Vitamix-for-Horses
Vitamix
Improve Digestion, Nutrient Absorption & Overall Metabolic Performance.
Our strongest probiotic/prebiotic supplement designed to support gut health, also fortified with a concentrated blend of Vitamins, Chelated Minerals, Enzymes and Electrolytes essential for the digestive & immune systems to function effectively during times of metabolic stress. Provides Direct Fed Microbials.
Horses on Vitamix will benefit in a number of ways, including a shiny hair coat, better body condition on hardkeepers, reduced digestive upset or diarrhea (i.e. less potential for Colic), and strong, solid hooves, to name a few.
May be fed daily to support overall gut and immune health or in response to runny nose, cough, respiratory infection, pneumonia, lymes disease, cuts/scrapes/lacerations and so on.
Also recommended for recovery from heavy antibiotic treatment to re-establish intestinal flora.
Ulcers
Performance horses, stressed horses & easy keepers tend to be more prone to developing ulcers. We recommend a strong probiotic/prebiotic blend to improve the digestion of starch & destroy putrefactive bacteria in the digestive tract. We've also combed vitamins A, C & E with B-complex vitamins to help buffer stress cofactors and included Zinc & Calcium Pantothenate to aid in tissue/wound healing. What good is buffering the acid, if you aren't providing the nutrients for the body to repair the sore?
Also: Consider adding rice bran (or other fat source) to slow gastric emptying & avoid feeding large amounts of grain in one feeding. A small amount of soaked alfalfa pellets/cubes offered several times daily can help support acid buffering also, which is proven to benefit the lining of the stomach.
