Scientific Research

EquiNectar, a scientifically developed supplement, is designed to enhance the nutritional health and gut microbiome of horses. This blog delves into the claims surrounding EquiNectar, providing evidence and explaining how it supports these vital aspects of equine health.

This study underpins a commitment to improving equine health through scientific innovation. The team is dedicated to continuing this journey, ensuring products such as the enzyme-rich malt extract are not just supplements, but key components in the holistic management of equine health.

This study provides evidence that the gut microbiota plays a role in the behaviour and performance of horses and suggests that manipulating the gut microbiota could be a potential strategy for improving horse welfare and performance.

Subsequent to this research being undertaken it has become apparent that not only does EquiNectar not contribute to hypersensitivity, its ability to aid digestion appears to have a calming effect on those horses who do suffer from hypersensitivity.

There are so many supplements available to horse owners that claim to support the hindgut microbiome. How effective are they? Let’s explore the main types of supplements used and what the scientific literature says.

“My horse has been on antibiotics and now has soft droppings and seems a bit bloated, do you think there is a connection?” To try to answer this, I have looked at the scientific literature to gain an understanding of the research surrounding antibiotics and their impact on the equine microbiome.
