Protexin Equine Premium Gut Sponge 1.5kg + Gut Balancer 700g (Equine)
Gut Sponge is a palatable, peppermint flavoured, nutritional supplement formulated to support hind gut health and encourage the formation of normal droppings.
Gut Balancer supports optimal nutrition by providing key nutrients, and by improving digestive function and efficiency.
Gut Sponge contains psyllium husks, a prebiotic and valuable energy source for the horse due to its fermentation by the microbiota. This provides safe calories, promotes the growth of friendly bacteria and nourishes the gut lining cells.
The high fibre psyllium husks absorb water in the gut, coating and protecting the gut lining and helping the production of normal droppings. This is enhanced by the high level of Bentonite – a natural binding agent – and source of essential minerals.
Linseed is a nutritious source of omega 3 and 6 fatty acids, which supports gut health and general well-being.
