Didn't make any difference in my horse
Used this for 2 months and noticed no difference in prevention of ulcer symptoms returning. Will stick to ranitidine.

Horse loves the taste!
My nervous nellie 24 y.o. QH gelding has been on G.U.T. for about 3 months. Vet suspected ulcers when he had two bouts of mild colic after what he (the horse) considered stressful events (like I said, a nervous nellie). Started him on G.U.T. based on discussion with vet, listing of active ingredients in the product and user reviews. I try to keep his environment low-key (he's out 24/7 with a run in shed next to his best girlfriend and has several ponies and miniature horses to harass over the fence line when he feels he needs to strut his stuff). So far - fingers crossed! - no further colic episodes.

Best Ulcer Supplement EVER
This is the ONLY supplement I use for ulcers or suspected ulcer because it is the only one that WORKS and is also cost effective. For mild cases, I used only G.U.T. and the ulcers always seem to heal. For bad cases I use the G.U.T. after 30-60 days of UlcerGard. This is the best ulcer supplement ever. Recently I got a paint horse with a sour attitude that was a picky eater. 2 weeks of G.U.T. and he now eats anything and is the funniest, goofiest, most fun horse I've ever known. G.U.T. saved his belly AND his brain!!!!

Love this product
Rescued a paint gelding that was about 200 lbs under weight, had ulcers and infested with worms. Once the worm problem was taken care of he gained maybe 100 lbs back but I couldn't keep any weight on him no matter how much he was fed- Grained morning and night with various weight boosters, grass for atleast 10 hours a day, free choice hay in the pasture and in his stall ( about 1/2 bale put into a hay rack every evening) most of the time he wouldn't even touch his hay and barely ate his grain- probably has a small stomach from being starved so long. Anyways after figuring out he more than likely had Ulcers, I just bought GUT to try it on him... WOW what a difference, complete difference horse from the night I started him on it to the next morning. He didn't act as if he was in much pain, after a few he started gaining weight and keeping weight on. Now he is happy and healthy. I tried switching to other digestive products and they don't work at all compared to this stuff. My horses don't even hesitate to eat it, just top dress it on their grain and everything is GONE! Would highly recommend it to anyone! Best part about it, its made/manufactured right here in the USA right here in my state too!

Complete 180
I suspected hind gut ulcers after much research and decided to try GUT to help. WOW!!! Complete 180 from my mare!! She's willing under saddle, friendly, and looks great too! It smells like marshmallows, she eats it right up! I do mix with some CocoSoya to help keep the powder on her food. I would recommend this to ANYONE who thought their horse might have ulcers.

Awesome Product!
I have had my horse on the product since I bought him 5 years ago. He had trouble gaining weight due to an ulcer. He hasn't had any gastric problems since I've him on it. It is very reasonably priced. An absolutely great value. You really get your money's worth from this product. And my horse, who is a very picky eater has never been unwilling to eat this product.

FIRST
to the people who say this tastes like marshmellow, read the ingredients. the first one is marshmello roots -.- my horse gets chronic ulcers, so after treating him with omneprozeole i wanted to put him on something permanent. he is a super picky eater, but he gobbles this up. hours after i give it to him, he will always return to his bucket to lick it up. i have been using it for a month and the ulcers havent returned ( like before i started using this) i tasted it and it does taste like marshemllows. btw for those of you who are dealing with ulcers here are some of my suggestjions:
i give this to him wtih 4 handfulls of safe choice (horses love it) and a handful of beet pulp. beet pulp is good because of the calcium. also give them as much straight alfalfa as possible, once again because of the calcium.
Definaley buy this product, im going to order 4 more so i never run out!!! (the container lasts a long time, and iv been giving slightly over a scoop)

Loved G.U.T!
I had no issues with this product! My horse wolfed down his grain as usual. We have used have a lot of problems with cinchy-ness and general crankiness after I rode for extended amounts of time. Both of these issues cleared up in about two months of continued use of GUT. His coat is even shinier than ever. I would strongly recommend!

Great Supplement!
I've added this supplement to two of my horses' feed (twice daily) during and after a 3-month ulcer treatment and it does a fantastic job of continuing healing, controlling stomach acid during stressful workouts/events, and addressing hind gut health. It is also has microbials, allowing me to discontinue a separate probiotic. For all that it addresses, it's a great value, and my horses enjoy the taste of both the pellets and the powder.

Great stuff, evntually
I really like this product. It did take some getting used to for my mare. She didn't want to eat her food for a day or so, but after mixing it in at each feeding she got used to the smell and eats it happily. I used this product after she had been treated for ulcers for a month and then after the weaning off period. I wanted a little something to keep her belly happy, but not include antacid. So far so good!

Looks forward to eating it!
This only came in a powder, so I was a little apprehensive at first. After one week of handfeeding it to my horse, he now laps his bucket clean. Loves the stuff. It smells like marshmallows. He was formerly treated for ulcers, and I wanted an affordable product with no antacids. I have had excellant success with this. He is happy, accepting my leg, and moving forward. His coat is shiny and he's holding his weight perfectly. Mouth quiet and working in bridle. What more can I say? He's always gonna have this in his SmartPak!

Huge Difference!
At first my gelding didn't want to eat it but after only giving him the choice to eat the powder with the grain, he devoured it. Noticed a huge difference in him from time I got him to current time. More calm, digests food well and doesn't act like he is in pain. For the people whom cant get their horse to eat it, leave it out over night for them. I'd only give them the option of eating their grain with the powder mixed into it or just plain don't eat your grain for the next few days. I've tried U-guard powder and liquid, never noticed a difference in any of my horses. Also have tried cheapest stuff on market, this is the only one that seams too ease my horses.

