Product information

Vetrogut Balance & Protect, next-generation gut balancer & immune system booster.

Acts like a multivitamin boosting the gut and the immune system. Seasonal changes to their forage with little turnout can cause digestive imbalance and a stressed immune system. Promotes the optimum gastric environment, including the lower hindgut and improves immune function.

Why is it unique?

Most other gut balancer are essentially a blend of pro-biotics (live yeast) & pre-biotics (FOS).  Vetrogut  Balance & Protect is classed as a postbiotic.  Essentially the prebiotics provide the fuel for the good bacteria in the gut, the probiotics (in this case yeast) populate the gut to promote digestion and postbiotics are the metabolites produced by the yeast &/or bacteria during fermentation.  The efficacy of the fermentation in the gut can vary depending on the health & stress status of the horse.  By feeding the Vetrogut Balance & Protect you are feeding the metabolites directly to the horse and not waiting for the fermentation to take place in the gut of the horse making it much more effective, especially for stressed; senior or poor doers.

How Does it Work?

Simply put, prebiotics combined with probiotics produce postbiotics. The powerful postbiotics in Vetrogut Balance & Protect work to sustain a healthy immune system, promote good bacteria, and maintain gut balance. The unique metabolites in Vetrogut Balance & Protect support robust digestive health by balancing the immune system and gut microbiota while optimising gut morphology. The prebiotic activity of Vetrogut Balance & Protect helps promote a healthy balance of bacteria in the lower hindgut gastrointestinal tract. At the same time, the product’s antioxidant activity improves immune function.

What are the key benefits?
