| Baileys Digest Plus (Prebiotic) is beneficial for promoting healthy gut function and efficient digestion of feed. This helps to maintain general good health, which allows the horse to perform at its best. Digest Plus is particularly useful for: Old horses and ponies, Competition and performance horses, Horses receiving a high concentrate, high starch diet, Scouring foals, Horses prone to digestive upsets, Those on box rest, Following antibiotic treatment, When changes are made to the diet. Baileys Digest Plus contains short chain fructo-oligosaccharides (scFOS) which are molecules of mainly fructose and some glucose. The bonds that join the fructose and glucose molecules have a structure that the horse is unable to break which prevents it from using the energy contained in the scFOS. However beneficial bacteria, such as Bifidobacteria, are able to utilise scFOS as an energy source which allows them to proliferate and keep pathogenic species at bay by competitive exclusion.
