Targeted daily nutrition for a balanced microbiome and optimal digestion.
Gut Food is Equell’s 100% natural gut balancer for horses. Many hindgut supplements contain prebiotics derived from only one source - inulin (chicory root). Our alfalfa free formulation combines chicory root with 12 different prebiotic fibres to support a diverse, healthy hindgut and digestive comfort in all horses and ponies. Ideal for those who struggle with hay changes, grass flushes, stabling or stress - or if you simply want to support your horse’s hindgut in the best possible way.
Key Benefits

How Gut Food Works
Modern horse management challenges digestive stability every day. Grass flushes, haylage switches, restricted turnout, travel, stabling and stress all influence the hindgut. A gut supplement for horses like Gut Food provides a gentle, plant-powered way to help maintain hindgut balance, using:
- Polyphenol-rich botanicals
- Natural prebiotic fibres
- Natural calcium and sodium contribute to normal digestive enzyme function and electrolyte balance
- Natural binder (sepiolite) to aid in normal removal of mycotoxins
Instead of focusing on adding live bacteria (probiotics), Gut Food is packed with prebiotic fibres designed to feed and support the beneficial bacteria already present in the hindgut. A healthy bacteria colony will then also produce their own postbiotics.
Gut Food is an ideal gut balancer for any owner wanting to help replace some of the plant diversity that horses in the wild would benefit from by foraging wide terrain.
