️.❤️

To be fair...
To be fair, I tried this on an incredibly picky old mare that has lost condition. She did accept this supplement better than many I've tried, however, I saw no appreciable improvement in her condition. Admittedly, I only used a 28 day supply, so I hesitate to be too critical of it. I would certainly consider trying it again in the future.

Accomplished my goals
I have a 22 yo warmblood who dropped a bunch of weight at a new boarding facility which had limited grass turnout. He's always been a chunk, even lean, but I was seeing ribs for the first time (TB sire Holsteiner). After moving to a new place with daily turnout, I added this product as well as Tri-Amino to his supplements, which also include Smartcombo Senior. I liked the fat content and sources as well as the prebiotics. I can't say this worked wonders on its own, but he has gained back in one month what he lost in three, and looks fantastic again. I wouldn't have been as aggressive about putting the weight back on had he not been an older guy looking at winter -- I was worried something age-related may have been going on, but it appears to have been a matter of nutrition. Full disclosure, I also did a fecal egg count (zero) and gave him Zimectrin Gold to clear any parasitic load. Also had his teeth floated. Hope this is helpful!

Great product at a great price
I've had my 16 year old TB gelding on this for 2 months now. Seems after a week his coat looked amazing, he's definitely putting weight on and his muscling is amazing. Very happy with this product

Has helped my horses feet immensely!
I am not certain this has helpes much with her weight because she has been on grass all summer. But my tb mares skin and coat look good this year. The most impressive thing this suppliment has done for my horse is, it has made her feet so much healthier. I have no. Of the usual cracking and breaking problems we have had in the past. I have had her for 12 years. I am very happy to have found something that works so well. Even if by accident.

So far, so good!
This product is great. I've noticed changes in my horse's weight and coat within the first month of using. I will continue using this product! I love that it arrives each month without me having to order it yeah time. Smartpak does a fantastic job also with keeping in touch with you about your order.

Shiny horse, gaining weight
Loving this so far (2 months in). My horse's coat is super shiny and, more importantly, he's gaining weight. He's a 16 year old, large framed, 17 h, lean guy and Gleam & Gain has been part of a muscle and weight building recipe (along w. grass and alfalfa, senior feed, rice bran, and oil) that seems to be working well.

Awesome!!
This stuff worked wonders on my hard to keep Ottb. He is a stall weaver and is highly prone to ulcers and that doesn't stop this stuff from putting the weight on. I had him on the high dose for quite a while and was so pleased I cut him back. I ended up having to put him back on the higher dose that winter I stopped; but now he has finally kept the weight on and I now only have him on the smartcombo ultra.
