Spillers Ulca Fibre

Spillers Ulca Fibre is an ultra-low starch, low in sugar and high in oil fibre feed for horses and ponies prone to or suffering from gastric ulcers.

Product Description

Spillers Ulca Fibre is a high fibre feed that includes soft, short chopped alfalfa that is a natural buffer to stomach acid and extend eating time. Ultra-low in starch, low in sugar and high in oil for slow release energy, Ulca Fibre is proven* to help in supporting horses and ponies that are prone to, or suffering from, gastric ulcers.

The added oil boosts overall condition, performance and coat shine while added vitamin E, an important antioxidant, supports muscle and immune health. As well as high quality protein, Spillers Ulca Fibre includes lysine, which helps with muscle development, and a range of other vitamins and minerals, such as copper, zinc and manganese, which maximises absorption.

Spillers Ulca Fibre is a highly versatile feed that can be fed on its own or as part of a suitable low starch compound feed.
