Feedmark Gastric Comfort (Equine)
Soothing support for a healthy gastric environment.
This powerful blend of ingredients helps to settle the stomach and, once ingested, forms a viscous gel to coat and support the delicate mucosal lining of the gut. Gastric Comfort™ has alkaline properties to balance the stomach and help maintain normal acid production. This soothing supplement is ideal for horses who are sensitive when girthing or grooming, on high concentrate, low forage diets, and those who are frequently stabled.
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.
