I had tried dozens of supplements and prescriptive medications for faecal water syndrome in my 29 year old TB. Nothing worked and his age meant I was adamant I didn’t want him scoped. I contacted FEEDMARK and they recommended sand free. It wasn’t in my radar but when it was explained what the product does (absorbs extra water in the gut) I knew it was worth a try! Finally, a company whose only focus is on animal health and knows what they’re selling! Thank you from me and from Finnegan!!

Nutrition Information

Psyllium has been used traditionally in humans, and is a recognised management option for horses with sand burdens. Containing a soluble fibre source, Sand-Free™ forms a gel-like substance when exposed to water. The water absorbing properties means it acts as a hydroscopic sponge, allowing it to pick up and aid the removal of unwanted foreign material (such as sand and indigestible roughage) from the folds and bends of the digestive tract.

Composition

Psyllium husks (Planago ovata)

Analytical

Crude protein 3.1%, Crude oils & fats 0.8%, Crude fibre 4.8%, Crude ash 2.6%, Sodium 0.07%

Why does Sand-Free™ need to be fed dry? 

Psyllium is a solubule fibre source, which forms a gel-like substance when exposed to water. The water absorbing properties of Psyllium enable it to act as a hydroscopic sponge, surrounding and removing unwanted foreign material (sand, toxins and indigestible roughage) from the folds and bends of the digestive tract. 

 

Can I feed Sand-Free™ if I feed a soaked feed?

You can add Sand-Free™ to a soaked feed, however add them near to the time you will be feeding your horse. This is because Sand-Free™ will absorb water and form a gel-like substance and we want this process to happen once the horse has ingested the Sand-Free™, and not happen in their bowl.
