The main aim is to ensure that the whole process is as stress free as possible and teh key to this is preparation. Correct preparation and diet can lesson the impact of the foal’s digestive system as the balance of the microflora within the foal’s gut can easily be unbalanced by stress, which can result in scouring and invasion by bad bacteria. Helps to maintain healthy acid levels in the gut and may be used during periods where d isturbance of the microflora has occurred within the digestive tract. If your horse’s condition and work level mean they need more energy or ‘calories’ than forage alone can provide, it’s best to supply that through sources of highly digestible fibre like Coligone Fibre Bio or Coligone Fibre Cubes, alongside grass chop to encourage chewing.

Weaning time is just around the corner and schedules and weaning programmes will almost certainly be in full swing. Weaning can be the most stressful time for mares and foals and every aspect must be taken into consideration. For the foal, weaning stress can result in lower resistance to disease and loss of condition. It’s a time when stereotypical behaviours can develop and gastric irritation can occur. Suitable for use when training, competing & travelling or during times of stress/ill health where disturbance of the microflora has occurred within the digestive tract. Use during periods where gastric acid levels are high & saliva production is low. Yea sacc and MOS/FOS Prebiotics encourage hind gut fermentation and actively stimulate fibre digesters, leading to effective fibre digestion.If you’re using this product, you may be interested in using our new liquid feed balancer MultiVit Pro which is designed to be fed alongside Coligone Powder. Administer a syringe prior to competing to help your horse remain calm and enable him to work at his best. Research has indicated that the equine hindgut microbiome contains a diverse range of bacterial species. This diversity is associated with a healthy microbiome, with a loss in diversity being linked to digestive disease and upset. A diverse diet promotes a diverse microbiome, which in turn promotes a healthy hindgut, and a healthy hindgut = a healthy horse. Coligone Liquid or Oral Paste Syringes are fast acting and assist the horse in these circumstances – Coligone helps disperse gases which are trapped within the digestive tract and soothes the digestive system. 10. Can I feed medication alongside Coligone?

Perfect for all horses and ponies, including those which suffer from laminitis and colic issues and those with sugar and starch intolerances.

Plenty of good-quality forage helps keep the digestive tract functioning well and keeps those all-important hindgut microbes who thrive on fibre, happy and healthy. Your horse’s hindgut and associated microbiome is pivotal to their health and needs to be kept happy and healthy all year round whatever the season. In winter the noticeable drop in temperature brings with it a loss of nutrients from grass and the potential need to replace what is missing through feed, leading to changes in your horse’s diet and routine which can have a significant impact on the health and integrity of their hindgut. When additional energy is required, this can also be supplied through sources of oil such as Ex-Selenium Oil. To help maintain a healthy hindgut, fibre should always be the first choice with oil added to boost calorie intake according to work and condition. Using fibre and oil instead of high levels of starch from cereals will help prevent excess starch reaching the hindgut and causing dysbiosis within the microbiome, which can compromise hindgut health. 4. Manage Dietary Change At Hyperdrug, we recognise the significance of maintaining a healthy digestive system in horses. Consequently, we offer an array of supplements focused on digestion, gut balance, and probiotics to support your horse's gastric and digestive health. A combination of Yea Sacc and MOS/FOS Prebiotics encourage hind gut fermentation and actively stimulate fibre digesters, leading to effective fibre digestion.
