HorseFlex Psyllium Seed is a 100% natural feed supplement for horses, made from whole psyllium seeds ( Plantago Ovata ). It effectively supports digestion and contributes to healthy intestinal transit , especially in horses at risk of sand ingestion.
What exactly is psyllium?
Psyllium seed is known for its unique properties. The seed coats contain a mucilaginous substance that swells into a jelly-like mass upon contact with water. This property makes psyllium seed very valuable for removing sand from the gastrointestinal tract of horses.
The name "flea seed" comes from the appearance of the seeds, which resemble small fleas. It has been used for years as a natural supplement for horses kept in paddocks or poor pastures, where the risk of sand ingestion is greater.
Why give psyllium to horses?
Many horses unknowingly ingest sand through grazing or feeding on sandy soil. If sand intake becomes excessive, it can lead to serious intestinal problems such as sand buildup or even sand colic .
Psyllium seed supports:
- A normal intestinal transit
- The natural removal of sand through the manure
- Healthy bowel function and digestion
Thanks to its binding properties, the sand adheres to the jelly in the intestines and is excreted naturally.
When in doubt, always consult a veterinarian or nutritionist. HorseFlex Vlozaad is a supportive tool, not a substitute for professional advice.
