Description
Soothe & Gain is a high calorie, low starch and low sugar soaked feed, suitable for horses prone to gastric ulcers. With a high calorie/energy level it is ideal for those in harder work and those that need to put on or maintain weight and condition.
- The energy that Soothe & Gain supplies is from fibre and oil, providing an excellent source of slow release, stamina-giving energy
- Being whole cereal grain free and molasses free it is low in starch and low sugar, ideal for those that react negatively to high starch diets
- The fibre sources in Soothe & Gain are also high in Beta-Glucans that form a gel-like consistency, which helps to moderate the transit speed of feed through the stomach and intestines, meaning the stomach remains fuller for longer. Soothe & Gain contains magnesium carbonate and calcium carbonate, along with a probiotic and a blend of prebiotics to help support healthy digestion
- Fully balanced with vitamins and minerals, and containing a careful selection of herbs: mint, nettle, dandelion and fenugreek for their well-known properties and ensuring Soothe & Gain is highly palatable
