Don’t let poor digestive tract health sideline your horse.
Neigh-Lox® Advanced
Horses with a healthy GI tract digest their feed more e�ectively so they absorb additional nutrients. They are less likely to su�er from digestive imbalances resulting in colic, diarrhea and ulcers.
Providing horses with ample opportunity to graze or o�ering free-choice hay is one of the best ways to keep their digestive tract healthy.
Limited grazing, inadequate amounts of fiber, larger grain meals, and frequent routine changes
can irritate gastrointestinal tissues and disrupt the sensitive microbial populations that are so
important to your horse’s digestive health.
An unhealthydigestive tract
can lead to subtle changes
such as sour attitude, poor
coat quality, and weight loss.
Horses with a busy lifestyle where grazing is limited and stress levels are high• Performance or racehorses• Young horses in training• Horses that travel
Neigh-Lox Advanced provides a scienti�cally advanced blend of ingredients that work synergistically to maintain your horse’s digestive tract in peak condition.
Fed daily, Neigh-Lox® Advanced supports a healthy equine GI tract, which reduces the incidence of:
• Colonic irritation and ulcers
• Colic and laminitis related to hindgut acidosis
• Diarrhea
• Gastric ulcers• Low immunity
• Oxidative stress and cell membrane damage
Certain horses are at greater risk for developing digestive imbalances that lead to colic, diarrhea and ulcers.
Horses with certain dispositions• High-strung/excitable• Timid and easily stressed• Overly aggressive• Quiet worrier• Herd-bound
Horses with a past history• Prone to sour attitude and indigestion• Treated for gastric or colonic ulcers in the past• Recent or ongoing treatment with NSAIDs and/or antibiotics

Action of digestiveenzymes reduces particle size
Healthy villi improve nutrient absorption
Blood vessels transport nutrients to cells throughout the body
Cells of intestinal wall facilitate passage of nutrients to bloodstream
Blood vessels transport nutrients to cells throughout the body
