More about this product

Cavalor Gastro Aid creates a healthy environment in the stomach by neutralising gastric acid and protecting the stomach wall. A horse's stomach produces acid continuously, making it very susceptible to developing wounds or sores. The herbs in Cavalor Gastro Aid help to protect the stomach wall against excess acid. They provide extra support for the stomach by stimulating saliva production and promoting the healing of ulcers.

Cavalor Gastro Aid contains herbs and yeast cultures that protect the stomach wall and help to neutralise stomach acid, keeping it from attacking the stomach wall. Cavalor Gastro Aid also speeds up the healing process when damage to the stomach wall has already occurred.

Once the horse has recovered and is eating better, you can switch from the paste to the powder or liquid version. The liquid and powder versions can also be used as daily preventive measures for horses prone to stomach ulcers. Unlike omeprazole, it does not shut down stomach acid production, but works to protect the stomach from acid damage.

Recommended use of Gastro Aid: Mix 30 g into feed daily for at least 4–6 weeks. 1 measuring scoop = 10 g.

Maximum 100 g per day

Did you know?

A horse's stomach is constantly producing acid. When the stomach is empty, this acid will irritate the stomach wall, causing sores or ulcers. There are several ways to protect the stomach from the effects of excess acid.

Ideally, the horse should have hay available ad libitum, as the fibre in hay creates a protective fibrous coating in the stomach which absorbs acid and prevents it from attacking the stomach lining.

In addition, the horse's feed should be low in sugar and starch. Sugar and starch increase acid production.

Feed management is essential to preventing stomach ulcers, but once ulcers are diagnosed, they are more likely to recur. It is therefore recommended that horses prone to stomach ulcers receive daily support.

The ultimate cool-down
I’ve recently been treating my pony with Cavalor Muscle Cooler following intensive training. There’s no doubt that his muscles are less stiff than they used to be after a hard training session. Hot tendons and muscles return to normal body temperature much faster after using the Muscle Cooler.

The results are incredible!
I was looking for a feed for my 17-year-old mare who needs a low-sugar diet, as she is unable to metabolise the high sugar content of other horse feeds. That’s how I came upon Cavalor Fiberforce. My horse loves this mix and hasn’t had any excess muscle acidity since I started feeding it!

It’s a great feed
Cavalor Tradition Apple really is a brilliant feed! My pony is always good and waits until I give her some. She is generally greedy and she especially likes the apple pieces. The feed has improved her appearance and her coat has a wonderful shine.

The long mane is back
My horse was really itchy and had rubbed away most of his mane. Since I’ve been using Cavalor SwItch - you can see the beautiful, long mane for yourselves. A fantastic product!

My shining star
My horse Skipje is now getting the Western Mix from Cavalor and he’s doing really well on it. He looks much fitter and healthier. It’s a very promising start. With Cavalor Star Shine, I can get him shining like a star even after an afternoon in the field! And Cavalor Dry Feet stops him from getting thrush if he does stand in the mud!

The best a horse can get.
My horse often suffers from thrush in the winter months. I bought Cavalor Dry Feet on recommendation and I could see a result after just one day. It works really well. Highly recommended! Cavalor Dry Feet is highly recommended if your horse often has soggy hooves!
