GUT HEALTH AND ITS IMPACT:

Horses have a complex digestive system, relying on the caecum and large intestine to digest plant material. Gut microbes play a crucial role in this process and overall health, including providing calories and nutrients, supporting a strong immune system and influencing behavior.

HOW VERMATE BENEFITS YOUR HORSE:

Microbial Diversity and Health – Vermate provides all necessary microbial groups for optimal intestinal function, replenishing the gut’s microbial population daily. The humates in Vermate reduce cortisol production, help manage stress and heal inflammation, improving overall health and immune function.

Addressing Stress Factors While some stress factors can’t be eliminated for stabled horses, Vermate helps reduce pain, enhance immune function and mitigate the impact of restricted movement on gut health.

Vermate’s Role in Managing Tension, Concentration Problems and Anxiety Research shows that gut health and microbial diversity significantly affect horse behavior. Vermate helps balance hormones and maintain a healthy neurological system, reducing anxiety, improving concentration and preventing behavioral issues.

Description

Vermate is a natural liquid product formulated to improve intestinal micro flora. Vermate also contains micro-nutrients that are chelated with humic and fulvic acids to improve animal production. Vermate is 100% safe and cannot be overdosed. Induction period of 14 days should be allowed.

NOTE: Vermate is 100% competition legal and is a registered product.

VERMATE IS A COMPREHENSIVE SOLUTION

Vermate contains a full spectrum of microbial diversity, with most microbes in a sporulated form that withstands digestion in the stomach and small intestines. These microbes reach the caecum and large intestines, enabling proper fermentation and digestion while preventing inflammation and ulceration. The Humate component in Vermate helps maintain optimal pH levels and digestive function, significantly reducing the risk of ulcers and colic.

THE IMPORTANCE OF MICROBIAL DIVERSITY IN HORSES

The gut contains various microbes such as bacteria, fungi, archaea, yeasts, protozoa and viruses. This community, known as the intestinal microbiota, is responsible for:

– Breaking down food
– Producing vitamins
– Influencing gut and brain activity
– Stimulating the immune system
– Promoting fat storage
– Impacting nerve growth, bone density, hoof quality and pain perception
– Producing hormones that affect behavior

ULCERS AND COLIC AND THE CHALLENGE WITH COMMERCIAL PROBIOTICS

Most commercial probiotics for horses contain lactic acid bacteria intended to stabilize gut pH. However, these bacteria often get destroyed by stomach acid and don’t reach the intestines, making them ineffective for preventing or treating ulcers and colic. A healthy digestive tract requires a diverse array of microbes, which needs to be replenished daily.
