Gastro Balance

What is Gastro Balance?

Gastro Balance was developed to be a proactive and preventative approach for achieving optimum health in the equine gastrointestinal tract.  Many health issues begin with an imbalance in this delicate system. We developed this specialized formula to nurture, balance, replenish and support the entire gastrointestinal tract .

Gastro Balance is a synergist blend of herbs, digestive enzymes, probiotics,  prebiotics , microflora preparation (fermentation solubles), chelated trace minerals, colloidal minerals, vitamins and other nutraceuticals. This proprietary blend sets the stage for efficient digestion and enables proper assimilation of essential nutrients. Each of these ingredients was chosen for their amazing powers in soothing and balancing the delicate equine gut.  Unlike many gastro medications and treatments. Gastro Balance  supports the restoration of essential ‘good’ bacteria which in turn supports healing and ultimately good health.

Gastro Balance is recommended for symptoms of gastric distress which may include; reduction in feed intake, loose stools, irritability, colic symptoms, etc.  Gastro Balance is essential during periods of stress from injury or illness, de-worming, antibiotic and anti-inflammatory treatment and medications in general.  Although these items are necessary at times they can contribute to the breakdown of essential flora and good bacteria in the digestive tract.

Ingredients:

1. HERBS: Gentian, ginger, fenugreek, fennel, peppermint. These herbs are either digestive tonics, which include “bitters” that stimulate the production and secretion of enzymes, or herbs rich in nutrients such as resins, emollients, fatty acids, essential oils, minerals that regulate peristaltic and reduce gas production. Nettles, caraway, papaya, capsicum and licorice have recently been added!
2. PROBIOTICS include beneficial friendly microflora preparations: Lactobacillus acidophilus, L. lactis, bifidus,S. Faecum, B. subtilis and A. orizae. They produce inhibitory substances against pathogens such as acidolin, hydrogen peroxyde, and lactic They also produce a variety of enzymes, both metabolic and digestive in nature which help regulate the pH and absorption of intestinal bolus.
3. FERMENTATION SOLUBLES are the condensed substrate of the fermentation of whey inoculated with lactic-acid bacteria and fortified with specific microbial nutrients. They are rich in the metabolites produced by probiotics and therefore act as stimulants for growth and reproduction of beneficial intestinal micro-organisms. These solubles are also documented growth inhibitors for pathogens (e.g. salmonella).
4. KELP is an excellent source of over 60 minerals that are naturally chelated by the plant, plus 22 amino-acids, 12 vitamins, and some polysaccharide. Kelp is an excellent source of protein bound iodine, which is especially important for endocrine function, reproduction, immune activity, and healthy nervous systems.
5. CHELATED TRACE MINERALS include iron, copper, cobalt, zinc, manganese, iodine, selenium, magnesium, and These metal elements are organically bound to amino-acids or choline citric acid compounds. These forms of micro-nutrients are more biologically available as inorganic minerals and are not antagonistic to vitamins or intestinal flora. Most important, they are devoid of the toxic aspects of inorganic minerals (e.g. sulfates).
