Dietary supplementary feed for horses
Carefully selected stomach-protecting substances soothe and strengthen the stomach lining.
Application
EQUIPUR - gastral effectively supports the gastric mucosa and reduces stress reactions in the gastrointestinal tract that can lead to reduced blood flow and a weakening of the protective and regenerative mechanisms of the gastric mucosa, potentially resulting in stomach ulcers. The high-quality ingredients in EQUIPUR - gastral thus provide comprehensive protection for the gastric mucosa and contribute to the long-term stabilization of normal digestion.
Stomach ulcer in horses
Previously, it was thought that the problem of "gastric ulcers in horses" only affected sport horses fed high amounts of concentrated feed. Today, we know that many recreational horses also struggle with stomach problems. While feeding is a primary trigger for irritation and inflammation of the gastric mucosa, stress within the herd can also be responsible for stomach issues in horses. Many horses suffer particularly during the winter months, as they often have to live in more confined spaces after the summer grazing season. Furthermore, competition for food, dominance fights, and extended periods without food are recurring causes. Medications can also irritate the gastric mucosa, leading to painful lesions.
Diagnosing stomach ulcers in horses
Currently, the only reliable diagnostic method is gastroscopy. However, teeth grinding, frequent yawning, poor appetite, bad breath, or mild, recurring stomach colic are early indicators of a stomach problem. Switching to a high-fiber diet, reducing concentrated feed, and administering an acid buffer several times a day (e.g.,...) can help alleviate these symptoms. EQUIPUR – gastral ) over a period of several weeks, the damaged stomach wall can calm down and heal.

mixed into the concentrated feed.
Due to the higher selenium content, the daily ration should not exceed 30 g per animal per day for foals, 60 g per animal per day for young horses, 90 g per animal per day for ponies, and 150 g per animal per day for horses (500 kg).

General nutritional science findings
Gastric ulcers are far more common in horses, especially foals and sport horses, than previously thought (foals ~50%, sport horses ~60%, racehorses ~80-90%). The signs of a gastric ulcer are often atypical: refusing to eat concentrated feed, teeth grinding, chewing without food, flehmen response, increased salivation, bad breath, poor general condition, mild colic symptoms after meals, and, most importantly, reduced performance. The development of a gastric ulcer almost always begins with a weakening of the protective mechanisms of the gastric mucosa, allowing acids to irritate and damage the lining. If this process is repeated repeatedly, it can ultimately lead to a gastric perforation (especially in foals).
The causes of gastric ulcers are multifaceted and lie primarily in the horse's susceptibility to stress (poor housing conditions, group pressure in foals and young horses, training, transport, competition, etc.) as well as in inadequate feed management (poor feed quality, excessive amounts of concentrated feed per meal, irregular feeding times, etc.). Illnesses, medications, and the intensity of work also play a role.
To prevent the development of stomach ulcers or to effectively support the regeneration process after an illness, many factors must be considered in the therapy. Supportive nutrition also plays an important role. The sensible interplay of... Tryptophan (Stress reduction), Mucus and Pectins (Mucous membrane protection), Magnesium oxide (acid buffer), Antioxidants (Stomach cell protection), herbs (Promoting blood circulation), unsaturated fatty acids (Anti-inflammatory) and regenerative substances contribute to a rapid healing process and effective protective mechanism on the gastric mucosa.
