Fabulous product. Sorted out my pony’s issue of months, within 2 weeks.
Great advice over the phone too.

I had been really concerned about what was causing the faecal water problem with my TG cob. I kept thinking it was the richness of the hay, it the new grass, but then I remembered reading about a problem with sandy ground some years ago.
Thankfully I did, because that led me to Feedmark Sand Free. Just two weeks ago, I was having to wash my pony's hind legs every day and was despairing. Very soon after starting on Sand Free, my pony improved and for the last two days he's had lovely clean hind legs. Fabulous!

Our horse was having wet and runny poop, the vet recommended using psyllium husk and it's worked a treat, really pleased with the results.

Nutrition Information

Psyllium has been used traditionally in humans, and is a recognised management option for horses with sand burdens. Containing a soluble fibre source, Sand-Free™ forms a gel-like substance when exposed to water. The water absorbing properties means it acts as a hydroscopic sponge, allowing it to pick up and aid the removal of unwanted foreign material (such as sand and indigestible roughage) from the folds and bends of the digestive tract.

Composition

Psyllium husks (Planago ovata)

Analytical

Crude protein 3.1%, Crude oils & fats 0.8%, Crude fibre 4.8%, Crude ash 2.6%, Sodium 0.07%

Why does Sand-Free™ need to be fed dry? 

Psyllium is a solubule fibre source, which forms a gel-like substance when exposed to water. The water absorbing properties of Psyllium enable it to act as a hydroscopic sponge, surrounding and removing unwanted foreign material (sand, toxins and indigestible roughage) from the folds and bends of the digestive tract. 

 

Can I feed Sand-Free™ if I feed a soaked feed?

You can add Sand-Free™ to a soaked feed, however add them near to the time you will be feeding your horse. This is because Sand-Free™ will absorb water and form a gel-like substance and we want this process to happen once the horse has ingested the Sand-Free™, and not happen in their bowl.
