You treated the ulcers. Theyโre gone. But if you donโt make some changes? Theyโll be back.
Performance horses are constantly under physical and mental stress. Add in travel, tight schedules, inconsistent hay, and NSAIDs, and youโve got a recipe for gut drama. Prevention is way easier (and cheaper) than treating ulcers twice.
๐๐ผ๐ฟ๐ฎ๐ด๐ฒ ๐ณ๐ถ๐ฟ๐๐:
- Feed small meals often or give free-choice hay
- Offer alfalfa daily to help buffer stomach acid
- Never ride on an empty stomach, throw a flake while you tack up
๐ฆ๐๐ฝ๐ฝ๐น๐ฒ๐บ๐ฒ๐ป๐๐ฒ ๐๐ฒ ๐ฎ๐ฐ๐๐๐ฎ๐น๐น๐ ๐๐๐ฒ:
- Zesterra: liquid gut support that helps buffer stress and acid
- FullBucket EQ Probiotic or GI Paste: top-tier digestive balance and post-treatment recovery
- Red Hot Aminos: encourages appetite and supports lean muscle mass
๐ ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฎ๐ด๐ฒ๐บ๐ฒ๐ป๐ ๐๐ถ๐ฝ๐:
- Use slow feeders if stalled for long hours
- Maintain turnout as much as possible
- Avoid long-term NSAID use unless necessary
- Be mindful of hard ground, stressy rides, and schedule changes
Ulcers are sensitive to change; feed, environment, training, and even hauling schedules. The more consistent you are, the happier (and healthier) their gut will be.
