What were your first impressions? “I first thought the quantity was great value for money and when open it smelled really good so my mare would eat straight away without turning her nose up at it.”

How did you test the product? ” I have been giving this product to my competition mare who is out competing most weeks/weekends. She can be really girthy tacking up in the stable especially. As she is away competing a lot her routine can become unsettled going from turn out to stabled 24/7 and travelling a lot, therefore, her foraging and ability to graze also changes. After using acid ease, I found that she was less girthy when tacking up and I had piece of mind that her gut / digestive system was getting all the support needed to help her perform to her best and keep her healthy.”

What did you like most about the product? “Knowing my horse has all the correct nutrients to ensure her gut is healthy meaning her feed nutrients are able to be absorbed, keeping her in prime health and fitness enjoying life and the fact it smells and tastes good means she eats it all!”
