Fibregest is a Super Soluble Fibre Feed derived from a blend of alfalfa sugar beet and oat soluble fibres mixed with seaweed meal chelated minerals and Oatinol. Overview – In the Foregut In the foregut the normal passage of feed from the mouth to hindgut takes 2 hours. Fibregest pellets provide a palatable source of digestible super fibres (soluble fibres) that gel with water in the gut to create a texture which maintains a slow transit time of the feed and a slow release of energy into the blood. In the small intestine a steadier release of energy stops hyper-activity while a slower passage of feed allows enzymes more time to digest feed. Overview – In the Hindgut In the hindgut the normal passage of feed from the caecum to anus takes 2/3 days. Digestion in the hindgut is a slow fermentative process carried out by friendly bacteria. As feed is present in the hindgut for several days it is vitally important to maintain a healthy environment to prevent digestive upsets. Fibregest acts as the perfect food source for these beneficial bacteria encouraging their natural activity and growth. In combination with a high quality feed balancer such as Equilibraÿ 500 the support from Fibregest will provide a sustained high level of fibre digestion for the benefit of your horse or pony. In addition the added Oatinol in Fibregest provides natural antioxidants emulsifiers and membrane fats to help maintain the lining of both the foregut and hindgut digestive tracts. Fibregest Contains High levels of Oatinol to provide beneficial antioxidants membrane fats emulsifiers and beta glucans.
