In horses, the gastric mucosa is often affected by the highly acidic environment of the stomach, particularly during exercise or when the animal is stressed. Acidity may affect the horse's quality of life, its digestive function and, of course, its performance. These critical periods therefore require specific nutritional support.

Audevard Ekygard+ is an ideal solution to help protect the stomach lining against acid attack, with its complete formula having global action on your horse's stomach:

  • Anti Doping Programme
  • Ingredients recognised by veterinary specialists
  • Protection of gastric mucosa
  • Rapid restoration of appetite
  • Reduction in stomach acidity

Formula
The Ekygard+ formula contains the 3 essential ingredients recommended by the European College of Equine Internal Medicine. These are a Pectin Complex (pectin-lecithin), as well as magnesium hydroxide and plant extracts. The pectin-lecithin complex forms a gel that will coat the lining of the stomach, whether in the pylorus, glandular or squamous portions; it thereby creates a barrier to protect the walls of the digestive system against acid. Lithothamnion has a buffer effect, meaning that it reduces the acidity in your horse's stomach. In addition to these 3 essential ingredients, the formula also contains Aloe vera, which has a soothing effect on the stomach lining. Ekygard+ is formulated without any animal by-products or colouring

Our advice
Ekygard+ is a feed supplement that can be used continuously all year round for your horse, thereby preventing too much stomach acidity. It can also be given occasionally when needed. In this case, plan ahead for gastric acidity peaks related to specific events: transportation, competition, medication, etc. Give Ekygard+ for 3 to 4 days before such events and for at least 1 week afterwards.

Your questions.

How do I know if I need to use Ekygard+ for my horse?

You can use Ekygard+ if you suspect your horse has too much gastric acidity. Generally speaking, the symptoms are a horse that does not finish all its ration or stops in the middle of a pellet feed. He has a temperamental appetite. He has abdominal cramps after eating. He has difficulty gaining weight and/or has a poor quality coat. He grinds his teeth. He yawns frequently. He eats soil. He is unsettled and puts his ears back when girthing up.He is not responsive to the leg. You don’t need to wait for symptoms of acidity to develop before you act. You can also use Ekygard+ in a horse with no suspicious symptoms.

When should I use Ekygard+ for my horse?

Ekygard+ can be used continuously all year round to provide constant stomach protection. You can use Ekygard+ during the most stressful periods for your horse: competition season, change of living environment, putting to work, new stable mate, long journey, etc.

Can Ekygard+ be used when my horse is competing?

Ekygard+ belongs to the Anti Doping Programme. Therefore you can use it without any risk of your horse testing positive to anti-doping tests during competitions.
