Composition
Description
Reverdy Care is a nutritional supplement (powder) for horses.
A combination of gastric acidity regulators and L-glutamine.
Takes part in preventing and healing of stomach ulcers in the horse.
Why using Reverdy Care?
- Preventing gastric ulcers.
- Can be used at higher doses in the following situations:
- Suspicion of gastric ulcers in stressed horses,
- Stress causing situations: transport over long distances, periods of intense training, preparation for the sale ring, etc.,
- Known presence of gastric ulcers, in addition to a suitable diet.

Properties
Lithothamnion is calcareous seaweed presenting a sponge like (“honeycomb”) structure. These special characteristics explain its prolonged and highly effective buffering effect in an acid environment. Its effectiveness in neutralising the acid secretions of the stomach has been validated in the horse. In horses studied, giving the same quantity of lithothamnion as contained in the equivalent of 2 measures of CARE over a 30 day period, permitted a considerable reduction in ulcerous lesions.
It has been proven that scFOS reduce the acidity of the stomach contents in the horse. As prebiotics, they increase the quantity and activity of the intestinal flora which use lactic acid.
L-glutamine is a significant source of energy for fast renewing cells, such as those of the digestive tract. This amino acid thus participates in preserving the integrity of the gastric mucosa and helps heal ulcerous lesions.
Zinc sulphate is involved in the rapid and prolonged inhibition of acid secretions in the stomach.
