Product Overview
Clinically-researched gastric support
Vitalize® Alimend® powers your horse’s gastric health without suppressing normal acid production by combining the power of three innovative key ingredients. First, it utilizes MHB3® Hyaluronan, which is patented and clinically shown to support gastric health and normal GI tissue in horses. Plus, it provides AO-Biotics® Amaferm®, BioZyme®’s research-backed precision prebiotic that is designed to help normalize gastric and immune system reactions to stresses, and support proper nutrient absorption to maintain overall digestive health. Additional support comes in the form of Lion’s Mane, a mushroom extract that is rich in beta-glucans which help normalize the rate at which food moves through the GI tract, thereby moderating the release of sugar into the bloodstream and reducing the digestive upset that can occur when too much sugar reaches the hindgut too quickly. Previously only available through veterinarians, this liquid gastric supplement is now available for sale directly to horse owners and riders like you through SmartPak.

Just finished my first bottle
I have just finished my first bottle of this and I have noticed a huge difference in my OTTBs overall attitude. Hes not as girthy when tacking up, poop has consistently been solid.
I believe this product is definitely helping his gut health. I had him at an overnight show and the weather was in the teens, he never showed any signs of discomfort / seemed way more relaxed!

Highly recommend adding this Gastric Support!
My Vet recommended adding MHB3® Hyaluronan to my mare's supplement program as part of a targeted, integrated, and ongoing support plan. I put 3 squirts into a small pan with sugar-free SmartCookies and she licks the pan clean. I love this product for the Hyaluronan but also for the added Lion's Mane mushroom and prebiotics which help her immune system keep stress factors in check. I started using it when we were treating her for ulcers with UlcerGard and will definitely keep it as part of my AutoShip because of the immense benefits I am seeing as a component of our gastric support program. Love It!

Life saver!
After a few scary episodes and vet calls with my 17 year old quarter horse we figured out my gelding had bad ulcers that would go away with medication and just come back. My gelding would lay down a lot and grunt, very gasy, and lost appetite. Has been on Alimend for 3 months and he is a whole new energetic 17 year old!! It works and is affordable!! I also recommend using their equine gel. I have used twice when our Maryland weather goes from 60s to freezing snow storm next day.....he would have loud gas and gut sounds, but the gel stopped all that.

Good Product
This does seem to be helping my horses stomach issues and I have tried everything BUT
I was really disappointed that the bottle only lasted for barely 30 days. It was advertised to be enough for 60 days.

Great for my Mare
My mare is a high level show jumper. We show about 12-15 weeks per year. She will do day shows or overnight shows and can sometimes get stressed. This is a great, affordable, daily supplement to help keep her ulcers in check and bowel movements less "nervous".

Great all around product
Ulcers and gastric upset can show it’s self with so many different symptoms. I am very happy with how this product broadly covers the GI health and comfort. It’s a must have for me when traveling, showing and I keep the more sensitive horses on it regularly.

The Best Product For Ulcer Prone Horses
We had a horse diagnosed with gastric ulcers. Went through the 30 day GastroGuard treatment, then on a well known brand pelleted product for prevention. UlcerGuard given for event days. He had break through ulcer type behavior frequently - switched over to Vitalize after it was recommended by Vet. Over 4 months now on this fantastic product - he is feeling and performing better than ever. A very, very happy horse.

Why didn't I try this sooner?!
I'm very pleased with this product. My OTTB struggled to gain weight, even on a senior feed and 24/7 turn out on good grass. He started to kick out at my leg occasionally on his right side, which was unusual for him (and I've owned him 3 years). My vet suggested this product and I saw a change in his weight within 10 days. He looks fantastic. I am considering decreasing his grain. He's stopped kicking out at my leg, and he is cribbing less. Highly recommend! Worth every penny.

This stuff is magic
I was previously using Relyne GI by Hagyard, which also contains the polysaccharide MHB3® Hyaluronan, but switched to Alimend for the higher beta glucan content and inclusion of prebiotics. I was nervous, because historically Relyne was the only supplement to keep my horse’s chronic ulcers from getting bad (and he’s a VERY picky eater so switching something I knew he ate fine worried me too. No problems with palatability at all!). He has a medical condition that requires him to be on antibiotics every day, which takes quite a toll on his digestive system. You wouldn’t be able to tell looking at him, he’s maintaining weight beautifully on Alimend!! Having it available on through SmartPak is amazing for the autoship discount, so in addition to having more “good stuff” in it, Alimend is now more affordable than Relyne.

Cheaper than Ulcerguard, immediate results
Trainer recommended Alimend for my very sensitive OTTB mare. We didn't know if she had ulcers but since Alimend was also helpful in the prevention of them she thought it was something worth trying!
I thought it seemed super expensive but then I did some research and discovered it was way cheaper than Ulcergard and any other treatment out there!
I saw a change in my mare within the first month. When grooming her she didnt flinch when I touched her belly and stood still while I tacked her up. When normally she would panic and break the cross ties. It changed my mare's life and she is so happy and content now because of Alimend!
