Hello, i never knew just how complicated the horse gut
was. Not being a scientist or Vet and not being real smart its an
eye-opening experience to find out there is about 1.7 litres of acid that comes
into that gut every hour and the horse being a grazing animal, they need food
substance to neutralize this acid. And to find Antacids are frowned upon
to neutralize this acid build-up. Maybe thats why by some estimates up to
90% of performance horses have ulcers. My Mother told me the ole time
saying.."An ounce of prevention prevents a pound of cure." tom
