The product acts as a gastric balm and is specially designed for horses with sensitive stomachs or those exposed to stressful situations such as training, competition, travel, or medication.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGastro contains a high level of lecithin which, together with polysaccharides, forms a protective barrier gel in the stomach. This gel helps to isolate the mucosa from the strong gastric acid and reduces the risk of irritation and damage. Horses produce gastric acid continuously, regardless of whether they are eating or not, which makes the gastric mucosa particularly vulnerable, especially during stress or irregular feeding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLecithin is a naturally occurring substance in the horse's stomach. When lecithin comes into contact with gastric acid, it breaks down into phospholipids, which are an important part of the cell membranes in the gastric mucosa. These phospholipids help protect and repair the stomach lining and are crucial for long-term gastric protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGastro also contains Maerl, a natural red algae that grows on the seabed. Maerl has a unique porous structure that makes nutrients easily accessible to the body. It helps to buffer gastric acid and stabilize the pH value in the stomach, both quickly and with long-lasting effect. This creates a more balanced stomach environment and promotes normal digestion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStomach problems and gastric ulcers are common in horses, especially in competition horses, but also affect leisure horses and foals. Damage to the gastric mucosa can negatively affect both the horse's well-being and performance. Gastro can be used both as daily support or as a course during periods of increased stress and is also recommended by Swedish veterinarians.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe product is pelleted, easy to feed, and has no competition withdrawal period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDosage:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e15 ml (10 g) per 100 kg body weight per day.\u003cbr\u003eDuring the first 10 days, a double dose is recommended, then switch to maintenance dose.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Trikem","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56210163270018,"sku":"1861300#OF","price":101.96,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0698\/0721\/0760\/files\/TrikemGastro3kg.jpg?v=1768566089","url":"https:\/\/www.svenskridsport.com\/en-be\/products\/trikem-gastro-3000g","provider":"Svensk Ridsport","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
