Gastro Control – mineral- and yeast-based complementary feed for horses

A horse's digestion is constantly at work, and the overall diet affects how smoothly day-to-day life runs in practice.

Changes in feeding, varying conditions, or physical stress may prompt a fresh look at the overall picture – what is fed, how, and at what rhythm.

Why Gastro Control

Gastro Control is a complementary feed that brings to the diet:

• mineral-based raw materials
• yeast
• marine-derived minerals

→ as part of a balanced and considered diet

Ingredients as part of the diet

Bentonite clay
Bentonite clay is a natural mineral used in feeding due to its natural physical properties.

Brewer's yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae)
Brewer's yeast is a natural source of B vitamins and amino acids.
It is commonly used in horse feeding as part of a balanced diet.

Lithothamnium calcareum algae
A marine-derived mineral that is rich in calcium and other minerals.

Charcoal
Charcoal is traditionally used in animal feeding as part of various nutritional solutions.

Gastro Control is often chosen in situations where:

• you want to clarify the structure of the diet

Background information and studies

The use of yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) in horse feeding has been examined in studies, particularly from the perspective of gut microbial activity and fibre fermentation.

The effect of diet on horse digestion and microbiota has been widely covered in nutritional research, where the overall diet is seen as a key factor.

Diets containing marine-derived minerals have been studied from the perspective of their mineral composition as part of horse feeding.

Studies are used to understand the background information and the known composition of the raw materials.
