w-3 Oil contains both plant and marine sources of natural fatty acids, as well as the essential fatty acid DHA, which is not found in plant sources like flax oil or camelina oil.
Supplementing fat in your horse’s diet may be beneficial at all life stages. However, w-3 Oil is more than just an equine fat supplement. It is further fortified with high levels of Vitamin E.
Horses do not obtain the long chain fatty acid DHA from their diet. They convert the essential fatty acid ALA into DHA, but the conversion is not efficient and may lead to sub-optimal levels.
Supplementing can avoid this and support cardiovascular health, joint health, weight maintenance, skin and coat quality and more.

Research shows that horses supplemented with omega-3s like EPA and DHA have improved coat and skin quality, joint health, cardiovascular function, and reduced inflammation.
Mad Barn’s W-3 Oil is an extra-fortified oil rich in the omega-3 DHA, an essential fatty acid not naturally found in forage.

Mad Barn’s W-3 is made using microalgae-synthesized DHA, which is the most effective form of omega-3 for your horse.
W-3 Oil is calorie-dense, making it the perfect cool energy supplement. Fat is metabolized slower in the body compared to starch and carbohydrates.

This slow release of energy makes W-3 Oil an excellent source of cool energy that does not cause spikes in blood glucose and insulin levels. This makes it an ideal way to add calories without negatively impacting the health or reactivity of your horse.

W-3 Oil is also formulated with high levels of natural vitamin E, the most readily absorbed and utilized form of this vitamin.
Vitamin E works as an antioxidant to combat oxidative stress that emerges from strenuous exercise, systemic inflammation from metabolic diseases, neurological diseases, or muscular disorders.
