When grazing on very dry, dusty or sandy soil, some horses may ingest some of that matter. Although the body can deal with small amounts, if sand and soil become accumulated within the gut, it can create digestive upset. Sand Gard Pellets are palatable and easy to feed, they support healthy movement through the gut (peristalsis) and provides herbal ingredients to naturally ‘sweep’ out excesses that have accumulated in the gut. They also provide live probiotic yeasts to support a healthy microflora population within the gut. Sand Gard Pellets can be fed regularly for long term maintenance of optimum gut health in horses who may be ingesting sandy soil.

"My favourite product is Show Off shampoo as it leaves Pi looking super shiny and white making us ready to take on anything!"
"My horse suffered with sand issues for years ago and has been diagnoses with gut sensitivity. Over that time I’ve learnt what my horse needs to keep his gut healthy. I joined a NAF Sand Gard Pellets trial and, having a lot of experience in sand tests and management, I followed the instructions exactly and could see an immediate result after just one course. My horse ate the pellets without hesitation and enjoys his tea again.
Thank you NAF for listening to me, giving me your highly professional advice and to let me be part of the trial. NAF has saved my horse and made him feel good again. I am very grateful to all of you!!"
