Beneficial Activity Found

Clay Cannon, D.V.M. and Associated Regional and University Pathologists, Inc. of Salt Lake City tested the effect of Ration Plus™ on equine digestive microbial populations. Four healthy horses were fed quality alfalfa hay and oats for 20 days to establish a baseline, then supplemented with 4cc/day of Ration Plus™ for 30 days.

Analysis of fecal samples revealed the following results:
1. The total number of bacteria per gram of feces increased with Ration Plus™ supplementation from 105 to 106.
2. More beneficial species were recovered in treated horses.
3. Streptococci were found less often and in smaller numbers.
