We had evidence that our maintenance product was not strong enough to protect many equine athletes during periods of increased stress. Therefore, we designed a new product that contains 11 herbs and 8 essential oils that specifically target ulcerated tissue. Stress excarbates the ulcer condition and during times of increased stress (weaning colts, prepping for sales/shows, transporting and keeping horses in a sale/show environment, honing for a special level of competition,etc.) something stronger is required. GUT PROTECTOR PLUS is the answer. It has a great taste that horses love and an affordable price that owners and trainers love. It is an affordable alternative to the leading product which does not have a great taste and is not affordable to many horsemen/women. Just like all of Uncle's HAPPY HORSE products, GUT PROTECTOR PLUS is All Natural and will never give a test. You can use it on race day. IT WORKS, NATURALLY!!!
