As horse owners most of us are becoming increasingly aware of the role that PREBIOTICS and PROBIOTICS play in the gut health of our horses. Broad-spectrum antibiotics and some anti-parasitic chemicals periodically introduced into the system devastate the beneficial microbial population as well as target pathogens. Chlorine in the water, added by authorities to act as a purifying, antibacterial agent, will also have a detrimental effect on the horse's beneficial gut flora. Stress is also a major factor in the horse's life, which will disrupt the gut flora. Stress can be generated by any drastic change in the physical or emotional environment, birth, weaning, traveling or even fear.
🐴 Horses with their huge microbiome will benefit from feeding pre and probiotics. Prebiotic mannans (MOS) bind pathogenic bacteria, limiting the attachment of harmful pathogenic bacteria to the intestinal wall. When gut microbes ferment prebiotics they produce volatile fatty acids (VFAs) including butyric acid and propionic acid which can be ingested by means of receptors in the intestinal wall and then be absorbed and used by the horse. Probiotics improve the fermentation process in the hind gut and they can be beneficial in stabilizing digestive disturbances. Research has shown evidence that probiotics lead to calmer, more stable horse behaviour, especially during times of stress. Horses seem better able to cope with stimuli that previously caused problems. Probiotics contribute to less acidic, less watery manure and is highly effective for horses with scours, it also assists during transport which means a happier, comfortable horse on arrival.
GT Performer with it's carefully selected additives including our powerful probiotics & prebiotics, removes lactic acid from the hind gut (a 70% reduction within 8 hours of ingestion from the probiotic alone)
Does the gut health supplement you are using supply your horse with functional ingredients such as both PREBIOTICS AND PROBIOTICS? Prebiotics PLUS Probiotics when combined create a functional SYNBIOTIC ingredient.
Probiotics are beneficial super bacteria that suppress the growth of bacteria in the intestinal tract therefore promoting a well balanced gut environment.
Prebiotics are a super food for the probiotics, these natural fibre boosters feed the growth of probiotics in the intestine.
A synergistic combination of prebiotics and probiotics equates to significantly increased levels of probiotic cells in the intestine.
