Soy Lecithin – Gastric & Cell Membrane Support
Soy Lecithin is a natural source of phospholipids, essential for supporting the protective lining of the horse’s stomach and overall cellular health. It plays a key role in maintaining the integrity of the gastric mucosal barrier, helping to protect the stomach wall from acid exposure and support long-term digestive comfort.
Commonly used as part of a gastric support program, Soy Lecithin works by reinforcing the natural defence system of the stomach, making it particularly beneficial for horses prone to ulcers, stress, or sensitivity. It also contributes to healthy cell function throughout the body, supporting overall wellbeing from the inside out.
Signs your horse may benefit from Soy Lecithin:
- Sensitivity when girthing or under saddle
- Poor appetite or inconsistent eating habits
- Signs of gastric discomfort or ulcer risk
- Dull coat or lack of condition
- Behavioural changes or irritability
- Reduced performance or reluctance to work
When to consider using Soy Lecithin:
- For horses prone to gastric ulcers or stomach sensitivity
- During times of stress (training, travel, competition)
- When feeding high-concentrate or low-forage diets
- As part of a proactive gastric support routine
- For performance horses in regular work
Pairs well with:
- Acid Buf – to help buffer stomach acid while supporting the stomach lining
- Gut Basics – to extend support through the hindgut with pre, pro, and postbiotics