Horse won't eat it...
I'm giving it a three because the ingredients indicate a good product, but it's useless when the horse won't eat it.

Have used better products
I use this product for my 4 year old and 13 year old OTTBs. While they do eat it well, I've found better results with U-gard.

GREAT supplement
I have to say i was a bit skeptical at first but after reading the reviews and seeing the price i decided to try this. My OTTB was girthy, and pinning his ears when i put my leg on but now all of that is gone! He has gained weight and has absolutely no ulcer type symptoms at all! Overall a much happier horse. He eats this without a problem as well.

Refused!
Tried, key word "tried", this on my OTTB. He would not even consider eating anything with this product on it. Two others denied it as well. None of these horses are picky eaters at all. I'm sure it's an excellent product, but totally not palatable to my three.

LOVE this product!
I acquired a horse known to have problems with ulcers. He had been on and off Ulcerguard, which as we all know is so expensive. When he came to me he was underweight, had a poor appetite, was "cinchy", and generally speaking just very nervous all the time. I started doing tons of research on the proper management of ulcers, as well as consulted my vet. I settled on G.U.T. from SmartPak and I am so happy with the results! It's been 5 weeks now and the difference in my horse is dramatic to say the least! He now has a wonderful appetite and cleans up every scrap of feed, he "cinchiness" is gone, and he is no longer exhibiting any nervous behavior. He has also gained so much weight I had to purchase a girth extender. The possitive difference this product has made is truly remarkable, and I recommend it to anyone wanting to manage ulcers with success. Plus, it is extremely affordable and my horse loves the taste. He licks his tub clean every time. GREAT PRODUCT!!

Great supplement for digestive health
Smells like baked cookies!!! Horses seem to love the taste. Quality ingredients, especially the glutamine. My horses get this at home and on the show road. Never have any problems with ulcers or colic issues.

Really Seems To Help
My horse, a healthy warmblood mare, began to become disinterested in her grain (still eating hay fine, drinking fine, no colic signs) and all other physical exam parameters were within normal limits (I am a vet student and made sure there wasn't any underlying disease going on). Anyway, long story short I got her scoped b/c I was really concerned about ulcers and she did not have any gastric ulcers, but was still being really picky about her grain intake. I gave it another 2 weeks. She would eventually eat grain if left in her bucket overnight, but she has always been very food oriented and even a little aggressive and she just didn't seem to care. So I started researching and talking to people and came across this product, GUT. A lot of people said it worked for picky eaters, etc. I tried it and within 2 days she was eating better. I honestly am not sure why it really works (not sure anyone truly is), but she has been on it a month and is still eating her grain well. I approve!

replaced neigh-lox
started using this after a great article/review by dressage trainer Lauren Spreiser. I've replaced my neigh-lox type supplements with this and so far so good. Much cheaper then neigh-lox too. wish it came as a pellet though.

Got my mare back!!
I have a 3 year old reining mare that was not diagnosed with ulcers, but she started to be overall very crabby about work. She was girthy, she would pin her ears if I got anywhere near the saddle before saddling her up. She would pin her ears when I would mount. She would kick out when I put pressure on her right side. The more I would work her the worse she would get. I decided to put her on G.U.T. The first night she wouldn't touch her grain with it in it. It was still in there the next morning, but by that afternoon she ate it. She now eats it right up with no problem. She was a new horse within 4-5 days of being on it. I doubled her up for the first week and then went to once per day. She has now been on it for about a month. No more ear pinning or kicking out, her whole demeanor has improved. Wonderful product.

I'm not a big believer in supplements, but G.U.T. has made an enormous difference in my OTTB. He's gained a huge amount of weight and he is much happier with life in general.

Great buy, palatable, and smells amazing!
My horse wasn't diagnosed with ulcers, but he was being grouchy when I would go to ride, especially when being girthed. After starting this a month ago, he hasn't displayed any annoyed or pained expressions when I'm tacking him anymore and is generally much more pleased with life, so this definitely helped whatever was bothering him. He's very suspicious of anything new in his feed, but he loves the flavor and literally licks his bucket clean! Plus, this smells like marshmallows! If I were inclined to taste test anything, this would probably it! ;)

I have only been feeding this product for a little over a month but I can tell a difference already.
My horse has gotten quieter when I work him and doesn't seem to get so excited and worried like he used to. He is a thoroughbred off the track and raced for about 5 years so I wondered if he had ulcers. He is actually a pretty melow guy when he is turned out and now he is pretty
melow when I work him also.

Stress Saver
This product is awesome. Most competition horses stress and often begin to develop ulcers. I used GUT on my project horse before he got too stressed and it made such a difference. He was less tense than before and eats better too. I wish I had known about this product when I had some OTTB's. They really need it!

Should have bought this sooner
I have a 34 year old mare who cribs. She was looking a little shabby and had a crabby attitude. I noticed she was biting her sides and chest more than I thought she should. I had her vet checked and he suggested gastric ulcers. I did my research and price comparisons; GUT through SmartPak was the best choice. Now my mare has an improved attitude, improved body condition and is no longer biting at her sides and chest. She has cut down significantly on her cribbing as well. I only have one regret and that is I wish I would have thought about this product earlier!
