Description  
Gastro Shield EQ™ is a comprehensive nutrient formula that provides Ultimate Digestive Conditioning for Horses. The hydrophobic and hydrophilic Phospholipids in Gastro Shield EQ™ strengthen the Squamous Mucosa in the Fundic Region of the Stomach by interacting with the Cell Membrane of the Mucosal Epithelium. This interaction between the Phospholipids in Gastro Shield EQ™ and the Squamous Mucosa at the cellular membrane level strengthens the stomach lining, which increases its resistance to damage from Gastric Acid. This can help prevent stomach ulcers. 
​
The Essential Amino Acids, Enzymes, Fruit Pectin, and Fruit Herbs in Gastro Shield EQ™ support the normal production of Mucus. In horses, mucus coats the entire Gastro-Intestinal (GI) Tract. This protects the GI lining from damage by Gastric/ Digestive Acid. Mucus also helps the Horse's Immune System by supplying Nitrogen to the Immune Cells of the Intestinal Mucosa. 
​
The Polysaccharides in Gastro Shield EQ™ act as a Prebiotic and Probiotic, supporting your Horse's Intestinal Health by altering the Bacterial Microflora of the Gut Microbiome. This occurs through the selective growth of Commensal Bacteria (beneficial) and inhibiting growth of Pathogenic Bacteria (harmful). The Billions of Live Beneficial Bactria in Gastro Shield EQ™  form a Natural Microflora Management Tool, which can help your Horse to digest food more efficiently, enhance the absorption of minerals and vitamins, and help regulate weight. Also, Gastro Shield EQ™  contains Saccharomyces cerevisiae, a Multistrain enzyme that synergistically improves digestion. 
​
Gastro Shield EQ™ contains a Marine Algae-Based Buffer, which balances the pH in the Hindgut, shielding it from Acidosis. As well as supporting the Health of the Entire GI Tract, Gastro Shield EQ™  can also help with:
Strong Hooves
Healthy Skin, Deeper Color, and Shiny Coat
Decrease Anxiety and Flightiness 
Increase Calmness and Tractability 
​
Gastro Shield EQ™ is professionally formulated by an experienced Equine Nutritionist for New Zealand Stock, performing under New Zealand conditions.​
