Beyond Picky Eater
No clue if this is helping my horses gut yet because he seems about the same but also just started it this month. I’m just so dumbfounded he’s actually eating it and likes it!!!
I’ve used smartpaks for years and had to stop using the smartpak I used for ulcers/gut because my horse is beyond a picky eater and refuses or wastes anything he doesn’t like and powders were the worst! Pellets I could occasionally get away with but most of the time I’d have to force feed anything that was essential or it wasn’t happening no matter what I did!!
I didn’t see much improvement with the gut supplement my horse has been on for a year even though he likes the taste. I thought I’d try the cheapest one even if it’s a powder because I didn’t have a ton to lose and I was SHOCKED my horse not only ate it but really liked it!!!
I haven’t noticed anything negative so I’m saying anything helps but too soon to tell anything but taste!!

Great hindgut support!
I started my sensitive OTTB on SmartDigest Ultra Powder after he was struggling with gas colic issues. In addition to going forage based, I was looking for a pre and probiotic that would help promote a healthy digestive function and aide in fiber digestion. It was an added bonus that the SmartDigest Ultra Powder was part of the ColiCare program! My horse ate the added powder with no issues, so I was happy to see that it was picky eater approved! Once my horse became eligible, I immediately took advantage of the ColiCare benefit, and submitted his application. It is nice to know that I am supporting a balanced hindgut, while receiving the extra ColiCare benefit for peace of mind!

Did not work. Bought for my old horse for leaky gut syndrome. Tried it twice and both times made things worse after 4 days of use.

More palatable - will try it for a month
The smell of the pellets discouraged consumption, so I called and it was suggested to try the powder instead

Great product and my horse loves it!
It’s a peace of my mind to give this product to my boy with highest chance to avoid colic or any digestion problems. Plus, my boy loves it.

Excellent Results w/ Multiple Horses
A true power product! I've fed the SmartDigest Ultra Powder to several horses in my barn and seen great results. The two most notable: a rescue and a senior OTTB (now 26 years old). This supplement helped the rescue mare's GI tract regain its health and helped her safely gain weight. This supplement also seemed to be the missing link for my senior OTTB's weight gain struggles! After years of trying different weight gain supplements, pre/probiotic supplements, and GI/ulcer support regiments with little to no true "gains" beyond a healthy but slim physique, I decided to try this one. It's truly the magic recipe for him! Even throughout a year of senior citizen health trials and the harshest winter I've ever had him through, he has held his best weight ever and has shown no signs of gastrointestinal distress during it all!
