Baileys

Baileys Better Biome brings together three valuable digestive enhancers in the form of a prebiotic, a probiotic yeast and postbiotics which work synergistically as a unique support package for the horse’s microbiome to help promote optimum gut health.

Prebiotic – Baileys Digest Plus, a short chain Fructo-Oligosaccharide (sc-FOS) acts as a food source for beneficial gut bacteria helping them to flourish at the expense of pathogenic species.

Probiotic yeast – Saccharomyces cerevisiae stimulates fibre-digesting bacteria, helps increase their numbers and also helps reduce the risk of excess acidity in the hindgut.

Postbiotics - These are defined as inanimate microorganisms and/or the end products of microbial fermentation, like metabolites, that confer a health benefit on the host. The natural microbial population of the horse’s gut are continually producing these metabolites, which include volatile fatty acids from fibre, B vitamins and other compounds, which are beneficial to health and well-being. Better Biome supplies an additional source of these metabolites in the diet daily to help ensure the horse always has a consistent supply, regardless of any stress factors which may affect the microbiome.

Stress can upset the horse’s microbiome and impact on their health and well-being. Feeding a combination of pre- and probiotics helps support the hindgut microflora through these times of stress, while the addition of postbiotics means the horse is less reliant on its microbiome to produce these beneficial metabolites while it becomes re-established.

Better Biome is designed to be added to a horse’s daily bucket feed and, provided it is stored in a cool dry place, out of direct sunlight, will keep well so can be used as and when the need arises. It can be given as a short-term solution in response to a more acute disruption to the microbial population, such as after a course of antibiotics or, if the microbiome is likely to be compromised indefinitely, such as with old age, it may be used long term to counteract the problem.

If giving in soaked feeds, add Better Biome just prior to feeding, especially in warmer weather, otherwise the live yeast may begin to ferment in the feed bucket.

Delivery

We aim to dispatch all orders received before 2pm the same working day (with the exception of some items that clearly show a delayed dispatch notice on the product image).

The order may also be delivered to your place of work or left in a safe place at the chosen delivery address (safe place does not require a signature but is left at the customers own risk). Please be aware all Express Courier orders require a signature (or a photograph) upon delivery, unless requested otherwise. Delivery charges are calculated on the delivery weight that we assign to a product. This may differ from the actual weight of the product, for example, in instances where the bulky nature of the product means increased postage costs apply. If there is no one in to sign for the delivery and a safe place has not been selected an automatic re-delivery will be attempted the next working day. If for a second time the delivery has not been signed for and if no attempt is made to re-arrange delivery, the order will returned to us.

Returns

To receive a full refund the goods must be returned to us in new and resaleable condition, with tags still attached (if applicable) and in the original manufacturers packaging (if applicable).
