Product Description

Horses are designed to trickle feed – grazing for up to 16 hours a day. This means that they need to constantly secrete acid to help digest this almost continual source of food entering their stomach. A grazing horse will also produce up to 9 gallons of saliva a day which as well as lubricating the food, also acts to help maintain a healthy gastric pH.

The horse has a small stomach, and food does not stay in there for very long, so even short periods during the day without access to forage should be minimised.

Providing a small amount of forage, such as chaff, prior to exercise will also support gastric health and comfort.

There are a number of additional management tips which may also help support gastric health:

• Plan yard and field regimes to avoid stressors such as bullying or excessive activity near the stable.
• Avoid high starch feeds and instead use a forage-based regime with digestible fibre sources and oil to provide additional energy.
• Try to provide periods of turnout or hand grazing if possible to enable the horse to benefit from antioxidants in fresh green forage.

Plan training and competition schedules carefully, especially where long-distance travel may result in restricted forage intake.

Equine America ULS-gard Pellets have been formulated using carefully selected ingredients to help maintain gastric health and comfort including:

Slow-release calcium and magnesium from marine algae, to help support a healthy gut pH.

Lecithin - a special type of fat which to support healthy stomach lining cells.

Pectins, Marshmallow root and Liquorice - to help produce mucilage which acts as a physical barrier for the unprotected upper portion of the stomach.

Aloe Vera and Glycine - to help support a healthy gastric mucosa (lining of the stomach).

High nucleotide yeast - to provide beta-glucans which help to increase the viscosity of stomach contents, and provide nutritional support for a healthy gastric mucosa.

Pre and Probiotics to support a healthy gut microbiome.

Alfalfa and soya hulls to provide a fibrous "mat" and to help maintain a healthy gastric pH.

Additional Management factors to help support digestive health and comfort.

• Turnout to grass where practical and possible, ideally with a placid companion, even if only for short periods.
• Ensure ad-lib forage where practical. For good-doers, where calories are restricted, offer very frequent, but controlled amounts of forage, with the largest allocation overnight. Select clean, but low-calorie forage to enable larger amounts to be offered.
• Offer forage in different locations in the stable to encourage natural foraging behaviour.
• Try to reduce social stressors such as bullying stablemates, or proximity to the feed store.
• Feed a good double handful (or 1 round scoop) of alfalfa chaff before exercise or competition warm-up to provide a fibrous "mat" in the stomach - even if forage is available in the stable or lorry.
• Consider replacing some starch-based calories with Equine America Supreme Omega Oil in the diet.

Product Description

Magnesium is an essential mineral, playing important roles in many areas of metabolism. One of its major roles is as a co-factor in the enzymes involved in nerve and neuro-muscular transmission – helping to regulate nerve to nerve and nerve to muscle transmission and communication.

A lack of magnesium can result in nerve and neuro-muscular excitability, resulting in a tense, nervous horse.

Stressful situations such as strenuous activity and competition, travelling, prolonged stabling and lack of grazing, or new environments may further increase magnesium requirements as stress levels rise.

Magnitude provides supplemental magnesium, together with controlled amounts of calcium (another key mineral in nerve and muscle metabolism), to help promote healthy nerve function and reduce tension, enabling the horse to focus and concentrate.

What are the benefits of Magnitude?

Magnitude provides magnesium from Magnesium Oxide, which is produced from calcined magnesite, extracted from natural deposits in the earth. The Magnesium Oxide used in Magnitude typically contains 52.7% elemental magnesium.

• Natural source of magnesium to supplement low or marginal levels in forage.
• A very small daily serving of 5g provides 2.6g elemental magnesium, easily mixed in feed for fussy feeders
• Safe use with most typical fortified performance and leisure feeds and forage.

Colour Change

*Slight colour change - but the same great product, now with even more quality assurance!

We are pleased to confirm that there is no difference in the magnesium levels, or the chemical source of the magnesium used (magnesium oxide - MgO), only in the physical form of MgO we are now using.

This change in physical form (to the slightly more granular form, with a pale beige colour) has arisen because we are delighted to report that we are now manufacturing Equine America (UK) products in the UK, using certified facilities with the highest standards of safety and production. Although Equine America (UK) products have always been free from prohibited substances, our new UFAS and BETA NOPS certifications will provide further reassurance in the light of recent high profile prohibited substances cases, giving our customers peace of mind regarding FEI, BEF and BHA prohibited substances, enabling full traceability.

In order to comply with the rules and regulations regarding these certifications, we are only able to use certain suppliers, who are also certified, and have had to make a change to our supply of magnesium oxide, so we are now using the lower dust, slightly granular form, which is pale beige.

If you have any queries, please no hesitate to contact the Office.

Ingredients Per 10ml Serving

Product Description

Horses are naturally fright and flight animals and can be prone to excitability and nervousness in unfamiliar surroundings (such as competition or new training venue) which can lead to spookiness and cause them to lose concentration and focus with undesirable behaviour.

Super So Kalm Paste provides targeted nutrition with 5 key ingredients to support the horse in managing these stress responses and supporting calm behaviour.

Super So Kalm Paste should be fed 1.5-2 hours before exercise or event for best results.

