Overview
Which horses benefit from comprehensive GI tract support?
Your horse’s gastrointestinal (GI) tract has a number of critical roles to play, including breaking down food, absorbing nutrients and housing a large portion of your horse’s immune system. Unfortunately, many common elements of modern horsekeeping like training, travel, large grain meals and increased stall time can be detrimental to GI health. While supporting the GI tract is a smart choice for any horse, it's especially important for those dealing with these stressors, or for those with a history of GI issues.

It works!
I bought this after my horse had a bad colic episode that left him at the vet for a week and a couple thousand dollar vet bill. He has been on it for a month. I was late getting the new bag and after the two days he wasn’t on it he is having another bout of colic that so far is more mild. I have him back on the supplements and will be taking him to the vet tomorrow so hopefully a quick recovery!

very happy with this product
My horse was diagnosed with ulcers last year. We treated him & cleared them up but for preventative care I decided to put him on SmartGI Ultra pellets. He has been on it for about 4 months now and no further ulcer episodes. Yay!!

No More Hindgut Issues!!
I had my horse on this supplement (~3yrs) until we moved outside the USA. She developed hindgut ulcers and use of a Vet suggested, locally available GI supplement, didn't seem to work. So ordered SmartGI Ultra Pellets and within 3-4 weeks, there were no more signs of hindgut issues (swishing tail, stamping foot, head whipping around) when near or touching her rear flank. I am SO THANKFUL for this supplement as it clearly works for my horse! Will continue to order and use only this supplement as local products just don't seem to work. Highly recommend this supplement if your horse suffers from ulcers or GI issues.

Not sure about Ulcers, but he looks GREAT!
My horse was treated for ulcers over the summer and scoped clear after 2 months of GG. I started him on this supplement because of several of the ingredients being effective at treating ulcers in some good quality studies. My horse has since had a fracture in his leg and been on stall rest for 3 months so I have not been able to see how he is under saddle. But, even with stall confinement I don't have any indication of ulcers. The most amazing part is his overall appearance is just fabulous. Even my vet commented on how good he looks, and she has seen him very frequently since the fracture. Last year when he must have already had the ulcers coming on, his coat was really gross and scraggly and he lost some weight over the winter. He always had a greyhound "Tucked up" rear belly and was just generally lean, even when on free choice pasture. On this supplement his belly is much more loose and relaxed looking and his coat is thick and luxurious! I have left him "au natural" since he's confined in a stall and he has grown in a wonderful coat. His weight is the best I have ever seen it. I am not sure if this supplement is helping with his ulcers, but it is definitely giving him something he needed because he looks great! The first picture is before and the second after he had been getting supplement for about 3 months.

Not effective
Kept my horses on this supplement for several months as he weaned off ulcer treatment and subsequently Ulcergard prevention. Unfortunately, symptoms recurred which prompted re-scoping which revealed ulcers again. My vet advised that my money was better spent on buying Ulcergard as these supplements do little in terms of efficacy. Smartpak is way to use though and a simple system.

Was not effective at preventing ulcers
My mare was treated for ulcers with 6 weeks of Gastrogard/Ulcergard, and then placed on SmartGI Ultra at the suggestion of a friend. It seemed to work for a couple of months, but I recently started hauling her out for weekly lessons, and the ulcer symptoms have returned. For the cost of this supplement, I was hoping it would do a better job at preventing ulcers.

My horses loves it!
I have had him on supplements for a while but started on the smartgi after an ulcer incident. He's scoped clean and I feel that this is helping to keep them from returning.

Effective
This supplement is keeping my horse comfortable while he is in training. I have had great success with the SmartGut Ultra pellets as well, but I wanted to add the benefits of hindgut support. I have noticed less girthiness and sensitivity along the flanks while he is on this.

I put my mare on this to transition off of omeprazole/sucralfate treatment for ulcers. She is picky but reliably cleans it up and has been tolerating a return to work well.
I re-ordered two weeks ago and still haven't received it (UPS probably lost the package for a few days, it was shipped on time), so she's been off of it now for a couple days - she's increased her ulcery behaviors, so something is working in this!

My horse refuses to touch it
I have tried literally everything under the sun to get my horse to eat this supplement and he will not touch it. I tried coating in cocosoya oil, mixing in apple sauce, coating in molasses, mixing into his no bake treats, mixing into his grain, and mixing into his soaked hay pellet mush. He apparently hates the taste of it so much that he won't eat it when it's mixed into his mush or his treats. I love all my other smartpaks, but so disappointed that he won't eat this.
