Oreco Healthy Cut
Fibre is essential in every horse’s diet. The horses’ unique digestive system requires a lot of good quality fibre for proper development, function and health. Research reports that insufficient fibre length can lead to hindgut acidosis, colic, gastric ulcers, stable vices and behavioural problems.
When developing or balancing the equine diet, the quantity, quality and type of forage should be the first consideration, but research has now shown the length of the fibre plays such an important part in overall horse digestive system health.
Oreco Healthy Cut has been developed with that in mind. The increased fibre length promotes so many more benefits than just a good quality chaff.
HEALTHY FOREGUT & HINDGUT
A healthy hindgut is essential for a healthy horse. Oreco Healthy Cut helps feed the microbial population of good bacteria in the hindgut. Keeping the hindgut full further reducing the risk of colic.
HEALTHY MOUTH, TEETH & GUMS
The Healthy Cut length assists with maintaining normal and even teeth wear patterns, and may be suitable for horses currently suffering dental issues.
POSITIVE MICROBIAL ACTIVITY
Horses evolved to consume and digest fibre, Healthy Cut fibre intake promotes a healthy gut microbiome and maintains it.
MINIMISE BEHAVIOUR PROBLEMS
Horses were designed to consume fibre for a large portion of their day. The increased fibre length encourages increased chewing time, minimising boredom.
INCREASED CHEWING & SALIVATION
Oreco Healthy Cut increased fibre length encourages increased chewing and salivation. Maximising the amount of time your horse spends eating minimises the risks of colic and gastric ulcers.
HEALTHY SKIN & GLOSSY COAT
During fibre digestion in the hindgut, the microbiota produce fatty acids, this coupled with the added oil in Healthy Cut may aid in keeping a horses skin and coat healthy and shiny.
A healthy horse starts with a healthy gut!
