Loose Droppings in Horses & Hindgut Health
As the seasons shift, so too can your horse’s gut health. You might notice changes in behaviour, energy, or the first obvious sign — loose droppings. Whether it’s rain-soaked pastures, richer grass growth, travel, stress, or even small tweaks in routine, digestive upset can occur fast. That’s where Equell Gut Food steps in.
Signs of Digestive Upset in Horses
If your horse is suddenly girthy, fussy with feed, or prone to soft or loose droppings, it could be a sign of hindgut imbalance — and it’s more common than you might think. Many horses suffer from low-grade hindgut stress that goes unnoticed but can affect digestion, mood, and even coat condition. It can lead to nervous horses, spookiness and out of character behaviour.
What to Feed Horses with Loose Droppings
Unlike many popular gut supplements that only target stomach acid, Gut Food is designed to work where long-term digestive health really begins: the hindgut. That’s where trillions of beneficial microbes live — forming your horse’s microbiome. When this system is nourished and balanced, horses experience optimal digestion/nutrient absorption, consistent droppings and overall wellbeing and vitality.

Equell Gut Food is our complete digestive support formula — created to nourish the hindgut and support a healthy, diverse microbiome. 100% natural, packed with prebiotics, herbs, superfoods, antioxidants and plant-based ingredients, it feeds the good bacteria that form the foundation of digestive and immune health.
Whether you’re managing a sensitive youngster, a veteran, or a competition horse in full work, Gut Food helps stabilise digestion and ease the transitions that can throw gut health off track.
