Better4Hooves Hoof Supplement is a truly unique hoof care supplement, created by a farrier with experience at the highest level and perfected with input from vets and specialist equine nutritionists. The result is a natural, science-backed formula designed to deliver real results.

Suitable for all horses and ponies, whether in competition, at grass, or prone to laminitis, this supplement supports optimal hoof health, growth, and strength. The highest-quality ingredients are blended at precise levels to work in a synergistic manner. This allows the active nutrients to be fully absorbed and optimally utilised by the horse’s body, helping to improve hoof horn quality, support healthy growth, and enhance structural integrity.
Better4Hooves is veterinary and farrier approved.

There’s truth in the saying: "No hoof, no horse". Many factors influence hoof structure and soundness, including genetics, environment, and climate – but nutrition is one of the most critical. Both farriers and nutritionists recognise that poor hoof growth and brittle hooves are often linked to nutritional deficiencies. Correcting these imbalances with the right ingredients is key to rehabilitating and maintaining hoof health.

The main nutrients required for strong hoof horn and consistent growth include biotin, zinc, sulphur, quality protein, and calcium.

Biotin, a B-complex vitamin, is commonly present in equine diets at minimum levels, but studies show that higher doses are required for noticeable improvement in hoof horn strength and growth. Supplementing with biotin has been proven to improve hoof structure, but biotin alone is not enough. That’s why Better4Hooves includes 35mg per daily serving – the optimum amount – alongside other essential cofactors. Horses with defects to the stratum externum (outer hoof layers) often benefit from biotin, while those with issues in the stratum medium (inner hoof structures) may require support from additional nutrients such as quality protein and bioavailable calcium.

Zinc is essential for the proper keratinisation of hoof horn. Low zinc levels have been linked to reduced horn strength, but supplementation can help restore normal structure. MSM (Methyl Sulphonyl Methane) is a bioavailable source of organic sulphur, vital for forming sulphur-containing compounds like biotin, and for cross-linkages in keratin, the protein that forms hoof horn. Methionine, an essential sulphur-containing amino acid, must be provided through the diet. It plays a key role in the hoof matrix, supporting strong, resilient hoof tissue.
