EKYGARD is a complementary feed that can be used continuously throughout the year for your horse, thus helping to prevent excessive stomach acidity. It can also be given occasionally. In this case, be sure to anticipate peaks of heartburn related to specific events: transport, competition, medication, etc. Administer EKYGARD 3 to 4 days before and at least 1 week after.
Focus on ingredients.
The pectin-lecithin complex is a scientifically proven ingredient to help protect your horse's stomach lining. How it works is simple: when it encounters acid in the stomach, it forms a gel that coats the inner gastric wall, either at the pylorus, the glandular or the squamous part. It therefore creates a barrier to protect your equine's digestive wall against acid.
Lithothamnion is a seaweed rich in calcium carbonate and magnesium which helps to reduce stomach acidity.
Alfalfa has a buffering effect on stomach acidity.
Aloe vera has a soothing effect if the stomach is sensitive.
Clay helps to protect the mucous membranes of the stomach.
