composition
live yeast
learn more
Live yeast are the smallest unicellular microorganisms that have positive properties on digestion, metabolism and the intestinal environment. Supports digestion and contains important minerals and trace elements. Yeast positively feeds the balance in the colon. It supports the barrier function of the intestinal mucosa and can thus have useful effects on digestion, microflora and the immune system.
Helps with excessive acidity in the digestive tract and irritation of the gastric mucosa. In addition, it is rich in calcium. For more harmony in the intestinal tract!
Fructo-oligosaccharides (chicory)
learn more
Has a prebiotic effect by supporting the formation of beneficial intestinal bacteria through multiple sugar compounds, at best minimizing the formation of toxins in the intestine and strengthening the intestinal mucosa.
Jerusalem artichoke
learn more
Is a root vegetable and therefore a prebiotic fiber. The root contains valuable inulin and fructo-oligosaccharides. In this way, it supports an intact bacterial flora in the intestine.
carrots
learn more
Also found ground in Colon Vital and are beneficial for the intestines. They are considered a proven home remedy for diarrhea and provide valuable nutrients and vitamins. They also contain important beta-carotene.
Has proven itself over many years as a mucous membrane protection. Pectin already forms a protective layer on the mucous membranes in the stomach. In this way, irritation of the mucous membranes and the resulting inflammation can be alleviated. The protective layer also makes it harder for harmful bacteria to adhere to the walls of the stomach and intestines.
sodium chloride

Is important for the normal functioning of the central nervous system and generally supports a balanced acid-base balance in your horse's body.

Seit meine Stute vor einigen Jahren extrem mit Kotwasser zu kämpfen hatte füttere ich Colon vital. Damit hat sie nur noch für kurze Zeit in der Rosse etwas Kotwasser. Colon vital wird gerne gefressen und gehört bei mir zum Futterplan dazu. Die Lieferung erfolgt immer super schnell und zuverlässig.
Ich liebe das Pulver! Meine Stute hatte jahrelang mit Kotwasser zu kämpfen. Seit wir das Pulver füttern hat sie gar keine Beschwerden mehr und wirkt viel agiler und fitter. Definitiv nicht mehr wegzudenken aus unserer Routine!
Ein tolles Produkt!
Ich füttere es dauerhaft, da das Darmmikrobiom so vielen Faktoren (z.B Wurmkur) ausgesetzt ist und habe sehr gute Erfolge damit gemacht. Hier bekommen es Hunde & Pferd.
Sehr zu empfehlen — Ich füttere Colon vital schon sehr lange da meine Stute sehr starkes Kotwasser hatte. Mit dem Füttern von Colon vital wurde es zusehends besser. Inzwischen hat mein Pferd nur noch an 1 - 2 Tagen Kotwasser wenn sie rossig ist. Ich kann Colon vital nur empfehlen.
Wird im Mash anstandslos gefressen — Wird im Mash anstandslos gefressen. Gebe es als Kur da mein Pony Medikamente bekommen hat. Regt die Verdauung an, mehr als sonst 😀. Die Zusammensetzung finde ich super, da es auch das Immunsystem aktiviert.
Wird gut gefressen — Ich füttere das Annimally "Colon" jetzt im dritten Monat. Meine Stute frisst es untergemischt in ihren Heucobs oder im Mash ohne Probleme. Auch habe ich das Gefühl, dass es ihr gut tut (Äppel sind z.B. "schöner" geformt) - zur langzeitwirkung kann ich allerdings jetzt noch nichts sagen, bzw kann ich keine eindeutigen mit dem Produkt in Verbindung zu bringenden Veränderungen erkennen, daher 4 Sterne. :-)
Zufrieden! — Ob es was bringt, weiß ich noch nicht. Auf jeden Fall wird es gut gefressen und beruhigt mein Gewissen 😅
Service und Lieferzeit unübertroffen!!!

Angenommen von meinem Pferd wird es in jedem Fall gut.
Allerdings wird es leider nicht sehr lange halten, da es von der Fütterungsmenge /Tag schnell aufgebraucht ist. Hier würde ich mit größere Packs wünschen.

