Horse Digestive Supplements & Gut Balancers

A horse’s digestive system is long, complex, and designed for continuous grazing—but modern management can disrupt this natural process. Digestive supplements and gut balancers help support your horse’s gut health, targeting specific areas of the digestive tract to promote comfort, efficient digestion, and overall wellbeing.

How Do Digestive Supplements for Horses Work?

The best digestive supplements target different parts of the gut. Foregut supplements may help with ulcers or early-stage digestion, while hindgut balancers work to neutralize pH levels in the cecum and encourage healthy microbial fermentation. Key ingredients include pre- and probiotics, marine algae, turmeric (for inflammation), and yeast cultures. Digestive aids are available as pellets, oils, pastes, and powders to suit every horse’s needs.

Gut Balancers for Horses

Gut balancers are especially useful for horses on grain or bagged feeds, or those at risk of laminitis or colic. By neutralizing hindgut pH and supporting beneficial microbes, gut balancers help reduce gas and promote a stable digestive environment.
