UltraCruz® Equine Probiotic Supplement for Horses
- Diverse range of beneficial microorganisms
- Highly concentrated CFU (Colony Forming Units)
- Prebiotics for additional microflora support
- For use in horses and weaned foals
- Now in an easy-to-use pellet form
Each horse has a unique intestinal microflora, and as such, will have unique needs for different probiotic species. It is difficult to determine which microbial species are most needed for each horse, therefore, UltraCruz® Equine Probiotic Supplement for Horses is formulated to contain a highly concentrated, comprehensive collection of key Probiotics and Prebiotics to help maintain digestive health in horses and weaned foals. This probiotic supplement contains some of the highest levels available on the equine market of 6 different microbial strains: Enterococcus faecium, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus casei, Lactobacillus plantarum, and Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
UltraCruz® Equine Probiotic Supplement for Horses may be especially beneficial to help maintain digestive health during stressful events or changes in diet. An imbalance of intestinal flora can impact weight gain or loss. Some microbial strains have been shown to improve weight loss while others benefit weight gain; however, the proper balance for one horse may not be the same as the next. UltraCruz® Equine Probiotic Supplement for Horses was formulated to contain a diverse range of proven microbial strains to help ensure that your horse's needs are met. Provided in easy-to-use pellet or powder forms.
Prebiotics are sources of non-digestible, soluble fiber that serve as food for Probiotics, also known as the "good bugs", to help increase the number of beneficial bacteria present in the large intestine.
For additional gastrointestinal support we suggest UltraCruz® Equine Bio-Absorb Supplement for Horses.
