Zesterra is an all-natural supplement formulated for all types of horses. It provides excellent support for performance horses that easily develop ulcers under stressful conditions. Zesterra can help reduce acid buildup in the horse’s stomach, improve appetite, increase water intake and enhance absorption of vital nutrients! Some of the carefully selected ingredients include colloidal silver, water, glycerin, soybean oil, onion extract, orange peel bitters and fatty acids extracted from vegetables. Here are some key factors as to why you should consider having Zesterra supplements in both your feed room and in your horse trailer as you travel.

How Does Zesterra Work
Stress Relief : The neutralization of excess acid in the stomach reduces the production of stress-elevating cortisol! Chronic stress and subsequent release of cortisol have been implicated in many conditions includes aggressive behavior, weak immune system, decreased growth and reproductive capability and increased risks of ulcers, colic and diarrhea.
Improves Hydration and Promotes Appetite : By reducing excess acid within the stomach (which may discourage water consumption). Horses tend to love the natural apple flavoring of Zesterra, which makes it easier to intake those healthy gut flora that neutralize acid buildup promoting both thirst and appetite.
Body Condition : “With the improvement in digestion, nutrient absorption and appetite, horses — especially hard keepers — are able to gain or maintain a healthy weight.”
Prevents Respiratory Infections and Immune Booster : Zesterra given to a horse before traveling can neutralize acid, which reduces discomfort and cortisol release. “This strengthens the immune system and can help prevent respiratory infection. It’s also beneficial to give the horse a dose before the onset of a major weather change or when there’s a disease outbreak.”

Ulcer Prevention
“Reduction of stomach acid is key to ulcer prevention, and it also improves the rate of healing in horses that are being treated for this condition.” Heres how horses can develop ulcers:
- Diet / Feeding Patterns : Horses are natural grazers, and their digestive systems are designed for a continuous intake of forage. Prolonged periods without food can lead to increased stomach acid production and a higher likelihood of ulcers.
-
Stress : Horses tend to be sensitive creatures that can experience stress due to various factors such as transportation, changes in environment, social interactions, training, competition, and confinement.
-
Exercise : Intense exercise or training, especially on an empty stomach, can cause the stomach to churn and increase acid exposure to the sensitive lining, potentially leading to ulcers.
-
Access to Water : Dehydration or limited access to water can contribute to ulcers by reducing the stomach's protective mucus barrier and increasing the concentration of stomach acid.
-
Housing Conditions : Horses that are stalled or confined for long periods without access to forage can be at a higher risk of developing ulcers due to stress and altered feeding habits.
*Signs that your horse has ulcers: Changes in appetite, weight loss, changes in behavior, poor performance, girthiness and sensitivity around the stomach, grinding teeth, excessive salivation and recurrent colic symptoms*
If you suspect that your horse might have ulcers, it's recommended to consult a veterinarian who can perform a proper diagnosis. Diagnosis typically involves a combination of clinical signs, history, and diagnostic tests such as endoscopy to directly visualize the stomach lining. If ulcers are confirmed, your veterinarian can recommend an appropriate treatment plan.
When Do I Dose My Horse? And How Much?
Giving your horse Zesterra periodically can prevent ulcers and boost feed and water intake but its also beneficial to use Zesterra when your horse will experience stressful situations. Ideal times to give your horse a proper dosage would be :
-
Twice a week for acid neutralization and increased nutrient utilization
-
Just before hauling your horse on a long journey
-
When your horse is not eating as expected
-
When your horse looks lethargic or has scours or diarrhea
How to Administer Zesterra
Draw out appropriate dosage into your syringe then deliver slowly, allowing the horse to swallow the supplement completely. Be sure to lift the horse’s head slightly, this will encourage them to swallow gradually. While Zesterra is designed to be most effective when delivered as an oral dose, you may place it in your horse’s water or top-dress their grain!
*When your Zesterrra turns darker in color please note that this is completely normal - when the natural apple flavoring oxidizes it will change in color. This will in no way effect the potency of the product.*
