About Our Company

SweetPro Feeds started production in 1991 and patented a new concept in non-molasses, free choice block supplementation which featuring Condensed Distiller Solubles.

In 2002, SweetPro developed the multi-prebiotic ProBiotein® process. SweetPro took a leading position in supporting animal health and performance by doing it naturally. SweetPro’s EquiPride and EquiLix maximize nutrient utilization to support better immune response and performance.

SweetPro makes supplements that support your horses, cattle and other animals ability to stay healthier. EquiPride and EquiLix add key ingredients to your livestock's normal feed, so their digestive systems can perform the way that nature intended.

What Are PreBiotics?

While most of the equine world recognizes the need for "probiotics" (the friendly microflora bacteria that aid horses in proper digestion), not as many owners are aware that "prebiotics" are needed to feed the microbiome and support the health of these good bacteria populations within the gut. Prebiotics are fibers that are not directly digested by the horse, they can only be digested by probiotics!

The oligosaccharide fibers that are used in Equi Pride® and EquiLix® are Axos (Arabino-Xylo), XOS (Xylo), MOS (Mannan), FOS (fructo) and Beta-glucan. These 5 prebiotics are combined into a blend. While they are good separately, together they are even better! The yeast in EquiPride and EquiLix is also a “postbiotic”.

How Are The Pre-Biotics At EquiPride™ Better Than The Competition?

Many products only contain 1 type of prebiotic, but since selective digestion occurs, EquiPride™ and EquiLixtarget 5 main types of prebiotics. This becomes a KEY Advantage for users of EquiPride™ and EquiLix™because when probiotics are supported, feed is more thoroughly digested, nutrients are absorbed and the pH stays balanced within your horse..

How the free-choice and meal formats work

EquiLix® is a no-molasses, no-starch lick block made with distiller's dried grains with solubles, condensed distiller solubles and flax meal, where horses self-regulate at roughly one pound per head per day. EquiPride® meal feeds at 1 oz per 100 lbs of body weight, with most adult horses taking 2 scoops daily and physically stressed performance horses up to 3 scoops, using the included 5 oz scoop. The prebiotic fibers feed beneficial bacteria in the hind gut to help maintain digestive-tract health and minimize the digestive disruptions tied to diet changes and stress.

Which horses benefit from these supplements?

SweetPro builds EquiPride® and EquiLix® to support digestive-tract health, temperament, hair coat, endurance, weight management, immunity, joint health and hoof care across every class of horse. The lineup spans Ranch, Western Performance, English Performance and Pleasure use, so the same nutrition reaches horses working cattle, riding trails, competing, breeding, or being kept comfortable at the end of their career. Standard and Garlic varieties are offered to suit fly-season and individual-horse preferences.

Package sizes, prices and how to buy
EquiPride® comes in a 25 lb pail at $74.75 (about a 40-day supply at 2 scoops daily) and a 50 lb bag at $76.75 (about an 80-day supply), each including a 5 oz scoop.

The Solution Section (FAQ)
Who is SweetPro and what makes their approach different?

SweetPro Feeds started production in 1991 and patented a new concept in non-molasses, free-choice block supplementation featuring Condensed Distiller Solubles. In 2002, SweetPro developed the multi-prebiotic ProBiotein® process — supporting animal health and performance naturally rather than through molasses-driven palatability.

What are prebiotics and why does the horse need them?

Per SweetPro: probiotics are the friendly microflora bacteria that aid digestion. Prebiotics are the fibers that feed those probiotics — fibers that the horse cannot digest directly, but which the gut bacteria can. EquiPride® and EquiLix® combine five prebiotic types: AXOS (Arabino-Xylo), XOS (Xylo), MOS (Mannan), FOS (fructo), and Beta-glucan. Most products contain only one — SweetPro's blend approach is the key advantage.

What's the difference between EquiPride and EquiLix?

EquiPride™ Top Dress is a loose top-dress supplement added to your horse's regular feed, available in 5-gallon pails and 50-lb bags. EquiLix™ is a free-choice lick block — non-molasses, distillers-grain-based, all-in-one vitamin and mineral supplement available in 25, 50, 125, and 250 lb sizes. Both are designed to maximize nutrient uptake from your horse's existing feed and minimize the need for multiple supplements.

What benefits do EquiPride and EquiLix support?

Per SweetPro, the supplements support: improved digestion, up to 25% less forage needed depending on quality and type, helping combat digestive colicing, shiny and healthy hair coat, strong solid hooves, better joint lubricity, strength and endurance without getting hot or high, improved temperament via the gut-brain axis, support for hard keepers, and bright clear eyes.

What about performance horses or horses that travel?

EquiPride Gold™ is a prebiotic and probiotic paste designed for the stress of work, competition, and travel. Per SweetPro, it can be used before and after a run or competition for an extra energy boost when energy demands are highest, and is great for shipping or traveling — supporting stress alleviation and encouraging the horse to eat normal rations. There is also a 25 lb pink EquiLix® Performance with Garlic hanging tub designed for stall convenience and travel, intended to encourage intake for horses with above-normal activity levels or competition demand.

Are SweetPro products audited?

Yes — Med-Vet Pharmaceuticals and SweetPro both highlight third-party verification. SweetPro states it is a Member of the National Animal Supplement Council (NASC), meaning formulas are independently tested and verified for ingredient quantity and quality. Most quality horse catalogs (ValleyVet, SmartPak Equine, Stateline Tack, United Vet Equine and others) carry MVP and SweetPro products.

What does Ann Pruitt say about EquiPride?

