Collection: Digestive Health & Support

Horses have evolved to be continual grazers with continual filling of the stomach.  When this is interrupted or the horse is put under additional stress digestive upset and issues can occur.  The first step is to evaluate the current feeding program and management practices to decrease the upset.  Then supplements can be added to aid in the healing and management of the condition.