Magnesium is a vital micromineral and plays an important role in nerve activity and muscle contraction, as well as its other functions around the body. A lack of magnesium in the diet can result in neuro-muscular excitability and increase in nervous behaviour.

Calcium works closely with Magnesium and also is key to maintaining correct muscle and nerve function.

Vitamin B1 (thiamine) is important for nerve impulse transmission and cellular energy production.

L-Tryptophan is an essential amino acid in the horse’s diet that is required for the production of the important hormone serotonin, which is associated with mood and pleasure. L-tryptophan is included in Super So Kalm at a safe level to support the daily requirement, particularly in those sharp or anxious horses that are likely to be receiving minimal concentrates, and consequently may be receiving sub-optimal levels of this key amino acid.

Chamomile is a natural plant that has been used for centuries for its soothing and calming properties.

All ingredients are selected to ensure they are fully compliant with the Rules of Racing and the FEI guidelines for Clean Sport.

Key Ingredients per 30g Serving

Product Description 

Modern horses and ponies are subjected to many stresses and challenges – including moving yards to new management and forage sources, strenuous training and competition programmes, national and international travel to stay-away shows, and high starch diets to provide energy. This disruption can adversely affect performance in many ways, ranging from a subtle decrease in energy production or a reduction in immunity, through to a decrease in gut pH and metabolic and immune system disruption, but certainly to a significant decrease in health, wellbeing and performance. 

Pro-Gut Balancer is a unique combination of pre and probiotics, together with a mannan oligosaccharide (MOS), to help maintain the health of the microbial population in the light of the many challenges faced by modern horses and ponies.

Benefits of Pro Gut Balancer

Pro-Gut Balancer provides a unique triple action approach to maintaining gut health:

1. Probiotics (from the Greek “for life”) Pro Gut Balancer contains the only live yeast licensed for use in horses, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, with the highest number of live colony forming units (cfu) per serve. This live yeast plays several vital roles:

• Helping fibre digestion, by using their hyphae to help pull the fibre particle apart. This enables the fibre digesting bacteria to colonize and digest the fibre more readily, producing volatile fatty acids (VFA’s) which are a vital energy source for the horse.
• Scavenging pockets of oxygen in the gut, which would otherwise be toxic to many of the beneficial microbes.
• Outcompeting the lactic acid producing microbes, and encouraging the growth of those which can use lactic acid, thus helping to reduce the likelihood of a drop in hindgut pH which can disrupt the delicate balance in the microbiome.

2. Prebiotics are typically fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS), usually obtained from sugarbeet, but are also naturally found in a number of vegetables of fruits such as chicory, onions, asparagus roots, garlic, Jerusalem artichokes, leeks and bananas.

Unlike most carbohydrates, these FOS’s are largely unaffected by stomach acid, and other digestive enzymes, but instead, they are selectively fermented by many of the beneficial bacteria in the hindgut. In other words, they act as a food source for, and selectively encourage the growth and activity of the beneficial intestinal bacteria which are associated with health and well-being.

3. Mannan-oligosaccharides (MOS): Is obtained from the cell walls of yeasts, and contains beta glucans as well as mannans, acting as a prebiotic. 

Pro-Gut Balancer should be fed for 7-10 days before, during and for 7-10 days after any stressful activity that might adversely impact the microbiome such as long distance travelling, moving yards, broodmares going away to stud, youngstock starting sales prep, or after illness or injury.

Elite competition and racehorses, with ongoing strenuous training and competition programmes may benefit from longer term daily use.

Ingredients & Nutrition

Collagen – one of the most abundant proteins in the body, and provides the structural framework for cartilage, to help give it strength and elasticity.  We are proud to confirm that we use a sustainable and ethical source of marine collagen.

Hyaluronic acid – a key compound called a glycosaminoglycan (GAG) which helps to maintain the viscosity of the joint fluid, to lubricate the cartilage and act as an additional shock absorber.

Amino acids – to provide the nutritional building blocks for the production of the amino sugars. The best known amino sugar is probably glucosamine, which is important as a subunit for the production of other compounds called glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) which then bind to the collagen framework in the cartilage, to help give it greater strength and elasticity.

MSM – provides a natural, bioavailable form of sulphur which is a key mineral for the bonding of compounds within the cartilage framework, to enhance strength, and also helps to maintain a normal inflammatory response.

Key trace minerals including manganese, silicon and copper - which all play important roles in the production of structural compounds such as chondroitin, as well as in the production of collagen and hyaluronic acid. These minerals also play key roles in the production of important antioxidants.

Product Information

Performance horses’ joints are subjected to extreme forces during both training and competition, and cartilage and joint fluid are often the first areas to show signs of wear and tear. Cartilage is the spongy, elastic material that covers the ends of the bones within a joint, acting as a major shock absorber and helping to reduce friction. Joint or synovial fluid should be thick and viscous, to bathe and lubricate the joint, also acting as a vital shock absorber.

Cortaflex® HA Super Fenn Powder provides nutritional building blocks to help specialized cells, called chondrocytes, to maintain healthy cartilage, as well as providing hyaluronic acid to help maintain healthy joint fluid.
