Horse Digestive Care & Probiotics

Berg Oil is a traditional remedy reported to control excessive fermentation and decrease gastrointestinal discomfort in horses, cattle and sheep.

Berg Oil is a combination of wood tars, turpentine oils and methylated spirits that has been used for many years and has been reported to decrease gas production associated with fermentation.

Taken orally, Berg Oil does not irritate the mucous membranes of the mouth and the digestive tract.

The actives in Berg Oil are reported to be calmative and may assist in relieving gastric discomfort. They may also help counteract the griping action of purgatives.

Methylated spirits reduces the frequency of sudden muscle spasm, background spasticity with associated colic pain and functional disability caused by the excess gastrointestinal fermentation.

ADMINISTRATION: Pour the dose on the rear of the tongue and hold animal’s head raised for a few seconds after dosing to ensure the Berg Oil is swallowed. Dose may to be repeated after 2 hours if required.

3 key focus points that may help horses maintain normal G.I. physiology

A. Gut Acid Imbalance (Ulcers type symptoms)
Light = 50mL x 2 pre feed am + pm for 10 days
Heavy = 50mL x 2 pre feed am + pm for 20 days Why? Nominal pH 7.9 = alkaline + bio-available collagen nutrients for stomach linings
May need daily maintenance of 25mL GI or 20mL Conditioner Plus (Nominal pH 7.7)

B. Gut Stress (Colic or founder type symptoms)
50mL x 2 in 12 hours, may need additional 30mL pre-feed for 30 days.
Why? – help maintain normal acetic acid + inbuilt toxin binder
Generally regarded imbalances lead to hind gut fermentation (pre-cursor to colic)

C. Gut Calm
50mL as required (maximum of 200mL in 24 hours)

Why is gut health so important?

Gut health plays an important role not only in uptaking nutrients but also in disease prevention, metabolism balance, behaviour, & general vitality. Research shows sub-optimal gut health is linked to various health issues.

Numerous stressors may compromise gut health. These can be hard to avoid in daily life, and include food composition & regimen, pathogens, mycotoxins,  environment, travel, intense work & climate stressors. Thanks to EAC's cutting-edge “BIM” technology & high-quality ingredients, in-sideout horse can help support your equine partner & optimise their performance.

iO Apple Cider Vinegar 6% with Vitamin B1 and Garlic helps support the immune system by discouraging harmful bacteria while promoting beneficial gut bacteria.
Used as a regular part of feeding, it is believed to assist with arthritis and joint conditions. Apple cider vinegar helps acidify the stomach for optimum digestion.

Quick Facts & Benefits: As a natural insect control, Apple Cider Vinegar has been known to cause thiamine (Vitamin B1) to be excreted through the skin, repelling flies and mosquitoes. Optimum levels of B vitamins (particularly B1) in the body seem to discourage bugs.

Apple Cider Vinegar is prepared from low acid, low tannin dessert apples, which are crushed and then fermented. The product appears cloudy but settles to form a sediment or curd at the bottom of the container. Apple Cider Vinegar also contains Vitamin B1 2g/L. Horses are able to synthesise Vitamin B1 in the colon by bacterial action, however, further supplement of this vitamin is beneficial in horses fed poor quality pasture, hay and grain.

Kohnke’s Own FABBY is a multi-action digestive supplement for horses.

Kohnke’s Own FABBY is formulated using the latest scientific knowledge in probiotic and prebiotic research to help optimise the digestive efficiency of the hindgut (large intestine) in all horses. The highly concentrated probiotics, multiple premium prebiotics and other hindgut activating nutrients comprise a unique and powerful formulation that is suitable for horses of all ages and dietary intakes.

The Premium Probiotic and Prebiotic Supplement with Hindgut Activators

FABBY is an acronym for the many benefical active ingredients which naturally help your horse’s gut microbiota!

