Kohnke’s Own Tox-Target is the ultimate mycotoxin binder for horses with a high potency and broad-spectrum action.
Mycotoxins are toxic substances produced by moulds on grass, weeds, grain, feeds and hays. They can create significant challenges to a horse’s health.
Horses consuming mycotoxins can exhibit a range of symptoms, commonly termed mycotoxicosis. These include unexplained random spooky behaviour, skin irritation, photosensitivity, head-shaking or flicking, staggers, to gut issues, poor growth, low fertility, immune problems and lack of stamina.
Moulds that invade certain grass species can produce mycotoxins which are particularly toxic to horses. Key types include black paspalum (ergot mycotoxins), ryegrass, clovers, tall fescue, weeds such as capeweed and other grasses that grow in hot, wet or damp climates.
Tox-Target contains multiple mycotoxin binders in a concentrated formula designed for an ‘ultra-high level’ binding capacity. The combination of mineral, organic and inorganic binders give Tox-Target a broad-spectrum action to bind many different mycotoxins and allow them to be expelled in the manure, rather than being absorbed by the horse.
Long term mycotoxin exposure can negatively impact horse health and wellbeing. Tox Target contains nutrients that help to ‘detoxify’ the liver, kidneys and other organs that may have been affected by ingestion of mycotoxins.
Tox-Target has been especially researched and tested for horses grazing on pastures that are infected by mycotoxins. Extensive field trials demonstrated excellent results in helping horses that had showed visible symptoms of mycotoxicosis.
Features and Benefits:
- Mycotoxin binder for horses ingesting mycotoxins in grass, feeds, grain and hays
- For all horses requiring a specific mycotoxin binder with a broad-spectrum action
- Recommended for horses with visible symptoms of mycotoxin-related problems
- Particularly suited for horses grazing in pastures with mycotoxin-affected grasses
Unique Design:
- Includes 5 different types of mycotoxin binders for a comprehensive binding effect
- 'Ultra-high level’ binding capacity, extensively tested for optimum activity in horses
- Liver detoxifying formula; includes amino acids, choline and other helpful nutrients
- Pelleted and highly palatable for easy feeding, compatible with other supplements
Pack Weight and Days Supply:
1.2 kg pouch (20 days supply)
4kg bucket (66 days supply)
10kg bucket (166 days supply)
** Days supply is calculated from the 60 gram dose which is suitable for horses (500 kg body weight) for maintenance.
Poseidon Digestive RP is a total tract equine gut supplement, designed to meet the needs of high performance sport horses and racehorses. Digestive RP provides increased support for your horse's gut health and essential digestive and immune functions, with extra postbiotics and enzymes to enhance digestion efficacy, and additional amino acids for additional muscle repair and gut support.
This premium equine gut health product offers the benefits of:
• extra digestive enzymes for improved digestion and nutrient uptake,
• extra dual action stomach pH buffering with red marine algae and magnesium hydroxide,
• prebiotics plus a higher level of post biotics for extra gut protection and repair,
• five amino acids for stomach health and cell repair,
• an updated magnesium to calcium ratio to ensure optimum absorption and metabolisation levels
• and Elitox mycotoxin binder.
Why choose Digestive RP?
The gut of high performance sport horses and racehorses is often put under a lot of pressure, with more challenging environments, higher workloads, more 'stress' events, and higher grain levels in their feed regimes. These conditions create challenges we need to manage well, in order for a horse to maintain healthy gut function, and be able to race or perform at its best.
Digestive RP has been created to help these high performance horses, and horses on higher grain diets maintain normal gut health and function. It provides extra support compared to DigestiveEQ, to support these horses with their more challenging than ‘normal’ environments, workloads and feeding regimes.
Look for the signs of good gut health in your sporthorse or racehorse - glossy coat, good energy and performance levels, healthy hooves, calmer behaviour, good appetite, good manure, great topline and overall condition.
Kohnke's Own Troppo-Salts is a concentrated supplement of mixed salts for horses living and working in hot, humid or tropical conditions. As its name suggests, Troppo-Salts is formulated to make up shortfalls of a range of essential salts, and also provides additional Vitamin E and Vitamin C to support horses under these environmental stresses.
Features:- Contains all essential salts, and is designed to be fed on a “scoop for scoop” basis with ordinary plain salt to ensure adequate sodium intake – making it more economical to feed.
- Provides glucose to assist sodium uptake and includes added Vitamin E and Vitamin C.
- Extra potassium and magnesium salts help meet daily requirements when diets are low or inadequate in these minerals.
- Palatable, non-dusty formulation that mixes well and does not sift out of feed.
Cell-Perform™ contains a balanced, comprehensive base of vitamins and trace-minerals, with added bone minerals for the support of bone density in competition horses.
It includes extra organic selenium and vitamin E as antioxidants for muscle function and recovery when training and competing regularly and additional iron (chelated for safety) for blood replenishment after strenuous exercise.
These special micro-nutrients help to promote stamina, strength, robust movement and impulsion, so competition horses can step up to the next level and meet the demands of dressage, show-jumping, eventing or other competitive horse disciplines.
Cell-Perform™ contributes bone minerals and trace-minerals, many in organic or 'chelated' form, including additional organic selenium, chromium and iron, as well as a full range of stability protected vitamins, which have essential roles in metabolic function during exercise.
Each Supplet® pellet in the 5 Supplet® blend contains only compatible nutrient groups to help maintain optimum potency and benefit, eliminating sift-out, dust and sludging in the feed, or blow away from outdoor feed tubs, which is a problem with powders and liquids.
SIZES:
1.4kg;
4kg;
10kg
Handy Hint: Cell-Perform™ is a suitable to make up shortfalls in the diet where the full recommended amount of prepared feed is not fed and additional grains, such as oats, barley or corn, are added to boost energy levels. As a guideline, for every extra 1kg of grain added, add 15g (1/3 scoopful) of Cell-Perform™. Use half of this dose for competition ponies (250-300kg body)
Cell-Provide contains 3 cold-pressed separate Supplet® pellets to help makeup shortfalls in common 'cool' and lower energy feeds, chaff and hay. Also recommended for laminitic horses being fed soaked hay and weight reducing diets.
Cell-Provide® is palatable to even the 'fussiest' of eaters – in fact, most horses and ponies will take them off your hand-an easy way to supplement horses, ponies, miniatures and aged, retired animals at pasture.
SIZES:
1.4kg;
3.5kg;
10kg
Handy Hint: The economical Cell-Provide 1.4kg pack provides 23 full doses for working and aged horses and 46 doses (6 weeks!) for a pony – horses and ponies at grass can be given their daily supplement off the hand!

