I purchased this for a mini mare who had colic a year previously. She's stresses easily and is also prone to loose stools. I've been using it for a couple of months now and I am going to continue using it. I think she's looking great and her health is fantastic. I think it's definitely worth a try if you have a horse with digestion issues. BTW, my mare has no trouble at all with the taste. She eats it right up.

My 28 year old mare had diarrhea. She was vetted, wormed regularly, and nothing about her feeding schedule or daily routine had changed. I tried a simple probiotic and it helped a bit. After reading the description for Invigor and the fact that it was recommended for horses with Cushings (which my horse has), I decided to give it a try.
In about a week's time, I noticed the diarrhea clearing up and shortly after, she had solid manure. Invigor really works. It is easy to mix into the feed. My mare is a picky eater and will usually not touch feed with any additive, but she cleans her bucket with the Invigor added .
Invigor was the perfect product to balance my horse's digestion problem. She looks good, feels good, and even seems to have a bit more perk. It is reasonably priced and the results were great for my horse. I would highly recommend Invigor, especially for an older horse who might just need a boost.

Invigor worked initially, but then the stools became loose again, although they were less watery.

I used this supplement for my ulcery rescue mare (along with probiotics). It absolutely helped her digest food better, stopped occasional loose manure, and just made her less crabby. Smart digest Ultra worked better, but this product is more affordable and still worked great!

With all the positive reviews I was hopeful this would help with my 29 year old geldings diarrhea, but unfortunately it hasn't. He's a picky eater and he cleans this up well, but it just didn't do anything for him.

I have a stallion with chronic diarrhea - been going on for 10 years. I've tried the most expensive products and treatments. The only product that has ever worked reliably is Invigor! Why mess with success. I won't use any other product now and religiously use Invigor once daily in his feed. He hasn't had a day with diarrhea since I returned to this product. I will never stray from it again. It has worked perfectly as a temporary treatment for sporadic bowel imbalances in my other horses as well. I highly recommend Invigor!

My 18 yr old warmblood suffers from watery projectile diarrhea, which always becomes chronic from mid-Fall thru early Spring when there's no grass and I'm adding more hay to his diet. You'd think it would be the other way around, but this is how his system reacts to hay, and you don't want to know what happens if he gets ahold of alfalfa. Until I discovered Invigor, I was dealing on a daily basis with this stuff not only drying & crusting all the way down his legs and scalding his skin, but also the mess it made of his blankets, his stall, and my trailer. Thanks to Invigor, those days are over. By the second day, the diarrhea was history. I add 1 scoop a day to his feed, year round, and haven't had to deprive him of hay and there has been no sign of diarrhea. A couple of times I tried skipping the Invigor for several days to see what would happen, and each time the squirts returned, but as soon as I started him back on Invigor, the diarhhea went away. I buy three or four 10 lb. tubs per year, and I feel it's very reasonably priced. Thanks, Smartpak, for an easy & affordable solution to a real problem!

When I got my QH cross rescue gelding at 14 years old, he was having a tough time with the transition. He had been neglected and while he wasn't really underweight, he was malnourished and had fairly severe diarrhea. After simply feeding him a proper diet didn't improve his diarrhea quickly enough, I put him on this supplement. It worked quickly and within a couple weeks, his diarrhea was completely gone and he was noticably healthier.

I purchased this for my pony, who has and has pretty much always had diarrhea. I finally decided to turn to a supplement for it. She eats this right up, even when it's not mixed in grain. (but then again, she's NOT a picky eater.)
When I first got it, I had her on it for I believe 28 days, as I purchased the smartpaks.
I don't remember how long it took to work, but it was no more than three weeks, I want to say. It worked great.
then it ran out and I had forgotten to order more, so she was off of it for a week or two, and her runny poo came back.
Then I ordered more and started giving it to her again, and again it worked. I had her on it then for 5 or 6 months, but by the last month or so it stopped working and her runny poo came back.
maybe that happened because I had her on it for a long time, and didn't switch out the supplement, and her body got used to it? not sure. It's a good supplement, just didn't work out for my pony in the end. I've now purchased Smartflex senior, which has both digestion and joint support, so I'll see how that works for her!

