Cavalor® Gastro 8 The Nutritional Tool for Gastric Ulcer Management and Prevention
Indication for Use:
Every equestrian understands the sensitive nature of a horses digestive system. While issues related to the small and large intestines are well recognized and routinely treated, gastric health is often overlookeddespite its critical importance.
Studies (including post-mortem and endoscopic research) indicate that 7589% of performance horses suffer from gastric ulcers. The primary cause is prolonged exposure of the squamous mucosa to gastric acid. Saliva is the only defense the horses stomach has against acid and pepsin. However:
- Grain meals and fasting reduce saliva production
- Intensive exercise significantly increases gastric acid levels
- The result is frequent and prolonged acid contact with the stomach lining
Common Symptoms of Gastric Ulcers Include:
- Drop in performance
- Sour or irritable behavior
- Poor hair coat
- Teeth grinding
- Loss of appetite or picky eating
- Weight loss
How Cavalor® Gastro 8 Helps:
Treatment strategies aim to reduce acid secretion, neutralize existing acid, or protect the mucosa from exposure. Cavalor® Gastro 8 supports all three approaches by:
- Neutralizing gastric acid
- Stimulating regeneration of stomach lining
- Protecting the squamous mucosa using multiple nutritional strategies
