How Does it Work?

By swelling after absorbing water, psyllium increases bulk in the intestinal tract and is believed to induce peristalsis and increase mobility in the intestinal tract. In the treatment of sand colic in horses, psyllium is thought to help collect sand and to help lubricate its passage through the intestinal tract. 

Other Uses:

• For constipation resulting from too little fiber in the diet
• To increase stool consistency in situations with watery diarrhea

Product Advantages:

• May help reduce the possibility of sand colic
• Psyllium will encapsulate sand and dirt to help in removal 
• Horses love the apple flavor
• Pelleted and easy to feed as a top dress or fed alone
