EQ-Ulcer Clinical Trial
What are Gastric Ulcers?
Gastric Ulcers are, unfortunately, a common part of horse ownership; up to 90% of racehorses, 60% of show horses and approximately 50% of non-performance horses including foals, are affected by harmful gastric ulcers. Ulcers are due to the erosion of the gastric lining caused by prolonged exposure to the normal acid in the stomach. It is very rare for ulcers to heal without treatment.
Gastric ulcers are a cause of great discomfort for horses and can give rise to general poor health, often evidenced by biting, bucking, lethargic behaviour, and general difficulty in horse management.
How can EQ-Ulcer help?
EQ-Ulcer can be used as prophylactic, management, and treatment for even the most severe grade 4 ulceration.
EQ-Ulcer heals ulcers through increasing gastric mucosa production and improving digestion processes.

CASE THREE: APPLE
The last pony we scoped was a crossbreed rescue, Apple. He was stuck in a small paddock with no forage for a very long time. Apple was skin and bone. His coat was dull, and he was very unhappy to move off of the leg. His new owner helped him look and feel so much better…

Calypso was a horse that we received under our care, with the typical symptoms indicating a possible stomach issue. Calypso, a Thoroughbred Ex-Racehorse, became the ideal candidate for our trials. He was slow under saddle, and did not respond to requests for forward…
