FIBRE'S FIRST FOR FITNESS

Flbre-Beet from British Horse Feeds is the ideal support for horses suffering or recovering from gastric ulcers

Reports show up to 93per cent of racehorses have or have had gastric ulcers during their racing career.

Racehorses are extremely prone to gastric ulcers due to a combination of factors:

Intense Exercise: Strenuous workouts can lead to increased stomach acid production and pressure on the stomach, damaging the lining.

Stress: The stress of racing, travelling, and competition can disrupt the horse’s digestive system, making it more susceptible to ulcers.

Irregular Feeding: Irregular mealtimes can lead to prolonged periods of high stomach acidity.

High-Starch Diets: Many performance feeds are high in starch, which can contribute to hindgut issues and further exacerbate stomach problems.
