A Gut Instinct for Friendly Bacteria

We spend £189 million each year on probiotic yoghurts and drinks for ourselves, but what about our horses?

Probiotics are friendly bacteria that usually thrive in the gut, aiding digestion and improving immunity. They have traditionally been fed as a supplement to horses undergoing worming or post antibiotic treatment, experiencing stress or suffering from illness. However, as human trials have discovered, feeding probiotics daily is a far more effective way of boosting the levels of beneficial bacteria in the gut.

Is your grazing as nutritious as you think?

Horses are no longer self-sufficient. Agriculturally managed grazing contains fewer nutrients and a narrower range of grasses meaning horses may not be getting enough beneficial bacteria to balance their digestive system. This deficiency will affect the performance and condition of any equine from foal to competition horse, and older horses too

In response to this new knowledge, Probiotics International Ltd has redeveloped its popular Protexin supplements. The new Equine Premium range consists of three core products: Quick Fix, Gut Balancer and Acid-Ease and each product provides the friendly bacteria required for a balanced gut in safe and effective forms that are easy to measure and feed.

Protexin probiotics have been scientifically developed to replace and maintain the levels of friendly bacteria in the horse’s gut.

When it comes to your horse’s health you need a brand you can trust to ‘do the job’ at a sensible price. That brand is Protexin.
