With the very hot weather the grass is now very short. My horse had sand colic some years ago and a regular course of psyllium husks helps eradicate any sand he may have eaten.

Does the job, currently on very sandy soil and not worth the risk of sand colic. Only wish there was an option for a refill bag, currently only available in a tub.

Psyllium is part of basic care for my horses.

Moved to an area with sandy soil and recommended to use this product every few months

Easy to use,good price and enough left for at least one more treatment

Keeps them safe from sand colic

Worked well and my mare's droppings have returned to normal.  We have recently moved to a yard where the soil is very sandy and she was showing signs of sand colic.

DIDN'T DO WHAT I THOUGHT IT WOULD, BUT THAT'S NOT YOUR FAULT

Used it for years and only use the Feedmark psyllium.  It works really well and gets rid of sand almost instantly - highly recommended

Brilliant and effective product

My daughters pony is on restricted grazing and we're on sandy land. She has psylium husks once a month to stop the risk of sand colic
Trusted Feefo Customer - 24/05/2020 20:18
Gives reassurance. All horse carers need to be more aware of the dangers of sand colic, even if they think the land isn’t sandy.

Excellent through and through

Simple product, does the trick

Great for horses at risk of sand colic.
Trusted Feefo Customer - 01/12/2019 22:09
Psylium husks are very dusty and despite lots of chaff they tend to be left at the bottom of the bucket. Poor for horses with breathing issues. To be supplied in a different form would be beneficial.

Great price.

Better value than the leading alternative;  palatable and no problem to feed.
Trusted Feefo Customer - 18/12/2018 12:52
Difficult to get excited about Psyllium! But it keeps my horses safe and gives me peace of mind
Trusted Feefo Customer - 07/01/2018 18:16
Gives peace of mind, considering my sandy soil

An essential product for sandy grazers.

Nutrition Information

Psyllium Husks have been used traditionally in humans, and are a recognised management option for horses with sand burdens. As a soluble fibre source Psyllium Husks form a gel-like substance when exposed to water. The water absorbing properties of Psyllium means it acts as a hydroscopic sponge, allowing it to pick up and aid the removal of unwanted foreign material (such as sand and indigestible roughage) from the folds and bends of the digestive tract.

Composition

Psyllium husks (Planago ovata)
