Buffer, Protect, Feed, Defend, Heal, Strenghthen, Balancing, Soothe

Gut Health Plus Paste supports normal gut health in 8 ways:

Buffer:
- Modern feeding practices result in reduced natural buffering of a horse’s stomach.
- The resulting low pH environment increases the risk of gastric ulcers.
- Gut Health Plus combines the buffering power of calcium carbonate (limestone), calcareous marine algae, and magnesium hydroxide.
- These ingredients work together to keep fluids in the stomach at a more natural pH, helping maintain a healthy stomach.
- Slippery Elm is included, providing a soothing effect on the digestive system.
Protect:
- A healthy stomach is capable of protecting itself from the gastric acid it produces.
- However, modern management and nutrient imbalances can compromise this ability.
- Gut Health Plus harnesses the uniquely sticky nature of a seaweed extract from Laminarea hyperborea and the amino acid threonine.
- These components enhance a horse’s natural protection mechanisms, assisting in maintaining a healthy stomach.
- Proline and Serine contribute to the normal production of mucus, coating the entire GI tract.
Feed:
- A healthy gut relies on good bacteria and robust intestinal cells.
- These cells, some of the fastest-growing in the body, need the right nutrients to stay healthy.
- Gut Health Plus combines a fructooligosaccharide prebiotic with the amino acid glutamine.
- This combination supports normal gut health and function by providing essential nutrients.
Defend:
- A healthy population of gut bacteria with the right balance of ‘good’ versus ‘bad’ microflora is essential for overall horse health.
- Gut Health Plus helps maintain this balance, ensuring a healthy and functional gut microbiome.
- The carefully selected ingredients contribute to the defense against imbalances in gut microflora.
Heal:
- Ingredients like Threonine play a role in tissue repair and wound healing.
- This can be beneficial for addressing damage or inflammation in the gastrointestinal tract.
- Gut Health Plus supports the healing process, aiding in the repair of damaged tissues within the digestive system.
Strengthen:
- Calcium Carbonate and Calcareous Marine Algae contribute to overall gut strength and integrity.
- These ingredients help fortify the structural components of the digestive system, promoting a resilient gut.
Balancing:
- Maintains a balanced microbial environment in the gut.
- Promotes digestive harmony by ensuring a well-regulated and diverse community of microorganisms.
Soothe:
- Provides soothing effects on the digestive tract, alleviating discomfort.
- Ingredients like Slippery Elm contribute to a calming influence on the gastrointestinal lining, promoting overall digestive well-being.

Sodium Alginate:
Gastrointestinal Protection: Forms a protective barrier along the digestive tract, aiding in the prevention of irritation.
Increased Mucin Production: Stimulates mucin production, enhancing the mucous layer's protective function.
Anti-Inflammatory Potential: May possess anti-inflammatory properties, contributing to a healthier digestive environment.

Glutamine:
Amino Acid Role: Supports protein synthesis and mucin production, crucial for maintaining gut health.
Healing Properties: Plays a role in tissue repair and wound healing in the gastrointestinal tract.

Threonine:
Essential Amino Acid: Crucial for protein synthesis and mucin production, supporting overall gut health.
Healing Properties: Supports tissue repair and wound healing in the gastrointestinal tract.

Proline:
Non-Essential Amino Acid: Involved in collagen production for structural support in the gut, aiding in gut integrity.
Wound Healing: Plays a role in the healing process and repair of damaged tissues in the digestive system.

Serine:
Non-Essential Amino Acid: Contributes to mucin production and cellular functions in the gastrointestinal tract, supporting gut health.
Cellular Function: Supports the structural integrity of cells in the digestive system.

Slippery Elm:
Mucilage Content: Provides a soothing effect on the digestive tract lining, promoting comfort.
