First time of using Settlex but appears to be helping my horse who has had ulcers in the past.

Still experiencing episodes of gas colic which is disappointing but thankfully manages to clear them by passing wind like a deflating balloon and only have to use the vet supplied painkiller. Maybe without Settelex the outcome would be more serious.

Palatable but did not notice a significant difference.

Amazing product! I have been using this for four months now and it has really reduced the amount my pony cribs whilst being stables. He used to do it when in his stable and after feed or treats, he now only cribs after he’s been given a treat.

Have only been using for a short while but my mare does seem less gassy. Bit too early to tell whether it’s purely the Settelex or also some tweaks to her diet.

Nutrition Information

Settelex™ is designed to soothe the digestive system and help to maintain healthy amounts of acid within the stomach, which in turn helps to maintain normal behaviour. The horse secretes hydrochloric acid (HCl) almost continuously as it is needed to breakdown the continual flow of food that horses ingest with their natural trickle feeding behaviour. When horses eat they produce saliva which contains bicarbonate that buffers the HCl production, keeping the pH of the stomach within correct levels. Trickle feeding helps to maintain healthy pH levels within the stomach due to a regular addition of saliva to the stomach. When horses become stressed (due to competition, travel, extended times in the stable) or are fed a high cereal grain diet, the amount of HCl produced increases and the amount of saliva produced decreases. In these cases, it is particularly important to optimise stomach health.

Feeding Guide

Weight of Horse/Pony	Amount per feed
Up to 400kg	½ scoop
Over 400kg	1 scoop

1 level (50ml) scoop of Settelex™ weighs approximately 30g

Introduce gradually and feed with each meal. For best results, feed Settelex™ twice per day, and up to a maximum of three times per day, at the recommended intake based on your horses weight.

Settelex™should be added to the feed immediately prior to feeding - if not, effectiveness may be lost.

Avoid feeding large concentrate meals (pellets, mixes and grains). Instead feed little and often throughout the day, especially concentrate feeds. Always feed at least 1.5% of your horse's body weight per day as fibrous forage (for a 500kg horse feed at least 7.5kg of fibre per day).

Feed supplements should be fed according to body weight. Introduce to the horse's diet gradually, splitting between feeds (when applicable).