Per Ann Pruitt, Director of InfoHorse: "I have been amazed at the quality and the results that are consistently showing when my horses are on EquiPride™! I recommend it to all my friends and have just ordered the 'human version' in the Health Bar form and can't wait to get it! A healthy digestive system is paramount to the health and well being of your horse — and even yourself."

What is the difference between EquiPride and EquiLix?
Both deliver the same ProBiotein-powered nutrition, but in different formats. EquiPride is a loose meal you top-dress or mix into your horse's current feed, ideal when you want to control exactly how much each horse gets. EquiLix is a free-choice lick block for pasture or dry-lot horses that self-regulate their own intake, typically around one pound per head per day.
What is ProBiotein and why does it matter?
ProBiotein is SweetPro's proprietary digestive-aid blend found in every EquiPride and EquiLix product. It combines postbiotic yeast culture, prebiotic fibers, fermentation metabolites, protein isolates and Omega-3 fatty acids, plus an enzyme array. These ingredients feed the beneficial bacteria in the horse's hind gut to support digestive-tract health and better nutrient uptake.
Who makes EquiPride and EquiLix?
They are made by SweetPro Premium Supplements, a family-owned company manufacturing supplements for cattle, equine, goats and sheep since 1991. SweetPro pioneered a non-molasses, free-choice block concept built around Condensed Distiller Solubles. The company says its success depends on the success of its customers.
What sizes and prices does EquiPride come in?
EquiPride is offered in a 25 lb pail at $74.75 and a 50 lb bag at $76.75. The 25 lb pail is roughly a 40-day supply and the 50 lb bag roughly an 80-day supply when fed at 2 scoops daily. Each package includes a 5 oz scoop.
What sizes and prices does EquiLix come in?
EquiLix free-choice lick blocks come in 50 lb (for 1-2 horses), 125 lb (for 3-9 horses) and 250 lb (for 10 or more horses) sizes. Pricing ranges from $104.75 to $107.75. There are also EquiLix PI (Performance Intake) to encourage more consumption and EquiLix MaXX to moderate overconsumption.
How much EquiPride should I feed my horse?
The standard rate is 1 oz per 100 lbs of body weight. Most adult horses do well on 2 scoops daily, easy keepers and finicky horses on 1 scoop, and performance or working horses up to 3 scoops daily when physically stressed. Use the included 5 oz scoop and top-dress or mix it with your current feed.
Does EquiPride or EquiLix contain molasses or starch?
No. Both are formulated with no molasses and no starch, which sets them apart from many sweetened supplements and blocks. EquiLix instead uses distiller's dried grains with solubles, condensed distiller solubles and flax meal for palatability and nutrition. This makes them well suited to horses sensitive to sugar and starch.
What ingredients are in EquiLix?
EquiLix combines distiller dried grains with solubles, condensed distiller solubles and flax meal with the ProBiotein blend. It also delivers a complete vitamin and mineral program including biotin, vitamin E and organic complexed zinc, copper and manganese. The organic minerals are bound to protein for high bioavailability.
How does ProBiotein support the hind gut?
The prebiotic fibers in ProBiotein, also known as oligosaccharides, feed the beneficial probiotic bacteria living in the horse's digestive tract. This helps maintain good digestive-tract health and minimizes the digestive disruptions associated with diet changes and stress. The postbiotic yeast culture and enzymes further assist fiber, protein and mineral utilization.
Can these supplements replace my other horse supplements?
EquiPride and EquiLix are designed to minimize the need for a wide variety of separate supplements by covering many bases in one product. They support digestion, hair coat, hoof care, joints, immunity, temperament, endurance and weight management together. Many owners use them as their core all-in-one supplement.
Are there garlic versions available?
Yes. EquiPride is available in both a Standard variety and a Garlic variety, and a garlic option is offered with EquiLix as well. Garlic is a popular choice during fly season and for horses that prefer the flavor. Both varieties carry the same core ProBiotein nutrition.
What kinds of horses are EquiPride and EquiLix for?
They are formulated for all classes of horses across Ranch, Western Performance, English Performance and Pleasure use. That includes horses working cattle, riding trails, competing, breeding, or being kept comfortable into their senior years. The same balanced nutrition reaches every type of horse.
How does EquiLix help with hoof and coat quality?
The yeast in ProBiotein is cultured on wheat, oats, barley malt and flax, making it rich in biotin, a nutrient well known for supporting hoof and coat health. EquiLix also supplies vitamin E and organic complexed zinc, copper and manganese that contribute to skin, coat and hoof integrity. Flax adds Omega-3 fatty acids that further support a healthy hair coat.
How does the free-choice block prevent overconsumption?
EquiLix is a hard, pressed lick block, so horses lick rather than chew, naturally pacing intake to roughly a pound per head per day. For herds that tend to overconsume, SweetPro offers EquiLix MaXX, which is formulated to moderate consumption. For horses that need to eat more, EquiLix PI (Performance Intake) encourages higher intake.
What are the Omega-3 fatty acids in these products for?
The flax in ProBiotein provides dense energy that is high in Omega-3 fatty acid content. Flax also contains lignans, which help improve immune function. Together these support coat condition, energy and overall immune health alongside the digestive benefits.
Where can I buy EquiPride and EquiLix?
Both products are sold through SweetPro dealers and feed retailers. You can reach SweetPro customer service at 888.229.0475, or contact regional locations in Walhalla, ND at 701.549.3450 and Horton, KS at 785.486.2626. The company website at sweetpro.com lists product details and dealer information.
How long does a package of EquiPride last?
At the typical feeding rate of 2 scoops daily, a 25 lb pail lasts about 40 days and a 50 lb bag about 80 days for one horse. Actual duration varies with your horse's body weight and whether you feed 1, 2 or 3 scoops per day. Easy keepers on a single scoop will make a package last considerably longer.
