- Mineral Content: Himalayan salt is often praised for its mineral content, which includes trace minerals such as iron, potassium, magnesium, and calcium. These minerals are essential for the health and well-being of horses.
- For thousands of years it has been known that domestic and wild animals need salt just as man does, and not just for flavor. The virtues of salt for animals were extolled by the ancient Greeks. Early explorers in Africa, Asia and North America recorded observations of grazing animals traveling to salt springs or deposits to satisfy ravenous appetites for salt.

- Salt is unique in that animals have a much greater appetite for the sodium and chloride in salt than for other minerals. Because most plants provide insufficient sodium for animal feeding and may lack adequate chloride content, salt supplementation is a critical part of a nutritionally balanced diet for animals.

Because sweat contains about 0.7% salt, the more a horse exercises the more salt is lost via sweat and the more it is needed in the diet.

- Hydration: Salt is an important component of a horse’s diet as it encourages water consumption. Horses that have access to salt are likely to drink more water, helping to prevent dehydration.
- Behavioral Stimulation: Salt licks can provide a source of mental stimulation for horses. Licking is a natural behavior for horses, and having a salt lick can help alleviate boredom, especially in situations where horses are stabled for extended periods.
- Electrolyte Balance: Salt is crucial for maintaining electrolyte balance in the body. Horses that sweat, especially those engaged in physical activities, lose electrolytes and can benefit from access to salt to help restore balance.
- Dental Health: The act of licking a salt block can also contribute to dental health in horses. It encourages saliva production and helps keep the horse’s teeth in better condition.
- Natural Product: Himalayan salt licks are often marketed as a more natural and less processed alternative to some commercial salt blocks, which may contain additives or anti-caking agents.
