Cool Stance copra is a unique horse source of energy because it has low Non Structural Carbohydrate (NSC), and yet has a high digestible energy content. Cool Stance is packed with ‘cool' energy from coconut oil and fiber in coconut meal. Cool Stance copra is suitable for most horses and can be given to support a natural state of gut health and insulin sensitivity, ie normal insulin metabolism (see The post feeding glycaemic and insulin response to copra meal in horses)
Cool Stance copra is made from the white part of the coconut, which has been dried, baked and ground. It is a totally natural product and is chemical and GMO free.

When looking at the protein content, you must consider it as part of a complete diet. Cool Stance has high protein (21% crude protein), however it is designed to be administered in conjunction with lower protein materials like grass hay. Therefore when considered as part of a complete diet, Cool Stance makes a valuable contribution to satisfying a horse’s protein requirements in what may otherwise be a diet which is marginal or even deficient in protein.

Cool Stance® can be administered to most types of horses - working, spelling and breeding. Cool Stance® contains low levels of NSC (<12%) and may also be administered to help support normal insulin sensitivity in horses. Foals may be given Cool Stance® in a creep feeder. It may also help keep condition on older horses. .
Cool Stance® is brown because the white meat of the coconut has been heated during processing to mechanically extract the coconut oil.
Cool Stance® does not contain any husk or shell. It is made from the white meat of the coconut. High fibre (20%) comes from the flesh of the coconut.
Cool Stance® provides readily digestible sources of energy from:
The oils in other meals such as soybean and canola contain mainly Long Chain Fatty Acids (LCFA), which are polyunsaturated. This means they are digested slowly, and are prone to rancidity during storage. Some commercialised oils are made using GMO seeds/grains.
The fatty acids in Cool Stance® are mainly medium chain triglycerides (MCT) and are saturated. This means they are readily digested, absorbed by the horse and are not prone to rancidity during storage. Cool Stance is GMO and chemical free.
Cool Stance® has a unique aroma and taste, which most horses like. A small number of horses can find the product unusual and can be slow to take to it. Start with small amounts and build up slowly. Persist, as the results are worth the effort.
Cool Stance can be administered dry or as a wet mash. Some horse may prefer the texture of Cool Stance® when it is wet.
When Cool Stance is soaked in water, it will swell to at least 3 times the volume. If we give it dry will Cool Stance swell up and hurt my horse? The answer is that because horses eat CoolStance slolwy, oit will hydrate slowly with saliva.
One of the major attributes of Cool Stance is that it will swell in water, which helps to rehydrate horses. When Cool Stance is given dry, the horses eatmore slowly, and by having the water trough away from the trough, they have to walk away to have a drink of water. This helps to regulate consumption.
We can not recommend soaking Cool Stance for long periods of time, especially during hot temperatures or in hot climates.
Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight.
The shelf life on Cool Stance is 24 months from date packed. Packed date can be found on the back, bottom of the bag.
Copra meal is the coproduct of coconut oil extraction either my mechanical extraction or solvent extration (using hexane). Mechanically expelled copra meal contains approx 10-12% coconut oil, whereas solvent extrated contains only 2% coconut oil. Some copra is direct dried abov a fire and has a burent aroma. Some is indiret dried by the sun, or on a heating tray. Cool Stance is produced only from indirect dried, mechanically expelled copra.
