Why feed a gut balancer? From the day we brought horses into work and stabled them we have subjected them to stresses that they associate with a threat and we have triggered their natural response to threat - that is to empty themselves and run away!... The flight response. When this occurs, the delicate balance of gut microflora is disrupted and depleted. This deficiency will affect the performance and condition of any equine, from foal to competition horse and older horses too. Protexin Equine Premium is a range of specific supplements, each with a high quality probiotic to help restore the balance of the microflora and therefore to promote effective health, recovery and performance. When can Quick Fix be used?

• When travelling a horse, particularly over long distances or in situations where the horse gets over-excited, nervous or worries

• Settling before competition

• Following worming or treatment with antibiotics - where the beneficial microorganisms in the hindgut can be adversely affected.

It can also be used to help new-born foals to establish the population of microflora necessary for effective digestion in the gut - something that is not present at birth. It may also help to prevent foal 'scours.' What does Quick Fix contain? Quick Fix is peppermint flavoured to encourage acceptance and is presented in a spin-ring/dial-a-dose syringe for accurate administration. As well as the Protexin probiotic, it also includes Preplex prebiotic to help the probiotic microorganisms grow more effectively.
