It was recommended to us for a horse we just purchased who has had ulcers in the past to help control acid levels

Within 48hours of starting using Gastric Comfort my grumpy, and obviously uncomfortable, horse was much improved in both temper and behaviour. Early days, but I’m hopeful the progress continues.

This is one of the only supplements I have bought that really makes a difference. The horse is so much more comfortable using gastric comfort. He now has regular droppings and seems very much more settled

Not one for supplements, but ive seen a huge improvement in my mare since starting to use this product. Shes put a small amount of weight on and is much less sensitive to girth and mount

Nutrition Information

Gastric Comfort™ works within the horse’s stomach, offering targeted help for horses with restricted turnout, those that are sensitive around the stomach and grumpy being saddled, and horses on high starch diets. This supplement contains a unique blend of ingredients to help maintain a healthy digestive system and nutritionally soothe the stomach lining. Lecithin and Pectin support the delicate mucosal lining of the stomach, and once ingested, the Magnesium hydroxide forms a soothing gel, helping to coat and line the stomach. Calcium compounds and Liquorice root are added for their alkaline properties helping to maintain normal acid production.

Composition

Magnesium hydroxide (35%), Calcium carbonate, Dicalcium phosphate, Wheatfeed middlings, Liquorice root powder, Apple pectin, Hydrolysed wheat glutamine peptides.

Feeding Guide

 

Weight of Horse/Pony Amount per feed
Up to 400kg ½ scoop
Over 400kg 1 scoop

 

1 level (50ml) scoop of Gastric Comfort™weighs approximately 32g

 

Feed with each meal up to a maximum of three times per day to help maintain a healthy gastric environment. 

Gastric Comfort™should be added immediately prior to feeding, keeping the supplement as dry as possible, otherwise effectiveness may be lost.

Avoid feeding large concentrate meals (pellets, mixes and grains). Instead feed little and often throughout the day, especially concentrate feeds. Always feed at least 1.5% of your horse's body weight per day as fibrous forage (for a 500kg horse feed at least 7.5kg of fibre per day). Horses showing signs of excess acid should have continuous access to forage.

Feed supplements should be fed according to body weight. Introduce to the horse's diet gradually, splitting between feeds (when applicable).

Gastric Comfort™is a complementary feeding stuff for equine animals. Feedmark uses nothing in the formulation of this product that contravenes competition rules.
