Which Horses Benefit?
  • All horses to improve salivation and chewing efficiency that helps maintain a normal pH balance of gastric acid.
  • Provides a physical lining to the stomach walls that helps horses to maintain appetite and normal digestive function.
  • Before travelling and during the journey on long-distance trips.
  • Horses training and competing in racing and equestrian sports to support stomach health and optimum gastric function.
  • Can be used long term without negative effects in horses, such as those competing or racing regularly.
Major Ingredients

Gastro-Coat contains natural compounds which are present in the diet of horses, but are destroyed by heat processing commonly used to make commercial prepared feed mixes.  These natural compounds may be low or inadequate in the modern diet of horses in training, racing or competition. 

  • Natural mucilage compounds and phospholipids
  • Synergistic ingredients including yeast extracts
  • Does not contain soy, wheat products or fillers

Sticky powder with a palatable vanilla milk flavour

Supplementation Guidelines

Each level scoopful of Gastro-Coat provides 40 grams. 

In the Feed: 80 grams of Gastro-Coat can be mixed into the regular feed to help improve appetite and support the health of the gastro-intestinal system. 

In a Small Feed (most popular): Give 80 grams of Gastro-Coat in a small feed of preferably lucerne chaff 30 minutes before training, travelling or competition to help horses maintain normal stomach function during the trip. 

As an oil paste: Gastro-Coat can be given as an oil paste 5 -10 minutes before training or travelling for fussy horses or those reluctant to eat before or after working. Make the paste with 80 grams of Gastro-Coat and roughly 80 mls of vegetable or canola oil.  It is recommended to paste Gastro-Coat with oil rather than water as the compounds in Gastro-Coat become activated with water (as similar to saliva) and become sticky in the oral syringe.
