Pulmorex is a complementary liquid feed formulated to nutritionally support respiratory health, immune function and overall wellbeing in horses.

With Vitamin C, Vitamin K and a targeted antioxidant complex, Pulmorex supports the body systems involved in capillary health, immunity and protection against oxidative stress.

When might Pulmorex be appropriate?
🫁 Horses exposed to dust, bedding or stable‑based environments
🫁 During periods of seasonal change or increased environmental challenge
🫁 Horses in regular work or competition, where oxidative stress may be increased
🫁 Horses needing nutritional support for normal immune function
🫁 As part of a broader, vet‑led management plan for respiratory wellbeing

Why these ingredients matter:
✔ Vitamin K contributes to normal blood clotting and helps maintain healthy capillaries
✔ Vitamin C & antioxidants help protect cells from oxidative stress
✔ Nucleotides support normal immune function and everyday recovery processes

Pulmorex is designed to work with the horse’s natural systems - supporting, not overriding.

📢 Protect your horse, protect the herd.
With Equine Influenza cases currently on the rise across the country, now is the time to act. Vaccination is more than just a requirement for competition—it is the single most effective defence we have for your horse and the wider national population.

Given the high number of outbreaks, BEF strongly recommends moving to a six-monthly booster schedule, especially if you are planning to attend shows or clinics where your horse will mingle with others.

If your annual booster isn’t due yet but it has been more than six months since the last jab, consider bringing it forward now to ensure peak protection during this high-risk period.

Why move to six-monthly boosters?
✅ Higher Antibody Levels: Maintains a stronger internal shield against infection.
✅ Reduced Clinical Signs: If they do catch it, the impact is significantly less severe.
✅ Halt the Spread: Helps break the chain of transmission within the equine community.

🐴 Glandular vs. Squamous Ulcers: What’s the Difference?

Gastric ulcers are one of the most common health concerns in horses, affecting up to 93% of some populations. However, not all ulcers develop the same way.

Squamous ulcers form in the upper portion of the stomach, which has limited protection against acid. These ulcers are often associated with management factors such as high grain intake, low forage availability, and periods without feed. 🌾

Glandular ulcers occur in the lower portion of the stomach, where protective mechanisms normally defend against acid. These ulcers are more complex and are often linked to breakdowns in these defenses, with risk factors including stress, illness, NSAID use, and disruptions to normal gastric function.

Because these ulcer types have different causes, they may also require different management and treatment approaches. Supporting stomach health starts with:
• Consistent access to forage
• Minimizing starch and large concentrate meals
• Reducing stress and supporting routine
• Working with your veterinarian for proper diagnosis

Signs such as poor performance, weight loss, changes in behavior, or mild recurrent colic should be evaluated to determine the underlying cause.

Tip of the Day: Feed by Weight, Not Scoop ⚖️🐴

A scoop of feed might seem simple, but it doesn’t always tell the full story. Different feeds have different weights, densities, and serving sizes, which means one scoop can vary more than many horse owners realize.

Feeding by weight instead of volume is one of the easiest ways to improve ration accuracy and make sure your horse is getting what they actually need. It’s a small change that can make a big difference in supporting balanced nutrition.

🌱 As spring arrives, it’s important to be aware of sycamore seedlings in your horse’s pasture.

After the high number of seeds dropped last year, many areas are seeing increased growth. These seedlings can pose a serious risk, as they may contain Hypoglycin-A, which can lead to Atypical Myopathy.

⚠️ Early signs can include stiffness, weakness, sweating, or a horse that seems quiet or reluctant to move.

If something doesn’t feel right, trust your instincts and contact your vet straight away.

We understand how difficult it can be to manage seedlings, but staying aware can help protect your horse ➡️ https://bit.ly/3wqDiu4
