Assure® Guard

Assure^® Guard is an equine ulcer supplement. Assure^® Guard for horses soothes the digestive system to help relieve colonic and gastric ulcers, colic, loose stool, weight loss and more. Using Assure^® Guard daily helps prevent recurring ulcers to keep your horse feeling healthy, comfortable and relaxed.

Assure^® Guard supports the entire digestive tract from the stomach through the hindgut where additional gastric conditioning is required. This gut health horse ulcer supplement contains a unique blend of equine pre and probiotics, psyllium, gastric buffer, digestive enzymes, yeast and calcium carbonate to soothe and restore balance to the digestive tract. Traditional ulcer treatments can stop acid production within the stomach. This allows more undigested feedstuffs to reach the hindgut and cause or contribute to the digestive disturbance including colonic ulcers. Adding an equine ulcer supplement like Assure^® Guard can help ensure your horse's digestive tract is constantly replenished with live microbes to maintain optimal function.

Assure^® Guard contains antacids, enzymes, and probiotics to support the stomach, small intestines, and colon while psyllium adds extra stabilization of the hindgut. Assure^® Guard horse features Gastrointestinal Stabilizing Technology (GST) to ensure that live microbes are protected from the acidic environment of the stomach for safe delivery to the hindgut. The high quality, high purity psyllium in Assure^® Guard has been shown to naturally and effectively increase the production of butyrate. Butyrate, also known as butyric acid, is produced in the hindgut of all horses and is critical to colonocyte health and regeneration, and important in the prevention and reduction of gastrointestinal inflammation.
