Description
Ideal for where the internal surface of the stomach has been eroded – very high levels of β-glucans form a gel and coat the stomach lining with a protective film. Stomach contents are less likely to splash the upper squamous epithelium in the stomach. The β-glucans slow the rate of passage of feed through the stomach and intestines and bind to sugars, slowing absorption and lowering the glycaemic index of the feed. Also contains 1% of a marine derived ingredient with established buffering properties. This calcium and magnesium rich substance has been scientifically proven to reduce environmental acidity in the equine stomach (in vitro) for up to 6 hours.
UlsaKind Cubes are designed to be added to a TopSpec Feed Balancer, or supplement, and therefore contain no added vitamins or trace elements. They are however, enriched with calcium, sodium and magnesium. The calcium and magnesium sources have a mild, short-term, buffering effect against stomach acid.
