Live Yeast Live Yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae MUCL39885 (Vistacell)
The live yeast Saccharomyces cerevisia used in Maximum Gut-Health works as a probiotic, and is a source of live, naturally occurring micro-organisms. Live yeast can have a beneficial impact on the bacterial population that live within the hindgut that aid digestion and support the immune system.
Feeding a live yeast helps to improve the digestibility of a horse’s diet by supporting the fermentation process, which converts fibre from the diet into an available energy source. Live yeast has been shown to increase the pH in the hindgut, and in doing so it can reduce detrimental concentrations of lactic acid. This effect is even more significant in performance horses, who tend to require higher levels of starch and concentrate feeds.
Metabolites produced by Live Yeast like Saccharomyces cerevisia in Maximum Gut Health has been shown to support the wellbeing of the immune system and the immune cells, which affect and regulate inflammatory responses in horses. This combined effect has also been shown to provide a stress-mitigating response in young animals.
Calcareous Marine Algae
Maximum Gut-Health has been formulated with a unique blend of natural sustainable plant based Calcareous Marine Algae, a highly efficient buffer that has a honeycomb structure that breaks down slowly helping to support and stabilise the pH and reducing the risk of acidosis and stomach ulceration. Working with the live yeast in Maximum Gut-Health Plus the Calcareous Marine Algae supports and aids feed digestibility, coat, and skin condition, helps strengthen hoofs, provides bioavailable magnesium, and calcium that is essential in stressful situations and can aid the regulation of acid in the fore and hind gut.
Maximum Gut-Health has a highly palatable vanilla flavour and can be fed alongside our unique and scientifically proven and researched range of advanced equine health support supplements.
