"My Arabian Mare, Maya has been having Gastro intestinal issues for the past 6 years, basically the whole time I have had her. Mostly nasty spasmodic colic’s that come on frequently but resolve rather rapidly as well. She has been treated for Ulcers over the past 6 years. She has had ultrasounds, blood tests, belly taps repeatedly over the past 6 years, but in the past few months she had them all done again. Nothing unusual comes up in her tests, so we still have no official diagnosis for her. We know that she is very sensitive to sugars and fructans in the grass and her feed contains no sugars or grains. Most of her flair ups are over the s.. Read More
"My Arabian Mare, Maya has been having Gastro intestinal issues for the past 6 years, basically the whole time I have had her.
Mostly nasty spasmodic colic’s that come on frequently but resolve rather rapidly as well. She has been treated for Ulcers over the past 6 years. She has had ultrasounds, blood tests, belly taps repeatedly over the past 6 years, but in the past few months she had them all done again. Nothing unusual comes up in her tests, so we still have no official diagnosis for her. We know that she is very sensitive to sugars and fructans in the grass and her feed contains no sugars or grains. Most of her flair ups are over the summer months, she can be fine for months on end, though 8 months is the longest stint we have had her colic free. At the beginning of 2013 she had colic 8 times in 3 months. Her colic’s were always rapidly resolved but the frequency was really worrying me. She was referred to a local equine hospital and 3 hours of ultrasounds, once again showed nothing.
In July last year I moved her to our new property. She was doing well and her health was very stable. However she relapsed again this year in early March. Bloating, colic, mucous covered manure are the normal symptoms but this year something else happened, she literally dropped off all her weight and muscle within a week. She was like a walking skeleton. Her appetite has always been great and she has never stopped eating even during these flair ups. The above tests were repeated and once again all came back normal. She was wormed, teeth done etc all the obvious addressed. Once again she was put onto another course of Ulcer meds. Her feed amount was slowly increased to double the amount.
She began slowly putting weight on and she seemed to be improving but nothing miraculous and I was constantly waiting for her flair up again. Then were visited by Cyclone Ita, she did not cope real well with that and dropped off the weight she had been gaining. I was about to put her back onto yet another course of Ulcer Meds, I work with Doug English at Marlin Coast Vet and am pretty familiar with Turmeric, I even got sent a Turmiracle sample to try.
However it was your Equitec product Clean Culture that was pointed out to me by Michelle Lavington from the Feed shop as possibly being something to try for this horse. Michelle had been sent a sample and offered it for Maya to be a guinea pig. :) So she was put on the 10 day course right after the cyclone hit. I didn't see much change at all during the course, however was really surprised 2 days after the course was finished. She just looked better in herself and she looked like she had put on weight. Another week went by and its like she is suddenly able to utilise nutrients in her food again. 4 weeks have since gone by and there is a big change, we are certainly have a way to go, and the vets think her condition will always be there, it’s unlikely she will get totally better similar to humans with chrons disease, she will always have flair ups. But for now we have normal manure with no mucous, weight coming back on. She has just done some 5 x 10km rides over the past 10 days, not competitive at all but just being able to ride this horse is huge, let alone 5 times in ten days.
Thanks for coming up with a great product. I will be reaching for the Equitec Clean Culture now instead of the Ulcer Meds if we ever have another flair up."

"I purchased him at the end of last year which was at the time an extremely risky purchase: - he had never scored over 50% in dressage - he always had rails - he had control issues But there was something about him I really liked and just hoped that I could bring out the best in him. When I got him I was fairly confident some of his issues were tummy related. I put him on comfort gut, a toxin binder, which seemed to work quite well and his results were great - never missing out on a ribbon. He then started to go off his food, his poo became pretty well diahorria, he lost weight. I stared him on cool stance and he did start to pic.. Read More
"I purchased him at the end of last year which was at the time an extremely risky purchase:
- he had never scored over 50% in dressage
- he always had rails
- he had control issues
But there was something about him I really liked and just hoped that I could bring out the best in him.
When I got him I was fairly confident some of his issues were tummy related.
I put him on comfort gut, a toxin binder, which seemed to work quite well and his results were great - never missing out on a ribbon.
He then started to go off his food, his poo became pretty well diahorria, he lost weight. I stared him on cool stance and he did start to pick up a bit in condition but still the poo got worse.
My vet told me take him off the comfort gut as it can bind the good along with the bad in the stomach. We put him on a Hind gut supplement and pro biotics. This was the few weeks leading into Melb 3de. I feel sadly some of this may have affected his performance xc at Melbourne as generally he just eats it up.
Anyway, since Melbourne he had a spell and has been fed cool stance, rolled barley (I do it myself) chaff and a multi vitamin. He had started to look a bit better but was still off his food.
A 10 day course of clean culture and WHAT a difference. He is waiting at the gate and neighing for his food. He has gained weight. He is so shiny. He licks his bowl clean. He seems much more relaxed and happy in himself in the paddock and to handle (he is generally pretty good under saddle anyway!)
This product is brilliant and I'm so glad I've found it as he is a little stress head so tummy issues will always be part of his management.
Thankyou so much!"

"Meet Electronic Fortune, an ex race horse from Hong Kong. Since retirement Fortune and I have teamed up for a few trail rides and a couple of recent adventures in Show Jumping. The First picture is him in early January 2016. He was getting hard fed twice a day, lots of hay and had plenty of grazing, but his coat was dull and he wasn’t gaining any weight despite all the feed. I gave him a course of Equitec Clean Culture (10 days) as I suspected at the very least he had digestive upset if not ulcers. Following the course he immediately started to pick up. His coat improved and he started to gain weight. The second picture is him two weeks late.. Read More

The thirdpicture is another couple of months after that - at his first show. His coat looks great and he has gained weight and top line. I highly recommend trying Clean Culture if you are struggling to put weight on a horse or if you suspect any sort of digestive upset"

"We bought this mare in this skinny condition (top image). She was clearly unwell. Your sponsored rider Tim Bowman suggested I try Equitec Clean Culture and Respirite to detox her system. I’m very happy with her improvement. Together with great food and lots of love, I really do believe your products turned her around in two weeks! These photos are a month apart...we reckon she gained 150kg at least ...and no sign of her cold. She’s looking beautiful now and better every day."Monika Read More

Mac, one of my young guns, arrived at my place at the end of last year looking a bit “dull”. After a course of Clean Culture (an amazing Stance Equitec product) and a couple of months on my staple Stance Equitec CoolStance and supplements he was looking and feeling a million dollars. This of course presented its own set of problems as his attention span went completely out the window and he turned into the worlds biggest spook! I first started him on Placid Rein and noticed an improvement, and now with the addition of Toxin Binder I’m blown away by how much more rideable he has become.” - Asha Read More