A source of the three essential Branch Chain Amino Acids Valine, Leucine and Isoleucine plus cofactors which assist in normal energy production and protein synthesis in horses.
Branch chain amino acids(BCAA) cannot be synthesized by the body and research studies have shown that they play an important role in muscle recovery after exercise. Following heavy exercise, branch chain amino acids levels in the bloodstream are reduced to the point where the body needs to breakdown muscle cells and degrade liver protein to supply more branch chain amino acids for the body to use. When horses are given branch chain amino acids (BCAA) within 30 minutes after strenuous work, the body will use these added BCAA in the bloodstream first. This reduces the need to use muscle cells and liver proteins.
The supplementation with VETSENSE BCAA Paste will assist with the muscles need for extra BCAA allowing faster recovery by decreasing the severity of muscle cramping due to lactic acid build up.

In late 2020 International Animal Health began rebranding their product which was formerly known as Protexin to a new name "ProN8ure".
BENEFITS OF PRON8URE:
- Establishment of beneficial gut microflora
- Suppression of E. Coli Salmonella & Aeromonas spp
- Treatment and control of scouring and diarrhoea
- Improved digestibility of feed
- Improved growth and feed conversion
- Reduced digestive upsets
- Enhanced animal health
- Re-establishment of gut microflora following antibiotics, wormers or vaccination
- Reducing stress (stress disrupts normal intestinal balance)
- Safe, non-toxic and residue-free.
Stress, in all forms is one of the major causes of disruption to the normal balance of microflora in the gut, allowing proliferation of pathogens. Loss of appetite, picky eating, scouring, poor condition and changes in temperament are some of the less consequences. Stress is easily induced with some common causes being: changes in diet, heavy work or training, temperature extremes, breeding, transportation, worming, vaccinations and changes to environment. Use of PRON8URE in these circumstances protects horses from negative intestinal changes while improving digestive efficiency and general health.
Antibiotics are particularly harmful to gut microflora, leaving animals susceptible to re-infection. PRON8URE should always be administered following any course of antibiotics. The digestive system plays a vital role in the health, vigour and performance of horses. Its correct functioning is dependent on the level and balance of bacteria and yeasts called microflora. Microflora have the major role in breaking down indigestible nutrients, in the synthesis and absorption of vitamins and minerals, in stimulating the immune system and in preventing the proliferation of pathogens in the gut.
Foals are born with a sterile gut which is rapidly colonised by both beneficial and pathogenic bacteria. A fine balance exists which can easily be disrupted, leading to scouring, ill thrift and other problems. Feeding PRON8URE from birth protects the foal from pathogens, improves digestive efficiency, enables better utilisation of feed and makes the transition from milk to solid feed easier.
All horses benefit from ProN8ure's ability to stabilise intestinal microflora, maximise gut health and resist the effects of stress.
DOSAGE
Dose at stress levels for the first 5 days and then dose at maintenance levels. Stress level dose may need to be continued for longer if necessary.

