Vetpro Digest Rite Sport
Especially formulated for both sport and pleasure horses whose diets are based on pasture and some hard feed.
Digest-Rite is more than just a simple digestive additive – (like those containing live yeast cultures). Digest-Rite contains pre-biotics (mannan oligosaccharides), digestive enzymes (amylase and glucanase), rice bran and binding silicated oxides.
It has a 4 way action:
- Firstly by slowing the passage of food through the small intestine, allowing more time for the horse’s own digestive enzymes to work.
- Secondly, by enhancing digestion through the inclusion of enzymes that break down sugar and starch.
- The inclusion of the pre-biotics helps maintain a functional gut wall and ensures that nutrients are absorbed efficiently following digestion.
- Finally the silicated oxides help prevent the absorption of potentially harmful toxins .
- Digest-Rite should be fed to sport and pleasure horses receiving a grass and grain diet or those grazing pastures where conditions are likely to cause nutritional problems such as over-excitability, muscle tye-up, laminitis or are grazing on fresh pasture or containing endophyte rye grass ,paspalum or kikuyu.
Digest-Rite contains no prohibited substances so can be safely fed before and during competition.
Daily Dose Rate:
20gm per Kg of hard feed (grains or pre-mixes) or 50gms per day for horses whose food intake is predominately forage (fibre) and pasture .
