I didn’t think I’d ever get excited about something as simple as salt, but here we are. Somewhere between fly season, heat waves, and my gelding refusing to drink like a responsible adult, I stumbled into a love affair with a crumbled-up, garlic-infused mineral mix called Redmond Gold. And honestly? It changed everything.
It Started With a Stubborn Horse (Don’t They All?)
My
I’d tried all the tricks: molasses in the water, soaked beet pulp, even those weird little electrolytes that smell like sour Gatorade. No dice.
Then someone at the barn handed me a scoop of Redmond Gold—this dusty, garlicky-looking stuff—and said, “Just try it. It’s salt and garlic. For horses. They love it.”
Right. Garlic.
But I was desperate. So I sprinkled it on his grain, crossed my fingers, and watched.
He ate the whole thing. And then went straight to his water bucket and drank like he was prepping for a hydration contest.
What Is Redmond Gold?
Okay, here’s the official rundown:
Redmond Gold is a blend of:
- Natural mineral salt (from an ancient sea bed in Utah!)
- Over 60 trace minerals your
horse actually needs - Garlic powder, which horses love and flies hate
It comes in a crumble—no more weird, licked-three-times salt blocks that end up under the water trough. I just scoop it over feed, and Tino thinks it’s a treat. And honestly? It smells… kinda good. Like soup seasoning. (Is that weird? It’s probably weird.)
Why It Works (Even When Nothing Else Did)
I didn’t expect a miracle. But I kind of got one.
Tino started drinking regularly. His coat looked glossier. He had more consistent energy. And—maybe this was my imagination, but—flies didn’t seem to be swarming his face the way they used to. I wasn’t cleaning out gunky eyes every morning or doing that panicked fly spray dance when I led him to the trailer.
It felt like everything was just… easier. And all I did was add a scoop of salty garlic dust to his feed.
Who Should Try It?
If your
- A fussy drinker
- Prone to sweating like a broken faucet
- Working in the heat
- Sensitive to stress
- Basically… a
horse
…then this stuff is worth trying. Especially in summer, when water and minerals and keeping cool can make or break your week at a show (or a ride in the back pasture).
The Garlic Thing
Yes, garlic is safe in moderation. Redmond’s not dumping cloves in here—it’s a smart blend that’s vet-safe for daily use. But if your
In Conclusion (And With Sweaty Gratitude)
I didn’t expect to love a mineral supplement. But I do. Redmond Gold feels like one of those secret weapons you wish someone had told you about sooner.
And if nothing else, watching your
