In response to demand from her clients, Dr. Amy M. Gill, an equine nutrition consultant has developed a line of proprietary nutritional supplements called EQUI-FORCE which are formulated to promote optimum health and performance in equine athletes. Dr. Gill feels “Today’s performance horses are being pushed for fast growth and intense levels of exercise at early ages.
