Product Description:

99.6% Pure Husk. Husk (not seed) is the most effective part of the psyllium. The apple flavoring insures that your horse will eat our tasty supplement. Sand Free is the most palatable psyllium on the market and will not cause weight gain when fed properly.

SAND-FREE is cleaned and dried blond husk from the Plantago Ovata plant. It has been cleaned and screened to be free of residual pesticides.

SAND-FREE Apple Flavored Psyllium Husk is the Epidermis (outer shell) of the seed from the Plantago Ovata plant and is grown almost exclusively in India.

Recommended for horse prone to sand colic and will not contribute to weight gain.

Psyllium forms a gel-like substance surrounding the sand and pebbles then flushes them out through the intestinal tract. Insoluble fibers (such as bran) simply pass through unchanged and contribute little to laxation.
