Description
Equi-Ferm XL® is a microencapsulated (protected), pelleted pre- and probiotic supplement. It contains a strain of the live yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae that was specially selected through laboratory screening of hundreds of strains. This specific strain has been shown to positively influence the bacterial population in the hindgut of the horse. Promoting the growth of beneficial, fiber-digesting bacteria helps to increase the digestibility of the total diet, including forages. Equi-Ferm XL® also stabilizes hindgut pH. It does this by promoting the growth and activity of beneficial bacteria, even during times of stress or feeding diets higher in sugar & starch (NSC). Though already added to all Tribute® feeds, we recommend feeding your horse additional Equi-Ferm XL® during times of stress (including travel or competition), when hay quality is poor, when changing hay sources, following antibiotic treatment or when signs of hindgut upset are observed.
Benefits
- Microencapsulation of the live yeast allows it to reach the hindgut.
- Stabilizes hindgut pH by promoting the growth of beneficial bacteria.
- Improves the digestibility of the total diet by supporting growth of fiber-digesting bacteria.
