The perfect non
soak conditioning feed for
sustaining all horses and ponies in
maintenance or light work.
Fibregest is a
“super soluble fibre feed”, derived
from a blend of micronized (sugar)
beet pulp, hemp seed and lean black
oats; fortified with seaweed meal,
chelated minerals and Oatinol®.
Key Benefits:
-
Manufactured as a very
palatable 3mm pellet.
-
Maintains the slow rate
of passage of feed through the foregut.
-
Aids the digestion of
oils, starch, proteins, calcium and
phosphorus as well as vitamins: A, D, E
and K.
-
Provides the perfect
substrate of ground digestible fibres
for maintaining high levels of hindgut
microbial fermentative digestion.
-
Supplies the end
products of microbial digestion that
provide conditioning and energy reserves
for light work.
-
Particularly good for
older horses and ponies with poor teeth.
-
Contains the Oatinol
Delivery System to maintain a healthy
digestive tract and a high rate of
absorption of essential nutricines,
vitamins and trace elements.
-
Recommended as part of
the GWF Nutrition
Equine Feeding Guide.
In the foregut of horses
and ponies, the normal passage of feed from
the mouth to hindgut takes 2 hours.
Fibregest pellets provide a palatable source
of digestible “super fibres” (soluble
fibres) that gel with water in the gut to
create a texture which maintains a slow
transit time of the feed and a slow release
of energy into the blood. In the small
intestine, a steadier release of energy
stops hyper-activity.
In the hindgut, the normal passage of feed
from the caecum to anus takes 2/3 days.
Digestion in the hindgut is a slow,
fermentative process carried out by friendly
bacteria. As feed is present in the hindgut
for several days, it is vitally important to
maintain a healthy environment to prevent
digestive upsets. Fibregest acts as the
perfect food source for these beneficial
bacteria, encouraging their natural activity
and growth.
In combination with a high quality feed
balancer, such as Equilibra® 500 + Omega 3,
the support from Fibregest will provide a
sustained high level of fibre digestion for
the benefit of your horse or pony.
Contains the
Oatinol®
Delivery System
For all the nutritional
elements of Fibregest to be utilised, they
have to be absorbed from the horses’
digestive tract. Oatinol supplies the
following active ingredients to maintain gut cell
integrity, maintain the lining of the gut,
support the immune system and aid the
absorption of active ingredients, vitamins and trace
elements.
Active Ingredient
|
Why We Use It
|
Oatinol - Galactolipid Natural Emulsifiers
|
Galactolipids are a combination of sugar and fat molecules that help
establish the perfect medium for enzyme activity in the gut to absorb feed components.
|
Oatinol - Natural
Tocotrienol Antioxidants
|
Tocotrienol antioxidants are found naturally in oat bran. This
tocotrienol form of vitamin E is 40 to 60 times more readily recycled in
membrane systems and supports tissue integrity.
|
Oatinol - Oat Derived
Beta Glucans
|
Beta glucans provide nourishment for beneficial fibre degrading
microbes and helps maintain a high level of natural immunity.
|
Oatinol - Polar Lipids
|
Polar lipids are found in high concentrations in cell membranes and
are essential for tissue integrity and the controlled passage of
materials into and out of cells.
|
1. Simply mix with
the horses’ normal feed.
2. Feed according to workload.
