Product Overview
Which horses benefit from comprehensive hindgut support?
In his natural habitat, your horse would graze most of the day to meet his nutritional needs. As a result, his digestive tract is designed to rely on a slow, steady intake of complex carbohydrates like grass and hay. However, constant access to fresh pasture can be hard to come by and many horses don’t (or can’t) have access to free choice hay. Unfortunately, this along with other common events like changes in hay or grain and increased stall time can contribute to an unhealthy hindgut and lead to digestive upset. That’s why it’s smart to provide every horse with support for a balanced hindgut, as it is critical to their overall health and well-being.

Great Peace of Mind
I bought a Friesian and many are sensitive to change and colic very easy. Thanks to the SmartDigest Ultra Powder, my guy has never looked or felt better. Thank you for offering a peace of mind.

Haven't made a final decision on it yet
My horse has been on it for 5 1/2 weeks. I've seen some improvement of his loose stools but hoping to see more improvement in the next few weeks. I'll update this then.

Happy Tummy Now
This product actually works! My very sensitive thoroughbred had a tendency to colic after ever show, after every change in weather, or short period of not being out. Since he's been on this we've have 4 rather dramatic weather shifts, a rated show, and a week of not being to go out, yet he hasn't even had a grumbly tummy. This stuff really has helped him!

combination pre and probiotic
I had just read an article suggesting that prebiotics were more beneficial than probiotics for horses. Your product combines both and provides colic insurance to back it up.

Love this product
I decided to try this after my horse was stressed from a recent move and having to be on antibiotics. I was very impressed that within a week her "cow plop" poos were a thing of the past! She is feeling much better now. Thank you Smartpak and SmartDigest!

Excellent product!
Shortly after purchasing my mare she started having loose stools and fecal liquid so bad it ran down both legs but no temperature or other signs of illness. My vet did a diarrhea PCR panel test, fecal test and blood test and also checked for sand but all came back negative and he suggested a Pro/ Prebiotics product , which I did but was still not having normal stools and fecal liquid amounts varied from just a little to a small stream..then I started her on SmartDigest Ultra Powder 11/19/16 and with a few days her stools are normal and no fecal liquid!!!! Since this was about the third product I had tried, I decided to start by purchasing the 28 day bucket, but after seeing the results I ordered the SmartPaks to take advantage of the ColiCare protection. Oh and my mare loves it too!! Thank you SmartPak I love this product:)

My horse LOVES this stuff!
I'm so happy to have my gelding on SmartDigest Ultra powder. It's a huge relief to have him receive such a high-quality digestive health supplement and be covered under Colicare to boot! He's a picky eater yet loves eating this powder. Even I think it smells pretty good myself! ;)

Worth its weight in gold. When you get the call or the visit that results in surgery as the only option, you can rest easy, Smartpak has you!

Well worth it
I feel protected knowing if my horse needs colic surgery, he is backed by colicare. It's like colic insurance for your horse.

Life Saver
After treating my OTTB for ulcers, I needed a preventative supplement for her. She's been on the SmartDigest Ultra for well over a year now with excellent results. No gas, no pain, solid stools. I was weary of using a powder but my mare will lick any leftovers in her bucket. I highly suggest this product. Plus having the reassurance of Colicare is great.

Effective for digestive issues
My mare has been on SmartDigest Ultra for a month now. No problem with palatability - she seems to like it. The product has significantly reduced her issues with intestinal gas.

Like it so far!
My horse just tested positive for hindgut ulcers and was showing signs of overall discomfort. He has been on this for a little over a month and has already shown a change in attitude and seems to be feeling better already! So far we are VERY pleased with this product!

Excellent Product
I started my competitive trail horse on Smart Digest Ultra a few years ago after he ended up in the hospital and was diagnosed with gastric ulcers. He was treated for the ulcers and they cleared up, but he was always an anxious horse, worried about everything, especially the trailer, and he had a hard time gaining and maintaining weight. After starting him on Smart Digest Ultra his nervous diarrhea improved, and his ability to gain and maintain weight also improved. Sadly, I lost him suddenly and unexpectedly to an allergic reaction.
Now I am using Smart Digest Ultra for my three year old filly that has recently begun traveling. I want to prevent any problems due to the stresses of traveling, and keep her healthy. I believe Smart Digest Ultra will help me to do that!

Easy to feed, horse loves it
As with anything digestive, it's difficult to tell if it's working correctly. However my horse loves it, it gives us the quality of mind with ColiCare and he is happy and healthy.

Great product
I've been using this for over a year and a noticeable difference with one gelding - in that he seems happier and is cleaning up his grain and hay.

Great product
I was very happy with the value for the price and all of smartpak'a assistance. I sold the horse before she was on it too long so I can't vouch for its long term effects but she ate it and had no digestive issues while on it.

Switched back to GI Ultra
My horse didn't like the powder form and the product for her, just didn't seem to help like GI Ultra did which I had been using for a good 6 months prior. She got girthy about two weeks into using this. So we switched back to GI Ultra, which is a pellet and she likes to eat. Everything is good again on GI Ultra. Smart Digest Ultra is probably a good product for some horses, just not mine.

I didn't expect much...
I'm usually not big on supplements. I'm a big believer that a healthy horse starts with good hay, pasture, grain, and management. However sometimes even with the best care, you still need a helping hand. I have a 24 year old OTTB. After racing in 110 starts and then transitioning into a 7 day a week lesson program, he came to me with a few issues. He was stressed, underweight, bleached coat, and an extremely picky eater. On top of that we were dealing with chronic lymphangitis in both hind legs from day one. With that comes a lot of NSAIDs and antibiotics. SmartDigest Ultra was this horse's saving grace. He went from stressed, dull, and not finishing his grain, to happy, shiny, and fat. Of course a great diet and management did most of the work, but SmartDigest Ultra has helped keep my boy in top shape for his strenous job as a babysitter. He's looking and feeling great, thanks to Smartpak!

Good product and customer service
Very knowledgeable SmartPak representative helped me select this product to replace another SmartPak product to which my horse had a slight allergy to one of the ingredients. My horse is doing well on this supplement. I especially like that it includes probiotics.
