Description

“A new, completely natural brewers yeast pelleted feed additive named Kombat Boots is now available commercially for feeding to horses. The unique pelleting process used to manufacture Kombat Boots provides an extremely palatable and easy to feed form of brewers yeast. Kombat Boots is composed of 50% brewers yeast and therefore provides 100g of Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast in an 8 oz serving. Brewers yeast is a good source of protein and amino acids for horses and contains many other macro and micro minerals and B complex vitamins. In the past, numerous scientific studies have demonstrated the beneficial effects of adding yeast to equine diets. Research has shown that adding yeast to the diets of horses can:

stimulate and stabilize microbial activity in the hind gut
reduce incidence of colic and ulceration by maintaining pH balance through colonization of healthy microbes throughout the digestive tract
improve fiber, calcium and phosphorus digestibility
improve nutrient composition of milk in lactating mares
improve digestibility and feed utilization in young horses and aged horses
increase daily gains in growing horses
enhance athletic performance by improving aerobic capacity
improve the quality of hair, skin and hoof
