Product Details

Grass flush? Loose droppings? GutBitters has you covered. This synergistic blend of organic bitter herbs helps manage hindgut health and digestion during seasonal grass changes, offering natural support when your horse needs it most.


Why Choose GutBitters?

  • Bitter Herb Expertise: Bitter herbs stimulate the taste buds which produces more saliva, which helps buffer stomach acidity.
  • Increases Digestive Enzymes: Bitter herbs can increase the production of digestive enzymes, which help break down starches and proteins, helping with food absorption.
  • Supports Circulation: Bitter herbs help stimulate blood flow in the gut, reducing bloating and supporting liver detoxification.

Overview

It's that time again - the grass flushes and our horses get cow-splatty loose droppings, especially common when our horses are switching from a winter on stemmy, fibre-rich hay to an abundance of fresh, juicy, green grass-shoots.

The reason? The sudden high percentage of water in those fresh new neon-green grass blades - up to 60% higher water content than the winter hay our horses have been eating, and with zero cellulose fibre going through the hindgut, causing disruption in the gut flora.

It's simple enough to reverse by restricting access to the green stuff and keeping an adlib hay supply on tap. But what we can also do is feed 'bitter' herbs.

See our Blog The Bitter Reflex for how bitter herbs can really help your horse at this time of year.