Features specific nutrients with dietary roles in:

• Functional fibres for hindgut activation
• Active yeast components to foster growth of good bacteia
• Beneficial prebiotics to help conversion of feed to energy
• Broad spectrum mycotoxin binders to help minimize digestive issues
• Yeasts & other live probiotics to help balance hindgut populations

Probiotics:

The probiotics in FABBY include highly researched and equine-targeted live yeasts plus bacteria including Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium strains. These probiotics are highly concentrated (18 Billion CFU per maintenance dose) and actively reduce hindgut acidosis without artificial buffers. Acid imbalance in the hindgut can cause serious problems, including acidic build up, hindgut ulcers or ‘cow-pat’ manure. FABBY protects against negative effects of hindgut starch overload in horses consuming high starch diets. The live yeasts in FABBY are also proven to boost digestion of fibre sources for improved condition in ‘hard keeper’ or ‘poor-doer’ horses.

Prebiotics:

FABBY includes multiple prebiotics to help feed ‘good bacteria’ populations to positively influence the hindgut microbiota. These prebiotics have been proven to help adapt to new diets, especially after sudden feed changes and improve conversion of feed to energy in horses with inefficient digestive function.

Active Yeast Components:

Active Yeast Components are specially purified parts of the yeast cell, including MOS (mannan oligosaccharides), B-glucans and nucleotides which are designed to block attachment of infectious ‘bad’ bacteria and the action of pathogens in the hindgut. The purified nucleotides in FABBY benefit digestive function and regenerate the gastro-intestinal lining. The combination of these Active Yeast Components may reduce scouring or loose manure in horses with poor hindgut microbiota balance.

Functional Fibres:

The functional fibres in FABBY are a special blend of digestible and indigestible fibres which are designed to stimulate important areas of the gastro-intestinal tract for improved function, helping to regulate food passage through the digestive system. Optimising the working of the hindgut is an important process in healthy manure production and general good digestion.

Mycotoxin Binders:

The mycotoxin binders in FABBY constitute a broad-spectrum approach using multiple types to counter a wider range of mycotoxins, but are specially selected to not absorb or bind other feed nutrients, such as vitamins. FABBY is formulated to help horses exposed to feed ingested mycotoxins (up to a moderate level) and reduce risk of digestive upsets or problems in horses with feed sensitivities.

Specific Amino Acids including L-Glutamine:

Specific amino acids such as L-glutamine are particularly included as it helps to regulate passage of manure through the gastro-intestinal tract and also feeds the cells lining the digestive system with energy to optimise digestive activity and maintain normal barrier function. The combination of ingredients in FABBY are uniquely designed to help the entire hindgut and its contents.

Proven Results from Extensive Research:

FABBY has been research tested for over 3 years in field trials with over 100 Aussie horses. Trial owners reported their horses particularly benefited from optimised hindgut function, reduced loose manure or scouring issues, better utilisation of feed to maintain condition, plus visibly improved general health and vitality, even in situations of stress, change in feed or hay, lack of pasture, age, infirmity or high grain/starch diets.

DigestiveHP is built for horses under intense stress, in high work, competition or recovering from digestive challenges.
If your horse is showing intense or persistent signs of poor gut health such as regular loose manure, anxiety that doesn’t resolve, spooky behaviour, dull coat or hooves, or unexplained low energy, it's likely their gut needs more than just maintenance.

DigestiveHP is built on the same foundation as DigestiveEQ but formulated to have increased gastric buffering and with TruEquine delivering a higher concentration of postbiotics. It also contains higher levels of amino acids, an additional amino acid and an additional digestive enzyme, making  DigestiveHP a high performing gut support for horses under stress, in high work, or recovering from serious digestive challenges.

Visible signs of optimal gut health include firm manure, shiny coat, healthy hooves, enhanced stress resilience, calmer behaviour and consistent performance.

This advanced formulation works from the foregut to the hindgut, supporting the full 30 metre long digestive tract - ideal when everyday support just isn’t enough. Always consult your veterinarian or equine nutritionist for specific advice for your horse.
