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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStress 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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBetter 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. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIf 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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFeeding Instructions;   \u003cbr\u003ePonies – 20g (1 x 25ml scoop) per day.
