This episode dives into the research that has been conducted around saliva production and gastric buffer capacity in horses. It outlines how feeding time impacts your horse’s gastric health and highlights a new ingredient, seaweed derived calcium, that is showing promise not only as a gastric buffer, but also in bone formation, bone density, and can even impact a horse’s startle response. Show Notes: · Equilene Pro Care® Beet Pulp based, high fiber feed that contains seaweed derived calcium as a gastric buffer.
