Great Results - Horse Loves it Too!
Brought home my very-underweight, hard-keeper appendix Thoroughbred almost two months ago. Not only does he LOVE this feed, but it's already working wonders on his health and overall appearance. His coat shines, and he's finally building some muscle around those bones. Hasn't made him hot either; he is happier and more content than ever! Thanks, MannaPro, for a great product!

Excellent Feed Choice
Very pleased with the results of this feed supplement. All my horses currently on the feed have shiny, beautiful coats (that shed out much faster after winter), without amping them up. More affordable to feed than a good portion of the products on the market containing similar ingredients!

My horse loves this feed
My 28 year old gelding suffered a really bad abscess that stressed him out and took him out of work for about 2 months. He lost a drastic amount of muscle and some weight as well as had very loose,watery stool. We took him off of the grain he had been on, and put him on Renew Gold with Adlib hay, and 4 lbs of alfalfa Timothy cubes. In just over a month he has flourished in his weight gain, and is starting to gain his muscle back. His coat is soft and bright, he has a spark in his eye and I can tell he is definitely beginning to feel better. he also loves the taste which makes it even better!

100% recommend for your hard keeper
I have an appendix gelding who is ulcer prone with food sensitivities. I have tried several options feed wise and the results were that he could not keep on weight (especially in the winter) and he suffered from stomach discomfort/gas colic bouts every week or two. Started him on renew gold mid December and have been very pleased with the results. He started gaining weight within the first week and looks better than I have ever seen this horse. He had one last upset with his stomach on New Years and now here we are colic free since that point and we are in September! He used to be angry when he ate, attacking his meal and kicking out, and now he quietly and contently munches. He likes his renew gold dry as it is or moistened with alfalfa pellets.
My now 2 year old started also getting renew gold a few months ago as he didn't look as great as I thought he should. It absolutely filled him out as well :)

Cannot believe the results!
I posted a few months ago when I started my horse on this feed. I moved him to a different barn since he didn't get good quality hay. The only nutrients he was getting was from Renew Gold. I moved him to the new barn and he gained so much weight in a short amount of time. The Renew Gold totally kicked in with the good forage he was getting. Cannot believe how good he looks now. First picture was August 2016 when I first got him, he was 3. Broke him out and this is him August 2017!

Can see the difference right away!
So happy I bought this! I have used so,many different types of grain and supplements throughout the past year on my 3 yr old. He was gaining weight buy not at the rate I wish he would. I switched to Renew Gold and I can see the difference right away. His coat and body looks so much better. I will continue to use this. Will save you money in the long run! Top picture was before. Bottom was 3 weeks later.

Loving the way my horses look and feel on this!
I started feeding this after seeing results of a friends horses on it. Two of my horses were losing weight and just didn't look good, no matter what or how much I was feeding. I have been feeding this almost 2 months and the difference is amazing. I feed 1 lb a day to each of my 4 horses and they looks and feel amazing. Love this product, just gets hard to find around my area.

Fantastic
We feed this to all our horses. We have a 36 year old mare that was loosing weight. We started her on this and not only has she gained weight, her coat is shiny and she is moving better. This works on all eight of our horses. Keeps the barrel horses from getting hot and they look awesome.

Coolstance
I started feeding my 20 yr old stud horse CoolStance 18 months ago. He was underweight and unkept due to neglect, before I took him back. I decided to try the feed and he has never looked and felt this good. sometime he would act as though he just didn't feel well, or had low blood sugar or something. I wasn't sure which. But after 6 months on CoolStance, he is a different animal. I started back barrel racing with him, hazing steers and performing another event called Steer undecorating. I won two saddles, and five buckles with this big guy last year. I'd like to think my feed program had a lot to do with the stamina he now has,. We have started our season already and iv won money on him already. I used to feed rice bran with my regular sweet feed, I can only imagine how nice your Renew feed is. I cant wait to try it. I'm totally sold on the Coconut feed.

Perfect for all classes of horses!
After trying many ration balancers, and complete feeds, with barely any visible changes in overall health (hoof, coat, skin, hair, etc.), I decided to try Renew Gold. I began feeding it to my then 15 month old colt end of summer 2014; within a 2 to 3 week window I saw changes to his coat, hooves, skin, and muscle building. He went from dull with dandruff to bright with dapples; his hooves became solid, without chips or cracks; and he went from an awkward skinny thing, to building just the right amount of muscle for his age. Since then, he's developed at a steady rate, has the best hoof health my barefoot specialist has seen, and continues to wow his vets. Love this stuff!

Love this feed!
I have been using this for 2 years. I had to order from Smartpak as my regular feed store did not get it in. I would not be without it. All of my horses get the minimum amount, but I have a pssm horse that lives on it. Since feeding him this with some additional flax and vitamins, he has not had an episode of tying up.The horses love it, and it is non-GMO. The company is fantastic to deal with and are happy to answer any questions that you may have.

Best food out there
I've started feeding my weanling filly Renew gold in December 2014 at the age of 7 months up until now and will continue to do so because it is simply the best food on the market. It's non GMO all organic feed without fillers or artificial flavors. Up to this day I truly only had to feed 1/2 lbs to my girl because she's an easy keeper. The change from what she used to get to renew was absolutely amazing. Her immune system is great, blood tests always come back perfect, her coat is black and shiny. She has good mane and hoof growth and she has grown consistently without major growth spurts that would affect her bones or gave her ocd. Since then many friends have come to me for advice on food and I have suggested it to many many people. Just on our barn alone there are altogether 10 people that have switched to it. Their horses are all ages and sizes and it truly works for easy or hard keepers. Older hard keepers gain weight back quickly and noticeably. I also have several friends that put Their horses on it and everyone contacted me shortly after they started feeding it and thanking me for suggesting it. I would never ever feed anything else again. Thank you Phoenix team for providing such an amazing feed to us.

EXCELLENT PRODUCT, pricing is way to high
This product is my favorite feed supplements of all time, and i would buy it but it is was to costly at 16$ more for the same amount of feed. If you will adjust the price ill be happy to buy it!

Excellent All Natural Product
I have a horse that is soy intolerant and this is the only product that I have found that helps him gain muscle and have 'cool' energy with soy. He gets 1.5 pounds a day with a few alfalfa cubes. That's it and it works! No more grain!

put weight on when nothing else did
I have been using this feed for a couple years now. I had a previous barrel horse that I could not put any weight on. I started Renew Gold and in 2 weeks had 100 lb gain. Recently a new horse, barrel horse, and same problem. In same time period put 100 lbs on, shinny coat and loves to eat it! I only feed a pound a day now. 1 lb twice a day to get that 100 lb gain. Low Carb, good fat.. coconut oil is a anti viral, anti bacterial, medium chain fatty acid great for so many things.! NON GMO ingredients. Has quality that few others would ever attempt to make.

GREAT product
I can not say enough good things about this great product!! I feed all my horses from my performance, broodmares and my old ones! My older horses gained weight! My performance horse look amazing. They train better and have the stamina to compete at week long events. They are trained hard and I have no problem keeping even my hardest keepers fat, healthy, happy and focused. I had one that was prone to ulcers but no more!! My farrier even made a comment on how great their feet were! All horses calmed down mentally and were much more trainable!

love this stuff
As a barn owner this stuff has been great we feed it to all hard keepers and the big halter horses to keep them bulked. 1 cup/day does the trick for all of them.
