About CME
The name CME is the simple abbreviation of my initials, my name is CHRISTIAN MÜLLER-EHRENBERG (Dr med. vet.), founder of CME Horses GmbH. For over a decade, the special feeds I have developed for horses have been available in Germany - stabilised rice husk bran as concentrated feed and mushroom mixtures as supplementary feed.
Initially ridiculed to some extent, the products have long since been recognised, widely used and proven in practice. They are recommended and prescribed by vets and veterinary practitioners far beyond Germany's borders.
While I was studying veterinary medicine, I began to take an in-depth look at the subject of optimising horse nutrition to improve performance and prevent or support all kinds of health problems. As a high-level show jumper, as an employee of the Holsteiner Association in the USA, as a trainer of first-class horses, trainer, course director and product manager of well-known feed manufacturers, I was naturally also very interested in these topics and, in addition to my medical practice, I also gained extremely valuable experience in these areas.
The result of my comprehensive expertise is a selected range of high-quality products that are tailored to modern, balanced and health-promoting horse nutrition and care - in line with my philosophy: Better4Horses.
Originally, the horse is still a steppe animal. Domestication has not influenced the genetically programmed metabolic and digestive processes, which means that the horse is still naturally a raw fibre eater and not a starch, carbohydrate and sugar eater. Nowadays there are more and more diseases of affluence, including in horses, which are caused by incorrect or excessive feeding. At the same time, however, a sufficient supply of natural vital nutrients is often no longer ensured through conventional feed.
This is precisely where my CME products come in, as they are precisely tailored to the needs of the horse's digestive system:
The RiceUp feed, based on rice husk bran exclusively from Italy, is low in starch, grain-, molasses- and gluten-free, high in energy, hypoallergenic, rich in essential amino acids, muscle-building, highly digestible and gentle on the stomach.
Mushrooms and especially the long-lasting mycelium of mushrooms have been used successfully for thousands of years in a wide variety of areas due to the very special health-promoting biovital substances they contain, such as beta-glucans. They are also an excellent source of essential fatty acids, vitamins, minerals and trace elements. The use of not only the fruiting bodies but also the mushroom mycelium, the absence of fillers and the highest quality of all raw materials make the CME mushroom mixtures unique.
The CME RiceUp from the beginning and, since 2020, the CME mushroom blends have also been produced under optimal conditions in southern Germany. As a result, I also moved the headquarters of CME Horses GmbH from Münster NRW to southern Germany in 2024.
Good and individual advice is very important. Please ask your vet / veterinary practitioner or call CME - Better4Horses at any time if you have any questions about the health of your horse.
