I’ve been hearing more folks using this product line. Have my own opinions on it and am curious to see what the cloth co census is. Anyone?
As with any line, some products are wonderful, not all are suitable for every horse. I’ve used many of them, some I’ve never had a reason to try. I’ve used a lot for the dogs and cats and horses and us.
IMHO their NTM (natural trace mineral, mostly salt, loose) product is one of the best out there. I am never without Wound Balm or Wound Salve or Miracle Clay. I’ve used the grain product, but not in a long time, and probably wouldn’t again due to grains in it. I used the v/m for a long time as well, but now I try to use one that doesn’t have added iron. I still have Izmine and the 2:1 and 1:1 minerals out free choice. I love the DynaPro.
What proof of efficacy does the line offer? While a double blind study is the “gold standard” (and difficult and expensive to do) I’d look for something more than just a series of glowing anecdotes.

What “proof” do any product lines like this have? 
Agreed JB. When a vet friend of mine contacted the company asking for ingredient listings/ guaranteed analysis, proof of research of success, etc. the reply came that she was lucky to have such ‘wonderful’ clients who use their line. No other information was forthcoming.
It’s a bit disturbing to me that some horses seem to gravitate toward certain free choice supplements yet ignore others. It makes me wonder about nutritional balance when they hoover up one type yet ignore others.
What prompted your vet friend to contact them for proof? Does she contact Uckele and Horsetech and whomever makes Grand Vite, and Smart Pack or any other number of companies asking for their proof? All of those have lots of testimonials from wonderful clients. None of them have any formal, unbiased, peer-reviewed studies on the products, though you can certainly find all sorts of formal information on what those ingredients do and what they (might) mean for a horse.
Why are you disturbed by a gravitation towards a specific free choice supplement? In my case, the contrast was clear - horses eating a lot of clover at a point in time were getting a lot of calcium and were seeking more phosphorous in their diet by consuming their 1:1 supplement, which I actually just posted about earlier today in response to Ghazzu’s comment that there is some proof that horses seek out phosphorous as one of the few minerals they will seek out. Once my clover is gone (or more dormant/eaten down by the time it’s good and hot), they are done with the 1:1 - done for the year, until the next year’s round of clover - and then occasionally get into their 2:1.
We can never, ever balance a horse’s diet on a daily basis, not unless they are in a very structured setting where every ounce of what they eat is analyzed and balanced every single day. So, yeah, not happening LOL
We can balance in general - get this batch of hay analyzed as a general batch and add a personalized supplement that will balance out the generality of that hay, but on a given day or week you might be feeding bales that are higher or lower than what the average came out to, so each of those days are unbalanced.
Or the horse is out eating pasture, and now it’s 3 weeks since you took sample to have analyzed, and the clover is in full force, or some other edible weed, and now the horses are eating something that is not taken into account in the recent forage analysis. Then it’s late Summer and the makeup of the forage has changed again - lots more Bermuda growing and lots less fescue, for example
For some things, it doesn’t have to take many days for a horse to want something different - mine start in on the 1:1 within days, literally, of the clover making a fairly sudden appearance, and are off it literally within a few days as well after it’s “gone”.
Now, if there’s a particular free choice product that a horse is constantly going after, and a lot, then that’s worth taking note of and investigating. But he can go after a given mineral on a regular basis, in small amounts, and be fine - easier for him to self-regulate than you to have to guess 
JB… can’t go into details but there’s more of interest to me than just supplement sales. Thanks.
IIRC, this company is one that doesn’t list its ingredients, which scares me. Maybe they do now. I haven’t looked at it for a long time, reason in my first sentence.
Dynamite has listed ingredients for a long time.
