Proper Digestive Health Supplement

  • Helps soothe the entire digestive tract
  • Supports healing of gastrointestinal ulceration
  • Maintains bacterial balance

Excel helps to soothe the entire digestive system (esophagus, stomach, small and large intestines and the colon), which aides in lessening the discomforts of digestive issues. You can use a quick palpation test <instruction video at right> to help you determine if your horse has digestive tract sensitivity.

The key ingredients in Excel are Aloe Vera Powder and Marshmallow Root Powder. They promote overall digestive health and help to reduce the negative side effects of gastric upset. Both work well with the prebiotic Yea-Sacc® to allow increased absorption of needed nutrients from food.

Psyllium Husk Powder has long been recognized as an excellent means of getting more dietary fiber and promoting colon health. Psyllium forms a gelatin-like mass in the colon, which keeps the bowels soft and regular. This mass also helps absorb toxins.

Slippery Elm Bark Powder resists breakdown from stomach acids and enzymes so it maintains a soothing action throughout the digestive system. In addition, it helps regulate bacteria in the intestine and enhances good gut flora.

Marshmallow Root is a mucilaginous extract that promotes soothing of any ulcerated tissues.

Veterinarians who study ulcers say that nearly 90% of our horses have and suffer from gastrointestinal ulceration.  Some symptoms associated with gastrointestinal distress are: ulcers, weight loss, diarrhea, body soreness (especially over the low back/lumbar area), cribbing, sensitivity over the sides (especially over the last rib), and the most common symptom is cinchy or girthy horses. Anxiousness, anger, defensiveness, dead sided, weaving, stall walking, and teeth grinding are also symptoms of ulcers that reoccur.

Excel is an all-natural digestive health supplement that is fed daily. Excel may be used long term without the possible build up of aluminum, found in daily antacids, which may create a metal toxicity.  It is mixed with alfalfa and brewer’s yeast to make it more palatable to the horse.

Many horses tested with Horse Hair Analysis consistently show severe nutritional deficiencies in at least 3 of the 4 electrolyte minerals, iron, selenium and cobalt. A significant percentage also have a toxic metal present in their body, such as aluminum or mercury, that must be chelated from the body in order for it regain optimal health. These imbalances have a direct impact on digestive health, attitude and willingness of your horse to perform their job.  For more information on Horse Hair Analysis, click here.

The Health Library contains informative articles on a proper feed program in the Nutrition category or for a brief overview of Dr. DePaolo’s feed program, check out the Feeding An Anti-Inflammatory Diet and Ingredients To Avoid tools on our website.

If your horse has been diagnosed or is suspected of having ulcers, you are encouraged to read the articles in the Digestive category of the Health Library or view the Ulcer Diagnosis video at right.

EXCEL, NEUROLOGICAL KIT, HHA

Dr. Mark Depaolo and staff really help my horses! He is amazing! My horse was very grumpy, scared, etc... but with his help we were able to get him 99.9% back! Since we do not live near him he helped us over the phone and emails! Great vet and staff! Did the hair analysis and it helped my horses so much. He custom makes the personal supplement based on your horse's results. Amazing! Highly recommended. Really nice, honest, kind, caring vet and staff. Help my horse and I. Highly recommended. My horse had EPM and we used the Neurologic Kit. It helped my horse so much! My horses are fed his Essential then we do some organic grain then his horse hair supplement. Ulcers... our horse had ulcers and we purchased the Excel supplement and no more ulcers! Awesome. Could not say anymore great stuff. Worth every penny! He has YouTube videos you can watch. Very helpful! Thank you so much!
