Designed for horses for TOTAL digestive health and during times of gastrointestinal (GI) upset.
What is PROTEK GI?
PROTEK GI is Kelato's ultimate supplement, targeting both stomach and hindgut health.
The research shows that daily supplementation with PROTEK GI reduces the incidence and severity of gastric ulcers following discontinuation of omeprazole.
PROTEK GI's unique formulation targets stomach and hindgut health by providing coating agents that form an alkaline slime barrier over the stomach wall to help protect against acid burn while buffering gastric acid and strengthening the mucosal lining. Levucell SC® yeast probiotic and Agrimos® yeast prebiotic work synergistically to help reduce lactic acid in the hindgut (stabilizing hindgut pH) and stimulate the growth and activity of beneficial bacteria.
PROTEK GI is formulated in collaboration with world leading EGUS authority Dr Ben Sykes (BSc BVMS MS MBA DipACVIM PhD FHEA).
Trust the science! world leading EGUS authority Dr Ben Sykes explains more about why he uses and recommends PROTEK GI, the new research and how this could benefit your horse in this short video.
Customer Reviews
I've now used this product on two completely different types of horses after diagnosing and treating ulcers then transitioning to this product. Both horses continue to maintain on Protek GI and have not had any ulcer flair ups when I use this product regularly.
My 4 year old gelding was scoped and confirmed to have pyloric ulcers. He is very ulcer prone. I did 2 months of Misoprostol and then the last week of Treatment I added Protek GI. So Far he has been on it for 2 weeks and I show no signs of ulcers coming back as his behavior was horrible. He now is much more relaxed and seems to be back to himself. I will update this review when I hit 90 days. I know not a lot of people do that but I will or write a new one referring to this one. I so far love this stuff and Customer services is awesome. They answered all my questions and never pushed me or gave false promises. I am glad that so far all seems good. He is happy again and back to playing. I even get my Nickers when he sees me now.
Put my gelding on this for a grade 3 ulcer. He has never been better under saddle! I’m keeping him on this Several other people in the barn have also been using it. Game changer for the ulcer prone horse!!
I’ve been feeding Protek GI on my vet’s recommendation. First to my senior horse who coliced frequently and suffered from slow motility and impactions to sooth and protect his stomach. After a while he refused to eat it, and no amount of creativity could change his mind. Now I feed it to my 5 year old who has recurrent and highly Inflammatory ulcers. He’s been on it for 2 years or so, and it has not seemed to affect the incidents of ulcers. Most recently, after two months of Gastroguard treatment, we put him back on Protek GI. After one month, the ulcers returned. We will be resuming Gastroguard; my vet is reaching out to Dr. Sykes for a consult.
I never write reviews - but this product has done a 180 on my horse. As a Lusitano, his personality leans towards some anxiety and anticipation tendencies, which has made him prone to chronic ulcers of various grades over the years - especially glandular (despite making his home environment nearly perfect). He also has IBD of the small intestine, contributing to ulcers and having a sensitive gut prone to colic like episodes. After that discovery, both my vet and nutritionist recommended this product. Although pricey, it has kept my guy ulcer free for nearly 2 years now (along with a diet change to very low starch and high fat). Not only that, I've noticed a huge change in his disposition -- he is more calm both at home and shows and has finally gained weight after years of struggling to keep it on. It is a large amount of powder (he gets 1 & 1/4 scoop 2x a day) - but I feed him his supplements in wetted beet pulp, so the product soaks in and he gets all of it. This has worked for me. He is a happy horse with a happy gut. At 18, he is looking and feeling good and still out competing at high levels in dressage. <3
