EquiNectar Veterinary Gastrointestinal Field Study

This was a retrospective veterinary field study of horses that had received a standard EquiNectar protocol and had clinical follow-up records available over two months.

For the first four weeks, EquiNectar was fed twice daily according to body weight: 125 ml per feed for horses below 300 kg, 150 ml per feed for horses weighing 300–550 kg, and 175 ml per feed for horses above 550 kg.

For the second four weeks, twice-daily feeding was reduced to 75 ml, 100 ml and 125 ml respectively for the same weight groups.

There was no separate untreated control group.

Some horses received EquiNectar alongside dietary recommendations, while others continued additional therapies as part of their existing veterinary management.

Clinical response and differences between presenting conditions were subsequently assessed from the case records.

Veterinary case records were reviewed for age, breed, weight, presenting signs, presumed or confirmed diagnosis, change in clinical signs, time to improvement or resolution, and whether EquiNectar was continued beyond the initial two-month protocol.

Clinical presentations included recurrent abdominal pain, excessive fecal water, chronic diarrhea, weight loss and refractory equine gastric glandular disease.

Where available, diagnoses were supported by clinical pathology, ultrasonography, gastroscopy, transendoscopic biopsy and transrectal biopsy.

Differences in response between clinical presentations were evaluated using Fisher's exact test.
