U-GARD
The Nutritional Alternative To Drugs
For Gastric Ulcers In Horses
Gastric ulcerations occur in approximately 80% of racing thoroughbreds and horses that perform
strenuous exercise. Gastric ulcers are generally recognized as being caused by the stress of stall
confinement, training, feeding large amounts of high-starch grain, insufficient fiber in their diet, or long
periods between feedings.
The ultimate diet for horses should be free access to grazing grass and a sufficient amount of good
quality hay along with a minimum amount of concentrated starchy food to supply the energy needed
for the level of work the horse is performing. Performance horses are sometimes stabled up to 23 hours
per day while being fed large amounts of starchy foods with limited amounts of hay.
U-GARD was clinically-proven to be effective in decreasing the severity of gastric ulcers in a 73-day
racetrack field trial study on thoroughbreds in race training.
U-GARD was voted the "Number One Ulcer Feed Supplement" by The Horse Journal and proclaimed
Equine Product Of The Year.
U-GARD is formulated with all-natural ingredients. Each ingredient was chosen to perform a specific
function, which synergistically allows the body's natural healing process to take place.
