Keeping horses occupied at competition
*When compared to other varieties in the Equilibrium munch range.
What inspired the Litemunch fibre block?
As a company focused on the horses’ wellbeing, we thought it was only right to look at the mental and nutritional wellbeing of our equine friends too! Litemunch is ideal for those on a low sugar or controlled sugar diet, and those who could benefit from digestive support.
What is in Litemunch?
Not just a simple fibre block, Litemunch fibre blocks are made from lush lucerne which is super tasty, nutritious, and ideal to support digestive health.
It also contains additional spearmint, known for its digestive benefits and appetising taste.
Code: EQB0006

The following details average vitamin & mineral figures produced by the British Association of Green Crop Driers to give an indication of the levels found within Lucerne: Calcium % 1.37, Phosphorous % 0.29, Magnesium % 0.21, Potassium % 1.90, Sodium % 0.14%, Sulphur % 0.35%, Cobalt mg/kg 0.28, Iodine mg/kg 0.49, Copper mg/kg 6.90, Iron mg/kg 145, Manganese mg/kg 25.4, Molybdenum mg/kg 1.00, Zinc mg/kg 22.4, Selenium mg/kg 0.14, Vit E iu/kg 34, B-carotene (Vit A) iu/kg 31.2.
Use up to 1 block per day per 100kg bodyweight, for example a maximum of 5 blocks per day for a 5kg horse. Can be fed whole from the ground, feed bucket, manger or from a munch net. Always ensure plenty of clean fresh water is available. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Not suitable for elderly or dentally challenged horses unless well soaked.
There is no right or wrong way, it’s whatever works for your horse.
As it’s so tasty, most horses are keen to try gobble it down. Feeding Litemunch in a specialised munch net can help slow down those eager feeders. You can also place it in the middle of their normal haynet, so they spend time trying to hunt down the tasty treat!
For oldies whose teeth don’t quite do as well as they used to, or all horses in the winter, soaking the munch block will see it evolve into a warm, tasty bowl full of delicious goodness, right in front of your eyes!
It can of course be fed in the field or stable on its own on the ground or in a bowl. The highly compressed nature of the block will naturally slow eating down and act as a boredom breaker too!
All horses can enjoy a Litemunch fibre block due to its high fibre and low sugar content, including those prone to laminitis. It is particularly useful:
As a boredom breaker
Encouraging natural foraging in the stable when turnout is limited
To support the digestive system
To slow food intake with its highly compressed nature
As a smaller (and tastier!) alternative to hay when travelling
Keeping horses occupied at competition
Horses on box rest
As a distraction when companions go out
