Red Hot Equine Aminos

10/31/2026

I typed this up sitting in my mule before dinner lol so I don’t want it to go to waste. 😆

Repair… let’s break this down a little. 💪🏻

My horses get either free-choice alfalfa or 2–3 flakes per feeding, along with ½ to 1 scoop of Purina Ultium Gastric, depending on the horse. Based on that feeding program, they’re getting roughly 48–90+ grams of lysine daily.

I feed for PERFORMANCE. So, what does Red Hot Repair actually do?

Repair is designed to supplement an already solid feeding program, not replace it.

Amino Acids: Horses need a balanced supply of essential amino acids to efficiently build and repair muscle, maintain topline, and recover from work. While forage and feed provide amino acids, those proteins must first be broken down during digestion. By supplementing with free-form amino acids, we're providing readily available building blocks that require less digestion before absorption.

The goal is twofold:

Help fill potential amino acid gaps in the diet.

Support the increased nutritional demands of a performance horse.

Stomach Support: Repair also includes ingredients for stomach support, including magnesium. It's not intended to be a full probiotic or digestive formula—that's what our Triumph line is designed for.

Electrolytes: Repair contains electrolytes, but not an excessive amount. Just a practical level of support for a working horse. Again, the foundation should always be good-quality feed, forage, and an appropriately balanced diet.

And let's talk about sugar. Sugar isn't automatically the enemy. Horses need energy, especially performance horses. They obtain energy from several sources, including carbohydrates, fats, and fiber fermentation.

During intense exercise, muscle glycogen is an important fuel source. If energy intake is inadequate, the body can also break down protein to help meet its needs. That's why properly fueling a performance horse matters!

My entire philosophy behind RHEA is simple:

Feed good-quality forage. Feed a good-quality concentrate. Then supplement strategically to fill nutritional gaps and support the demands you're placing on your horse.

I’m not trying to replace good nutrition. I’m trying to help your horses get the most out of it.

It’s actually pretty cool to see my little company being compared to some of the BIG names in the supplement industry.

I started Red Hot Equine Aminos because the more I educated myself, the more questions I had. Why were so many supplements not listing their ingredients? Where were the guaranteed analyses? What about manufacturing standards and quality control?

And most importantly, were the ingredients we were feeding our horses actually bioavailable and being utilized by their bodies?

I wanted something different.

Every ingredient in RHEA has a PURPOSE. We prioritize locally sourced, quality ingredients, transparency, and formulations that actually make sense.

RHEA was never meant to replace good nutrition. It was created to complement the quality feed and forage you already spend your hard-earned money on.

I didn't start this company to compete with the big guys. I started it because I wanted better answers, better transparency, and products I felt confident feeding my own horses. I wanted to know what and why to every ingredient. Not use ingredients that are outlawed in other countries. I have tasted every single product we make… myself lol.

And seeing how far this little company has come? Pretty dang cool. ❤️

So if you have questions… reach out. If you want to compare us using AI… well that’s no problem either… just make sure the conversions are right and do a little of your own research on how horses break it down, how everything listed doesn’t always mean it’s an ingredient, and really ask yourself those questions I did.

The way my horses look and feel… I believe speaks for themselves. 🫶🏻

🍬🐴 SUGAR ISN'T THE ENEMY!

There's a misconception that sugar is automatically bad for horses, especially when it's included in a supplement. But here's something important to understand: Glucose is one of the fuels your horse's muscles use to perform!

🌱 Horses naturally consume sugar every day. Grass contains naturally occurring sugars, and horses also obtain glucose by digesting starch and through normal metabolic processes.

⚡ Sugar → Glucose → Glycogen → Energy!

When horses absorb glucose, some can be used immediately for energy, while some is stored in the muscles and liver as glycogen.

During intense exercise, especially short, explosive efforts like barrel racing, muscle glycogen is an important fuel source.

💪 What about burning muscle?

When energy intake is inadequate, the body can break down protein, including muscle protein, to help meet its energy needs. Providing sufficient calories and carbohydrates helps reduce the need to use protein for energy.

But that doesn't mean horses need added sugar in every supplement to prevent muscle loss. Horses can also produce glucose from other nutrients, and adequate total calories, protein, and recovery nutrition are essential.

🔥 So why include sugar in a supplement?

✔️ Provides a readily available carbohydrate source.

✔️ Can improve palatability and encourage consumption.

✔️ Contributes energy that can support glycogen replenishment after exercise.

✔️ Can be useful in appropriate amounts for healthy, hardworking performance horses.

The key is the AMOUNT, the PURPOSE, and the HORSE.

A small amount of sugar in a properly formulated supplement isn't the same as feeding a high-sugar diet.

Horses with insulin dysregulation, EMS, or certain metabolic conditions may need stricter sugar and starch management.

Sugar isn't automatically bad. It's a nutrient that the body knows how to use. Understanding nutrition is more important than fearing an ingredient!
