Nutrition Information

Gastric Comfort works within the horse’s stomach, offering targeted help for horses with restricted turnout, those that are sensitive around the stomach and grumpy being saddled, and horses on high starch diets. This supplement contains a unique blend of ingredients to help maintain a healthy digestive system and nutritionally soothe the stomach lining, whilst maintaining healthy pH levels to support a healthy gastric environment. Lecithin and Pectin support the delicate mucosal lining of the stomach, and once ingested, the Magnesium hydroxide forms a soothing gel, helping to coat and line the stomach. Calcium compounds and Liquorice root are added for their alkaline properties helping to maintain normal acid production.
 
Feeding Guide

 Directions for Use

 

Weight of Horse/Pony Approx. Height Amount per feed
Up to 400kg/880lb Under 14hh ½ scoop
Over 400kg/880lb Over 14hh 1 scoop

 

 

1 level (50ml) scoop of Gastric Comfort weighs approximately 32g/1.1oz.

Feed with each meal up to a maximum of three times per day to help maintain a healthy gastric environment. Gastric Comfort should be added immediately prior to feeding, keeping the supplement as dry as possible, otherwise effectiveness may be lost.

Avoid feeding large concentrate meals (pellets, mixes and grains). Instead feed little and often throughout the day, especially concentrate feeds. Always feed at least 1.5% of your horse's body weight per day as fibrous forage (for a 500kg horse feed at least 7.5kg of fibre per day). Horses showing signs of excess acid should have continuous access to forage.

Feed supplements should be fed according to body weight; height has been given as a guide. Introduce to the horses diet gradually, splitting between feeds (when applicable).

Gastric Comfort is a complementary feeding stuff for equine animals. Feedmark uses nothing in the formulation of this product that contravenes competition rules.
