Re: pre/probiotic

Hello Elaine,

For the adult horse that is generally healthy, I highly recommend Synbiotic EQ. It is a pro and prebiotic along with immune system support.

A stronger version for horses with more extreme immune system issues, go with Daily Start.

And for the elderly horse, I like Equine Gold because it also contains digestive enzymes, which older horses do not produce enough of any longer.

All the best,