- Healthy gut lining support
- Ulcers healing
- Elimination of ulcer formation in the stomach.
- HYDROLYSED COLLAGEN PEPTIDES
- GASTRIC CELLULAR SUPPORT
- ORGANIC TURMERIC
Turmeric in the research showed suppression of the formation of stomach ulcers
- SLIPPERY ELM BARK
Contains high amounts of mucilage that adheres to the gastrointestinal tract, soothing and coating injured and inflamed tissues, helping them to heal and reducing the likelihood of scarring, as well as drawing out toxins and irritants.
- GELATIN HYDROLYSATE
Gelatin’s short peptides – glyprolines – consist of amino acids of glycine and proline. They protect the stomach mucous tunic from injuries. Glyprolines are easily absorbed in the stomach and remain in the blood for a long time without breaking up. They act not only on the stomach cells but also on the central nervous system overcoming the blood-brain barrier, therefore they help prevent the ulcers caused by stress.
THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CEN ULCER PROTECT AND ULCER MEDICATION
Ulcer medications (e.g Ulcerguard) turn down/block acid production in the horse’s stomach (proton pump inhibitor). CEN Ulcer Protect does not inhibit the natural acid pump action. It helps protect and heal the stomach wall with high-quality ingredients without side effects.
Stomach acid is vital for protein digestion and absorption of key vitamins and minerals such as calcium and magnesium. The acid in the stomach is also important as a barrier against micro-organisms and parasites in the environment entering further down the digestive system.
Ulcers in horses can occur n the Foregut and Hindgut. Long term use of ulcer medication can be risky. Evidence from human research indicates that long term use of Omeprazole impacts calcium absorption, which has been linked to an increased risk of osteoporosis where bones become weak and there is the risk of fracture. Short term use would be a lower risk.
This has caused some nutritionists and researchers in equine nutrition to question the long term use of Omeprazole in horses. Dr. Juliet Getty – internationally respected independent equine nutritionist, believes that concerns are reasonable because what happens in a horse’s stomach is not that different from human digestion.
“What happens in humans is that these medications not only reduce protein digestion, but they also inhibit the absorption of key minerals and vitamins, such as magnesium, calcium, vitamin D, and vitamin B12” said Getty.

What are Hemp Hulls and Hearts?
Hemp hulls are the shell of the hemp heart/seed that remains after the seed has been extracted. During the de-hulling process a certain percent (approx. 20%) of the seed remains, resulting in this blended Hemp Hulls and Hearts product. They are an excellent source of fibre and amino acids, and provide the essential fatty acids omega 3 and 6.
Hemp in the human market is fast becoming established as a super food and has been used in food, tea and medicine in China for at least 3000 years.
Why feed Hemp Hulls and Hearts?
Hemp Hulls and Hearts are an excellent source of high quality protein (20%) which supports muscle function, nutrient absorption, and other important body functions.
It also contains a superior amino acid profile with 9 essential amino acids that horses require for protein production. These amino acids are not naturally made by the horse and are vital for a horse’s health especially in regards to the building, fueling and recovery of muscles during exercise.
Hemp Hulls and Hearts contains more than 20% oil, mostly in the form of the essential fatty acids Omega 3 and 6, also Omega 9. Omega 3’s have anti-inflammatory benefits which support joint and immune system function.
The hemp oil also provides a source of Gamma Linoleic Acid (GLA). GLA in humans has been linked to supporting hormonal imbalances in females along with improved brain function.
Hemp Hulls and Hearts is low in sugar and starch as well as containing useful levels of digestible fibre (almost 30%), favourable when feeding a high fibre, low sugar and starch diet. It can be fed to all classes of horses including those with grain intolerances or metabolic issues.

Restore Paste is a carefully formulated electrolyte supplement designed to match the composition of sweat.
When horses sweat they lose electrolytes, with the principal losses being chloride, sodium, potassium and magnesium. If these essential nutrients are not replenished, the consequences may include conditions such as dehydration, muscular weakness, overheating, fatigue, and poor performance. The composition of Restore Paste mimics that of horse sweat so it replaces what has been lost from sweat.
Restore Paste is an easy-to-administer buffered paste. Using the same proven mixture of ingredients found in Restore as a foundation, Restore Paste includes a buffering agent that supports gastrointestinal comfort in horses.
USES:
- For routine or strategic electrolyte replacement for all horses that sweat
- To supply potassium to hard-working horses
- Easy-to-administer oral paste
DIRECTIONS FOR USE:
Administer one tube (60g) after strenuous performance activity. One tube of Restore Paste provides an equivalent amount of electrolytes as 30g of Restore.
For best results, administer Restore Paste after competition, work or in any situation where the horse sweats. In addition to Restore Paste, all horses should have access to a salt block or additional loose salt.
SIZE: 60g (Twin Pack)

One of the early signs of stress is that the natural balance of flora in the animal becomes disturbed. The intestinal floras are as essential as the liver, kidneys or any other functional organ. The floras are important in the breakdown and subsequent absorption of nutrients to help insure that the body's protective immune system remains intact.
In addition to stress, chemical additives, worming remedies and antibiotics can seriously affect the composition of normal intestinal flora. ORALX REBOUND 3 is designed to help restore and maintain the desirable micro-organisms in the gut of the horse, not unlike a natural probiotic.
REBOUND 3 is an oral-dose paste containing an exclusive formulation of host-specific intestinal bacteria. The 30-gram syringe contains 3 full doses.
Available in a 34g tube (3 dose)
