Supporting A Horse With Colitis
Before launching our new digestive supplement Pro-Yeast, some of our customers had the chance to trial it with their horses. Louise used Pro-Yeast with Will for a month and saw some great results.
Horse: Will
Age: 20 years old
Breed: Warmblood
Will has suffered from colitis for several years and has flare up’s occasionally which can last for a few days before getting better. Louise, his loaner, took part in a trial for our new digestive supplement Pro-Yeast.
Louise and Will enjoy hacking and schooling and Will is fed on Saracen Veteran Cubes. Will has suffered with digestive issues for a few years and as well as it not looking very nice, it can be quite uncomfortable for Will. Louise documented Will's digestive function throughout the Pro-Yeast trial and the pictures talk for themselves.
The photos from left to right show the improvement in Will's digestive function whilst on the Pro-Yeast trial.

We asked Louise whether she noticed any changes in Will’s digestive function during the feeding trial and she said:
“Yes, definitely. Will had a couple of bouts of colitis during the trial period and the Pro-Yeast definitely helped him to recover quicker and there was an improvement in his digestive function as his bottom was less watery.”
