Overall Wellness
Platinum Performance® GI is a proprietary blend of vitamins, trace minerals, amino acids, antioxidants, omega-3s, probiotics, prebiotics and more—to support your horse in many ways, from digestion to joint health and everything in between.
Digestion
Prebiotics nourish the “good” bacteria in the gut and support the digestion of fiber, while probiotics are important for absorption of nutrients and feed efficiency. Probiotics are also supportive for horses that tend to have loose stool.
