Alfalfa for the buffer effect, with the increased calcium,
and another option is Safflower Oil. This info came from research done at
OK. State Univ. I believe. I attended a presentation done on ulcers and
horses - especially distance horses. We have less (about 65%)
ulcerations than Race Horses (about 95%) BUT our ulcers are in the smooth cell
area of the stomach - rather than the glandular area. This means that our
ulcers are WORSE!!! Speculations are that it is the trailering and
stress of competition, that lends our horses to have the ulcers.
