"I've had my paing gelding for 3 years now. He's always been a bit spooky, but I thought after some time and training, he would get better. We moved to a new barn about 6 months ago, and all though he was never a bombproof horse, his spook started to get worse. For the first few months I chalked it up to being in a new environment, but after 6 months, I had had it. I wanted something I felt safe to jump cross country with, or at least show in dressage, and my guy was just too spooky to do anything with. Last month I put him on SmartGut, and boy what a difference!!! He's a completely different horse! He's focused during training, and just much more mellow than he has EVER been! The only thing I changed was adding this supplement. My equine chiro said my guy was tender in the girth area, and that was a signe of ulcers, which is why I put him on this supplement to begin with. I never expected to see the changes in his demeanor that I have. I'm so glad I bought this supplement!"

"My OTTB was starting to get girthy and just wasn't putting on weight the way I would've wanted. I have just stared the SmartGut over the past two months, but he's settling down, and I intend to continue using this product. It is palatable and he is thriving and looking good, and he isn't as girthy and twitchy... I hadn't started him on meds because I wanted to try him on supplements first, and I feel I've made the right decision starting here!"

"My 15 yr old Arabian gelding started wind sucking several years ago. I have tried everything to make him stop, from cribbing collars to hot pepper. Nothing seemed to work and Serix was just one unhappy camper! After reading all the reviews and some research, I thought I'd give Smart Gut a try. He's been on it about a month and a half and he's much happier and Serix even quit wind sucking. He is so much happier now and that makes me happy. Thanks SmartPak!!!!"

"After treating my suspected ulcer horse(4 yr Quarter Horse Reiner) with Gasto Guard for 45 days I still was not seeing results that I was happy with. His hair coat was not looking very good, his appetite was very poor in spite of his work levels and he was not putting on weight that he needed. After reading the reviews on here about Smart Gut I decided to give it a try. After a week on the product I noticed he began finishing his supplements. After two weeks he I noticed his appetite had increased. He has now been on the product for several months and he is a whole different horse. His coat is shiny and healthy looking, he is whinnying for food at meal time and he finishes his food clean, I am happy to report he is now on the chubby side :)
I just re-ordered another 15# bucket and am going to start my daughters reiner on it who is not gaining the weight I want him to."

"Smart gut has been amazing for my mare. She developed ulcers and was anxious, irritable, not eating her hay. After completing a 30 day treatment of ulcergard paste as recommended by my vet, I placed my mare on smart gut. Its amazing...no ulcer flare ups, back to her old personality, and not too pricey. She loves the taste! I recommend smart gut to anyone that has a horse that may have stomach or anxious tendencies. That and minimal grain in their diet does wonders!"

"My 4 year old mare was diagnosed with Ulcers over a year ago. We treated her with initially with Gastro Guard and shortly switched to Ranitidine and started her on Smart Gut. It definitely helped keep her eating well but it did not prevent her ulcer's from recurring. She recently had a minor bout of colic and was diagnosed with hind gut ulcers. My guess is that she would have coliced sooner and worse if she had not been on the product. The vet reviewed the ingredients and recommended my adding more supplements. I looked at the ultra but since the amount of L-Glutamine, Aloe and other supplements are lumped together in the ingredients my vet wanted me to stick with the regular Smart Gut and separately add more L-Glutamine and Aloe and another company’s pro-biotic product. I think the product has great ingredients in it but it alone it’s not enough for horse that has regular ulcer problems. Talk with your vet to see what else your horse may need to use with this product."

"My vet disagrees with me, but I am 100% convinced cribbing CAN be a sign of ulcer, or at least acid reflux or something. My 23 y.o. QH has cribbed as long as I have known him (7 years). He stops mid-meal to crib --- or at least he used to. He has been on Smart -Gut Pellets for a little over a month now. I noticed about a week ago, that is no longer cribbing. I mean not at all. Or at least not when I am watching.
I am going to try Smart Gut Pellets on one of our shelter horses, an ex-harness racer who cribs non-stop, even more than my QH did. I will let you know how it goes!"

"I have a 27-year old quarterhorse gelding who is in excellent shape except for bouts of runniness with his manure. I do expect some digestion issues at this age and have tried various probiotics and he has been on two courses of ulcer medication. I read the reviews for this product and was hopeful and willing to try anything. Within 2 days, he was much improved and I just received my second shipment so I can continue with this product. No more runny manure! I am so relieved and he probably is too because washing his rear and legs in cold weather is not fun for anybody. This is a great product and I would recommend that anybody with this type of issue give it a try."

"Even under a heavy training/riding regime, he has started to gain weight and looks much healthier.
Took about three weeks to start noticing, but now he is not quite as fussy about his food and not leaving food in the bucket."

"My draft cross mare has been having on & off diarrhea for about 18 months now. I tried 2 different cheaper probiotic supplements during this time and I noticed improvement while she was on them, but she was still getting sick. She also started getting sensitive about me touching her belly, which leads me to believe she has developed ulceration. I clearly needed to step up her support and started her on SmartGut about 2 months ago. While her stool is still soft, it's not like it was and she doesn't get cranky about her belly any more. Hopefully, this was what she needed and she'll make a full recovery. She also LOVES the taste, it's gone almost as soon as you put it in her tub."

"I purchased this product thinking my horse has stomach ulcers. I used it for over a month and saw no change in her disposition. It is not fair for me to blame the product, when probably the problem was not as I thought it was. So it is hard to rate a product when it was not what was needed. I rated it as a 3 because of the price. I thought it was very expensive for the amount of product received, and of course it did not work for me. Palability was great. Might work for someone else. I was already using U-Gard which works just great."
