Should I feed Cavalor VitaFlora every day, or only when my horse needs additional digestive support?
Cavalor recommends VitaFlora as a feeding course rather than continuous supplementation for every horse. It can be used when additional digestive support is desired, while horses already receiving a complete, balanced ration may not need it long-term. Feed VitaFlora consistently throughout the recommended course to support a balanced hindgut microbiome.
Can Cavalor VitaFlora help a horse that struggles to maintain weight despite eating regularly?
VitaFlora contains prebiotics and live yeast cultures that support fiber digestion and nutrient absorption. This may be useful for horses that have difficulty maintaining a healthy weight despite receiving adequate forage and feed. VitaFlora should complement a balanced feeding program, and unexplained or persistent weight changes should be discussed with your veterinarian.
Is Cavalor VitaFlora useful after traveling, competing, or changes to my horse’s routine?
Yes. Changes in travel, forage, feeding schedules, and daily routines can place additional demands on a horse’s digestive system. Cavalor also recommends VitaFlora following a demanding competition season. Its combination of prebiotics and live yeast cultures supports beneficial gut microorganisms during periods when the horse’s normal routine has been disrupted.
Can I feed Cavalor VitaFlora to a pregnant mare or young foal?
Yes. Cavalor provides feeding recommendations for both foals and pregnant or lactating mares. Current guidance lists 15 g daily for foals and 45 g daily for pregnant or lactating mares. VitaFlora provides nutritional support for healthy gut flora and digestion during these life stages. Always follow the directions provided with your specific product.
How long will a container of Cavalor VitaFlora last, and how should I store it?
Based on Cavalor’s current feeding guidance, a 2 kg container lasts approximately 66 days at 30 g daily, 44 days at 45 g daily, or 133 days at 15 g daily. Store VitaFlora in a cool, dry place and keep the container tightly closed between uses.
