Our Services
EquiGut services provide a profile of your horses gut health. EquiGut MOT provides an insight in to parasites, inflammation and immune function. EquiGut Optimise is designed to help you evidence and improve the management of your horses gut health. EquiGut Microbiome can complement these test to help target dysbiosis. EquiGut WormCheck supports responsible worming. Move from guesswork to evidence for managing your horse.
We are currently in the process of beta-testing our platforms and scaling up our operations and processes. Until we have fully launched our internet commerce our online shop is not open for business. During this roll our period, we are offering our analytics at heavily discounted rates. If you have interest in having your horse(s) tested, please get in touch to discuss our services and your needs.
EquiGut
MOT
MOT provides a one off FEC, inflammation and immune profile for your horse's gut and provides management recommendations. Upgrade to a subscription model to keep track of changes, understand trends, and identify risk periods. If your horse is considered 'at risk' we can evaluate changes with the Optimise intervention package.
For: Leisure and performance horses and those with recurrent GI issues
Optimise
Optimise provides a transformative approach to horse management. This package starts after an MOT identifies horses with concerning gut state. We retest, have an expert led consultation about management (e.g. feeding, supplements, veterinary interventions, etc). We then suggest potential changes, and retest to evaluate gut health has improved. Example applications: 1) introducing support during travel and competitions. 2) for horses that have chronic inflammation or colic prone, we evaluate gut state before and after supplement or diet changes. See case studies for examples.
For: Evidence based optimisation of leisure and higher performance horses
WormCheck
EquiGut WormCheck provides you with faecal egg counts to help you manage your worming schedules and products. We then provide worming advice from our RAMA qualified staff. Use our one-off product to check your horse's parasite status any time. Upgrade to a subscription to track counts and compare how effective different worming products are.
For: conscientious horse owners who want to optimise worming schedules and products.
Microbiome
EquiGut Microbiome profiles gut microbes to identify dysbiosis, or unbalanced gut bacteria. Unlike other services, we can link microbiome to gut health through evaluating presence of bacteria associated with leaky gut and inflammation, and crucially evaluate whether your management changes improve your horse's microbiome.
