Reasons to Supplement for Digestive Health

Promote a Natural Diet:

Horses are natural grazers, they were never meant to be fed a high amount of grains or concentrates in single feedings, like many modern day equine diets. Adding probiotics, prebiotics and glutamine can promote overall wellness and keep the digestive system running smoothly.

Support Feed Efficiency:

When a horse’s digestive system is functioning properly, the body is able to absorb and utilize nutrients easier leading to less wasted feed and more essential nutrients being put to good use in the body.

Provide Preventative Care:

An estimated 70-80% of the entire immune system resides in the gut. Nourishing beneficial bacteria can help support a healthy gut barrier and microflora balance adding an extra layer of protection for horses.

Probiotics:

Live microorganisms that support the growth and activity of “good microbes” in the gut, which is associated with nutrient digestibility, optimal immune and inflammatory support, and general GI health.

Prebiotics:

Support the health of the naturally existing microbes in the hindgut by feeding the innate, good bacteria that is then able to grow and multiply, resulting in healthy forage digestion.
