Acid Protect® neutralises and buffers excess stomach acid. In addition, the stomach lining is rebuilt and protected from renewed attacks. Performance horses often suffer from stomach ulcers. There can be various reasons for this, such as feeding breaks of over 6 hours, rations high in concentrates and low in roughage, stabling, stress or increased pressure in the stomach due to training. Horses often react to this with a change in appetite, a change in temperament or a dull coat, and in severe cases even colic.
The mineral compounds contained in Acid Protect®, such as magnesium oxide and dicalcium phosphate, have a high acid neutralisation potential. The psyllium contained in Acid Protect® promotes intestinal motility. During digestion, marshmallow releases a mucilaginous layer that adheres to the horse’s intestinal wall. Antioxidants generally promote regeneration processes and support the body’s defences. Acid Protect® is also suitable for foals.

Recommended waiting period at the time of production of this product
A system never works alone! So if it performs better after successfully helping with a problem, the related systems are also put under more strain. Only comprehensive support brings lasting success. The focus of the Nutrilabs product formulation is on physiological consistency. Each product is designed not only to address the core problem, but also to support all associated metabolic systems and organs. Since metabolic processes always affect several systems simultaneously, it is essential to consider all organs and processes involved. To achieve lasting effects, not only specific areas but also the associated systems must be supported. That is why the formulations of Nutrilabs products are designed as comprehensive complete formulas and the ingredients focus not only on the core problem but also on the related systems.
