Complementary feed for horses
Intestinal active ingredients stabilize physiological digestion and protect against toxins.
Application
EQUIPUR - digest plus contains probiotic digestibility enhancers as well as intestinal regulating and toxin-binding active ingredients to stabilize the intestinal flora and regulate intestinal activity. This is particularly important in cases of fluctuating feed quality, after illness or medication, which can lead to colic, toxin exposure, fermentation disorders, or fecal water. The prevention of nutrition-related intestinal health problems is particularly important in horses.

given with the feed.
As a preventive measure, the dosage can be halved. Due to the higher content of trace elements, the daily ration should not be more than doubled.
Feeding period
For maximum effectiveness, the product should be applied over an extended period at least for three weeks. Feeding the whole year round does not pose any problems and will be beneficial.
General findings of nutritional science
Poor quality feed, changes in feeding times or other stress for the horse can lead to fermentation failure, colic, loose manure, or diarrhoea. These inevitably decrease the level of performance; tense muscles and loss of appetite are also a sign of this condition. A reasonable combination of digestive active substances can either prevent derailment of the digestive machine or support the regenerative process after illness and operation of the gastro-intestinal tract. After all, a healthy intestinal flora leads to an improved health status and thus to increased well-being, reduced susceptibility to illness and significantly increased performance.
Probiotics (live yeasts) are yeast cultures that can multiply in the horse's intestine. They improve the intestinal flora by promoting desirable microbial colonization, suppressing pathogenic germs, neutralizing toxins, and stabilizing the pH value. In addition, the body's natural defenses are effectively activated by stimulating the immune system in the intestine.
Prebiotics (MOS = mannan-oligosaccharides) boost the body's immune system and promote performance.
Herbs like milk thistle, artichoke, dandelion, and liquorice accelerate the detoxication of toxins through the liver.
Kieselguhr can bind up to 20 times its volume in liquids and, together with cellulose, has a regulating effect on the water content of intestinal contents in cases of diarrhea, fecal water, and constipation. Kieselguhr can also effectively bind harmful substances and quickly transport them out of the body..
Wheat bran and apple pomace promote smooth and regular digestion thanks to their high crude fiber content.
Vitamins, minerals and trace elements must be supplemented in horses with impaired intestinal function, as disorders of the digestive tract or damage to the intestinal flora (e.g., due to antibiotic therapy) often result in an insufficient supply of these vital substances.
INFOBOX
Faecal water and other digestive problems in horses
In addition to the various digestive problems in horses, a large number of horses now suffer from so-called fecal water. When the horse manure, which is usually still normally shaped and solid, is released, a not inconsiderable amount of intestinal water is released. This fecal water sticks together the horse's inner thigh area and must therefore be washed off regularly. This causes skin irritation and hair falls out in these areas. Horses do not always react to fecal water due to a disturbed intestinal flora; Diarrhea, flatulence or mild colic are also indications. Medications (antibiotics), spoiled or fungal feed, toxins or metabolic disorders can lead to an impairment of intestinal activity. Using intestinal-regulating herbs, B vitamins, rock powder and oilseeds with a high mucilage content and significant water-binding properties (linseed and psyllium husk), the intestinal flora can be stabilized, toxins and harmful bacteria can be bound and the intestinal mucosa can be protected.