My horse is 33 years old and suffers from Cushings. She had been having diarrhea off and on for months, when I read a description of Invigor in a Smartpak catalog. Within days of trying this product, she once again had normal stools. I have been using this product for well over a year with no diarrhea at all! Apparently, it tastes good too!

I have a 7 y o mare. Diarrea, gas colics, ulcers & very picky eater.
I tried multiple products, and in all cases it wouldn't work, or she wouldn't eat it.
Half a year ago I swithed her to Invigor.
From now on: mares tail is always clean, not a single case of diarrea, even at the shows!!! Gas spasms are gone. And she actually eats the product!

My Lippy gelding has had intermittant diarrhoea for 5-6 years. It was suggested once that he had "Leaky Gut Syndrome" - but we don't really know. Invigor is the 5th or 6th biotic gut remedy we've tried, along with many other strategies ($$$$$). We did once use a liquid prebiotic that also worked, but it's hard to manage liquid supplements at our barn - so I needed to find a dry product - of which Invigor is the 3rd we tried. We started shoveling Invigor two months ago, and as of today Pooky has gone 45 days without the squirts - a new world record! Invigor alone worked well enough, but topping off the daily dose with a tablespoon of cheap bulk psyllium powder fine tuned things nicely. I had fondly hoped that Invigor might trim Pooky's waistline, but a noble baroque buddha belly is above such trivialities. Sofar it looks like Invigor is palatable, effective, and affordable. I plan to celebrate the return of God's little green apples by washing Pooky's tail tomorrow!

I have a 26 year old mare who has trouble with diahrea every time new hay gets delivered. Invogor really helps to calm her system down and get her back to normal.

My Icelandic mare has suffered with diarrhea most of 10 years I have owned her. I have tired many different supplements to improve her condition. I finally found using Invigor a prebiotic and Ultra-Elite Digest from US Animal in Vermont, a probiotic is the magic Formula. After 10 years of experimenting, using various products and combinations, I finally have achieved 100% success. Both products are very palatable.

For the past 6 years, as soon as new grass in the fields starts getting less and less and I started feeding more and more hay and grain, my 30 year old would start getting diarrhea. I cut her grain back, and fed more hay, -- I cut hay back and fed more grain all with the same results. I tried hay cubes and this helped some. This year was the worst and when it was 5° -- keeping her clean and more important - dry was next to impossible -- I called Smart Pac and Invigor was recommended. 3 days -- only 3 days later, Lady is back to normal!!!! and remained so for 2 weeks now. Thank you so much for your knowledge and help.

I've used Invigor on my 6 year old Saddlebred gelding who has always been very prone to colic and has a sensitive digestive system. Since using it, there's been no colic-type episodes and even his coat looks great. I wouldn't be without it.

Invigor works! I love this product. I had been searching for a product for years that would help my horse with her problem and nothing else worked. She has had intermittent liquid diarrhea-like discharge off and on for years (sometimes referred to as "scours"). Sometimes it was not too bad, but other times, I had to hose her back end daily because it would run down her legs. Several different vets had me try various things but because we didn't know the cause, we never found the cure. We ruled out every possible cause and nothing changed. Because I was always looking for a product that might help her, when I saw the description for Invigor in the SmartPak catalog, I decided to try it. I had tried a probiotic before, but not a "prebiotic" plus it said it might help with hay belly which was another problem.
At the time I began giving her Invigor, she was having this discharge and it stopped within a day or two. In the few months that she has been on the Invigor, she has not had the problem at all! Plus, her hay belly has diminished and her mane and tail seem softer.
I mix the Invigor (love the smell) with her grain and she licks the bucket clean. Also, the cost is very affordable.
Thank you for carrying this great product!
