Gastrix 946 ml HORSE MASTER — Support for the horse's gastric mucosa

Gastrix Horse Master: a nutritional solution to protect the horse's gastric mucosa

Gastrix Horse Master is a liquid nutritional supplement specially formulated to support the horse's gastric mucosa during situations that may weaken digestive balance. It supports horses subject to dietary, sporting or environmental stresses that promote gastric irritation.

In horses, gastric acid production is continuous. When the stomach remains empty for too long or when physical activity is intense, this acidity can damage the digestive mucosa. The use of a suitable nutritional support therefore helps preserve digestive comfort.

Gastrix is particularly recommended for horses that are:

• athletic
• stressed
• transported regularly
• undergoing a change of environment
• receiving a significant concentrated ration

Why is supporting the horse's gastric mucosa essential?

The horse's gastric mucosa forms a protective barrier against the stomach's natural acidity. When this protection decreases, digestive discomfort can gradually appear.

A fragile digestive balance in horses

Horses have a small stomach with permanent acid secretion. This physiological feature explains the frequency of gastric sensitivities, particularly in horses:

• in training
• living in stalls
• receiving rations rich in concentrates
• subject to stress

In these situations, supporting the gastric mucosa helps preserve digestive comfort and performance.

A liquid formula suited to sensitive periods

Gastrix's liquid presentation makes daily administration easier and allows rapid action at the digestive level. This format is particularly suited to high-risk periods.

A useful solution for prevention and support

Gastrix can be used:

• during intensive training periods
• in preparation for competitions
• during frequent transport
• when changing the ration
• during periods of stress

Its regular use helps maintain good gastric tolerance in horses.

How does Gastrix act on the horse's gastric mucosa?

Gastrix acts by supporting the natural protective mechanisms of the horse's gastric mucosa thanks to a combination of ingredients selected for their digestive properties.

Its action contributes in particular to:

• protecting the gastric wall
• maintaining digestive balance
• limiting irritation linked to acidity
• promoting feeding comfort

This action is particularly beneficial for horses that are sensitive or exposed to digestive risk factors.

Which horses can benefit from Gastrix?

Certain equine profiles show a more pronounced gastric sensitivity than others.

Sport horses

Intensive training increases intra-abdominal pressure and promotes acid splashing in the stomach. Gastrix supports these periods of digestive strain.

Stressed horses or those transported regularly

Stress directly influences digestive balance. Frequent transport or changes of environment can weaken the gastric mucosa.

Horses receiving a significant concentrated ration

A diet rich in cereals can promote gastric acidity. A suitable nutritional support helps limit these effects.

946 ml format: a solution suited to equine digestive courses

The 946 ml format is particularly suited to regular digestive courses or sensitive periods requiring supplementation over several weeks.

This packaging allows:

• simple administration
• easy adaptation of the course duration
• practical use in the stable

It fits easily into the horse's daily feeding routine.