Wird gut gefressen — Gekauft um den Magen-Darm-Trakt zu unterstützen bei der Eingewöhnung nach 'nem Umzug. Gucken, ob es etwas bringt. Beruhigt aber schon mal mein Gewissen 😅

Einfach nur Top — Einfach nur Top. Meine 30 Jahre alte Stute hatte ganz schlimmen Durchfall. Nach einer Woche mit dem Pulver ging es bergauf mit ihr. Kein Durchfall mehr. Das Pulver gebe ich zu ihren Heucobs mit dazu und weiche es im Wasser mit auf. Trocken unters Müsli gemischt frisst sie es nicht. Habe auch schon eine zweite Packung gekauft, welches am nächsten Tag gleich ankam. Rund um kann ich es nur empfehlen.
Gegen Kotwasser — Gegen Kotwasser , Magen- und Darmprobleme durch Stress. Das Kotwasser ist nach 5 Tagen Colon Vital fast ganz weg. Ich bin Ernährungstherapeutin und beschäftige mich sehr mit dem Mikrobiom beim Mensch und habe gute Erfahrungen mit Probiose.

Long known to us: the intestine is considered our second brain. If the intestinal flora is disturbed, our mind and the rest of the body work on the back burner. It's the same with our loved ones. The development of the intestinal flora is particularly important after the administration of medication, for example after deworming or after colic, diarrhoea, faecal water or other gastrointestinal diseases. The intestinal flora can also get out of balance if the feed quality fluctuates, for example when feeding hay or when changing the feed. Your darling was stressed? We also know: Stress affects the stomach! Colon Vital helps Snowflake and Co. to find their usual balance.
pre- and probiotics
We like the intestinal flora stable!
The pre- and probiotic ingredients in our Colon Vital probiotic vital powder for horses support a stable intestinal flora by feeding the natural bacterial strains in the intestine. This strengthens the absorption of nutrients in the intestine - and the good food really goes down well with your darling. At the same time, the general activity of the stomach and intestines is improved. Our Colon Vital supports the entire digestive system - for a balanced stomach and intestinal environment. Splendid! Such a good digestion is something fine and contributes to the general well-being of your horse.

There is so much good in our probiotic intestinal powder

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What makes Colon Vital powder so special?
The Colon Vital powder was specially developed to support the intestines and intestinal flora of horses.
Its particular strength lies in the combination of various gut-relevant components that complement each other:
Prebiotic ingredients, which can serve as a nutrient source for beneficial gut bacteria
Dietary fibre, which support natural intestinal activity
selected nutrients, which can contribute to stabilising digestion
Thanks to this balanced composition, the powder can help to support the horse's digestive tract and stabilise its intestinal flora.
When is Colon Vital powder useful for horses?
Supporting the intestinal flora can be particularly useful when the horse's digestive tract is under stress.
Typical situations include:
after deworming
after the administration of medication
during changes in feed
after stressful situations such as transport or a change of stable
in cases of sensitive digestion
During such phases, Colon Vital Powder can help to support the natural balance of the intestinal flora.
Why is a healthy gut flora important for horses?
The intestine plays a central role in the digestion, nutrient absorption, and general well-being of the horse.
Billions of microorganisms live in the large intestine, which:
break down feed components
make nutrients available
support the digestive process
If this equilibrium becomes unbalanced, it can impair the horse's digestion and well-being. Targeted support of the gut flora can help stabilise this balance.
For which horses is Colon Vital powder particularly suitable?
Colon Vital Powder is particularly suitable for horses with a sensitive digestive system or an increased need for intestinal support, for example:
Horses with sensitive digestion
Sport horses under stress
Older horses
Horses after stressful situations
Horses after medication
Especially for horses with a sensitive digestive system, supporting the intestinal flora can play an important role.
Can Colon Vital powder be fed regularly?
Yes, Colon Vital Powder can be fed over a longer period of time to continuously support the digestive tract.
As a complementary feed for horses, the product is subject to the requirements of EU feed legislation (Feed Regulation). This ensures that the product is used exclusively for nutritional support of digestion.
Regular feeding can help to support the stability of the intestinal flora in the long term.
