About the ingredients: Turmeric – Curcuma xanthorhizza is a unique form of turmeric that research has shown can suppress the formation of stomach ulcers when administered to horses. PowerStance (powdered coconut oil)- can help with the absorption of the Curcuma xanthorhizza, while the lauric acid has antibacterial properties. Calcium from seaweed – comes from the ocean off the coast of Iceland and is harvested for the red algae (Lithothamnion). Lithotamn has a honeycomb structure that provides a large surface area (>10m2) per gram and a slow release of bioavailable minerals, calcium, magnesium and silicon. It has a longer buffering effect than limestone or sodium bicarbonate. Research has shown that this had a significant buffering effect for 4-6 hours under simulated in vitro conditions of gastric digestion and it also stimulated in vitro fermentation activities in the hindgut. Actigen – is a strain of yeast that contains Mannan Oligosaccharides (MOS). MOS are considered prebiotics and are said to promote the growth of healthy gut bacteria. Actigation is said to reduce the number of disease-causing bacteria in the gut. They can also boost immune function in the digestive tract. Yea-SaccTS – is a probiotic (live microorganism) that interacts symbiotically with Actigen (a prebiotic) and helps to promote beneficial bacteria and fiber digestion in the gut and stabilize the pH level of the gut. Sodium alginate can help maintain the integrity of the mucous membrane in the digestive tract. UlcaBuf can be fed alongside medication such as gastroguard without the effect diminishing.
