( Feeding ) Gastric Ulcers
British Horse Feed Products Suitable for Equines Prone to Gastric Ulcers
A
s part of a balanced diet, both Speedi-Beet and Fibre-Beet are BETA Approved soaked fibre prod- ucts that are suitable for horses and ponies prone
to gastric ulcers. Speedi-Beet was one of the first 10 minute quick soaking Beet pulp products to be awarded on this scheme which identifies feeds that are suitable for use in a feeding regime where scientific evidence supports a reduction in the incidence of equine gastric ulcer syndrome.
Speedi-Beet and Fibre-Beet are both low in starch and
sugar, high in fibre and are particularly rich in pectins. It is these pectins that have been shown to strengthen and thicken the stomach mucus which in turn helps protect against high levels of stomach acid. Additionally, both products have a high acid binding
capacity which means they can soak up excess stomach acid and help maintain the stomach at the correct level of acidity. Fibre-Beet also contains alfalfa, which has been shown
to have a high ‘acid binding capacity’ that can last up to six hours, even when fed alongside hard feed. It has been
carefully designed with a blend of highly degradable fibre sources that provide optimum fermentation patterns to help keep the horse’s digestive system healthy. Fibre-Beet, when fermented, produces high levels of
butyric acid, which aids the function of the cells of the gut wall, and gives out low levels of lactic acid, making it an ideal alkaline feed.
Speedi-Beet RRP: £12.50 - £13.50 and Fibre-Beet RRP: £13.50 - £14.50.
