Well-known to equestrians in the UK, Coopers, the brand behind Coopers® Fly Repellent Plus, has just launched a whole new range of feed supplements, aimed at supporting good health from the inside out.
This exciting range aims to assist the many owners who are constantly looking for ways to support their horse’s gut function, coupled with a desire to keep their horse as healthy as possible. Healthy gut flora are fundamental for good fibre digestion, but the way horses are managed in modern husbandry practices can make it difficult to provide the type of diet which is high enough in fibre and affords the right environment to maintain a healthy gut bacterial equilibrium and hindgut function.
The Coopers Gut Range helps to support normal gut function using a mixture of prebiotics and postbiotics, which support the healthy (beneficial) bacteria and help maintain the normal gut flora equilibrium. By using prebiotics and postbiotics there is no need to supplement with a probiotic (live bacteria) as these compounds will support the resident healthy bacteria.
There are three products within the range:
Coopers Gut Support: prebiotic and postbiotic pellets to be mixed with feed or fed alone for daily use to help maintain normal gut function. It can also be used in periods of high energy requirements to maintain optimum body condition.
Coopers Gut Equalise: a prebiotic and postbiotic oral paste to help maintain normal digestive function in foals and adult horses during times of stress or digestive imbalance.
Coopers Gut Assist: a prebiotic and postbiotic oral powder for horses, enriched with smectite for use during periods of digestive disturbance.
