Product Overview
Easily digestible source of cool energy
CoolStance® is a premium quality coconut meal that is dried, baked, and ground to provide a “cool” source of calories for horses. This “cool” source of energy comes from quality protein and Medium Chain Triglycerides (MCT) found in the coconut meal. These fatty acids are readily digestible and also support skin and coat health. Additionally, this highly palatable supplement can be fed dry or as a mash. Finally, CoolStance® is low on the glycemic index as it contains less than 11% Non-Structural Carbohydrates (NSC), making it a great choice for horses that need additional calories but need to be on low sugar diets or tend to exhibit excitable behavior. Please note: days supply will vary depending on the amount being fed.

Great product for sensitive hard keepers
Before CoolStance, I struggled to keep weight on an ulcer-prone super sensitive high play drive young gelding in light work. Grain and soy aggravated his ulcers, alfalfa turned him into demon spawn, and beet pulp shreds were intolerably yucky. I finally started seeing positive weight gain when I combined Coolstance with beet pulp shreds (which apparently makes beet pulp magically delicious), plus flax and a complete vitamin-mineral supplement in addition to free choice grass hay. I feed him the maximum he will finish twice a day, which turns out to be 3 cups of Coolstance plus 1 quart of soaked/rinsed beet pulp per meal. Over the course of six months or so, he developed a top line for the first time since I've owned him, his attitude has improved, his coat is shiny and dappled, and he spends significantly less of his free time forcing his pasture-mates to play with him endlessly. We ran out once recently due to a shortage and he went on hunger strike, his stomach tucked up, and his positive attitude quickly went down the drain. I'm praying that they never quit making this and that Smartpak never quits carrying it as delivery is so much more convenient than driving over an hour to a "local" feed store.
Other reviews mention a bad smell but I personally think it smells like a delicious coconut dessert. The other horses love it too and are sad that they don't also need extra calories.

Great for Weight
My boss uses this product on all of her horses and has for quite some time. It is absolutely amazing for keeping on their weight while not making them hot which was an issue for some of them. I personally hate the smell but it is a great product and highly recommend!

Helped my horse gain much needed weight
My horse lost a lot of weight after moving to a new barn. To help him gain back the weight and muscle he lost, I decided to give this a try. At first he was a bit reluctant to eat it, but after a week or so, he willingly accepted this in his bucket. Almost immediately I noticed he had an intense shine to his coat, and within a few months over the winter, he managed to gain back all the weight and muscle he lost, plus some! I am really happy with this feed and how much it has helped my horse. At 23 years old, he looks wonderful again!

Great supplement for weight management
I have been feeding CoolStance for several years. I own Arabians, who are known for being easy keepers. I do long distance trail rides, so although my Arabs don't need much food, they do need quality protein, but I don't need hyped-up. hot, horses. CoolStance is just coconut meal, nothing else. Other coconut supplements have flax seed or soy products added. I have found both of these to be inflammatory to my horses and also made them "hot". CoolStance does not make them nutty and gives them the extra protein I was looking for to balance out the diet (they get coastal hay and Triple Crown Balancer Gold). The coconut meal also adds a lot of fat which really helps with coat and hoof health. All of them have beautiful coats and their hooves are healthy and strong. CoolStance is also low carb/sugar, so it is safe for my IR horses. I only feed about 1-2 cups per day, since that is all my horses need to have the energy I need for them and to keep their toplines looking great. I would definitely recommend this product. I do add water to it so it mixes easier with their Balancer. All of my horses enjoy the taste. Since it is not readily available, ordering it from SmartPak with free shipping is a no brainer! I love SmartPak!

Love CoolStance!!
I love CoolStance! I have an older gelding who has some trouble keeping weight on. I tried CoolStance because a trainer I started riding for swears by it. It is high in fat but low in sugar which is what I was looking for. You have to add water to make a mash which is easy enough. I mix in some other supplements and grain and my horse loves it! He eats every last drop. His weight has improved so I know the product is working. Just know you need to keep it in cool, dry storage so it doesn't go bad.

Metal Found in Bag
This is the first time I have purchased Coolstance. I fed a third of the bag with no issues but then I found a sizable piece of metal that looked like it went through processing. I was the size of one of the bigger pieces of copra in the bag, jagged and bent. After finding that, I can't continue feeding this.

Keeps weight on!
Dr Geoff Tucker changed my horses life. She is a 25 year old hard keeper, very few teeth and PPID. I tried everything to keep weight on her- beet pulp, calf manna, bio sponge for squirts, supplements. Everything. Every winter she had the squirts. It would freeze on her tail and hocks. It made made her miserable which made me sad.
Dr. T gave the no grain challenge. She gets 1lb SBM- dehulled and oil removed. Pure protein, 1lb coolstance and alfalfa pellets to make a warm mash; split into 3 meals a day.
She loves the coolstance so much. Because she wasn’t under weight I only give a pound a day and she has maintained all winter. So the bag lasts 3 months. Her poop has never been ‘apples’ in the the 5 years I’ve had her; until this diet. I waited 6 months to write a review. Grain free has been so good for all our horse but for those that need the calories CoolStance will always be my go to. It’s the only brand with no added ag. byproducts or grain.

Great for skin allergies
My 28 year old gelding has always suffered from hypersensitivity to insects resulting in hives, mane and tail rubbing and just miserable summers here in FL. He’s been on Cool Stance w Medicine Bag Complete mineral/vitamin supplement for two months along with daily grooming and his skin allergies have disappeared. No more crusty mane and tail and his midline has completely healed.

Great fat source for senior horses
I was happy to find this available here. My hoof care person recommended it to me for my senior mare (33 year old Arabian) since I wanted to stop feeding bagged senior feed. I give a little to my other older geldings too (mixed into their supplements bucket) and it makes their coats shine. A little goes a long way.

Horses love it!
I have been using Coolstance for over a year, and my 2 love it. It is a great way to get water in the horses and for my old [almost 30] guy, it gives him an easy to eat meal.
