Wild horses were able to graze the wide range of herbs and plants they needed for their overall good health. The domestication of horses, restrictive grazing, and poor soil quality have all reduced the variety in their diets resulting in poor hindgut health.
The diversity of the gut bacteria determines the health of the hindgut. With 80% of a horse’s immune system living in the hindgut, low diversity reduces a horse’s ability to fight disease and absorb nutrients. The greater the variety in your horse’s diet, the more diverse the nutrient supply for the bacteria in their hindgut.
Our herbal mixes play a crucial role in supporting a diverse diet for your horse. By providing a variety of nutrients, they contribute to a well-fed and diverse range of gut microbes, promoting the overall health and well-being of your horse.
