GastroElm Plus Digestive Support

GastroElm Plus was originally formulated to manage pancreatitis symptoms and other digestive disorders in dogs but has proven equally effective in cats and for ulcers, colic and other conditions in horses. Since each large bag contains more than 90 doses (for large animals), it is extremely cost effective compared to prescription based alternatives, as low as 39 cents per dose.  It’s even more cost effective for animals under 20 pounds at as little as 39 cents per week!

If your animal has a sensitive stomach or is a finicky eater, GastroElm Plus is the perfect solution to avoid future vet bills. It’s also great for dogs who tend to get into things that they shouldn’t be eating. Simply give them a dose whenever stomach upset arises.

It is manufactured in the USA using a proprietary blend of high quality human grade Milk Thistle Seed Powder, Dandelion Root Powder and Marshmallow Root Powder blended with the finest Appalachian wildcrafted Slippery Elm Bark Powder.

It forms a smooth gel that acts almost like an internal bandage when mixed with water. It coats and soothes the stomach and digestive tract to help the animal feel better very quickly.

Directions for use

Dogs & Cats:

Mix 1TBSP of powder with 4oz of water or bone broth. Mix well into a gel. For each pound of body weight, give 1/2 ml of gel via oral syringe before breakfast and at bedtime.

Example: 20lb pet x .5 = 10ml per dose.

For maintenance - Mix gel into food once or twice daily as needed

Horses:

For active ulcers or digestive distress - 1 TBSP of dry powder 2-3 times per day added to feed. It can be mixed with water or aloe juice and given via oral syringe for sever ulcers or during colic episodes.

For maintenance - Top dress evening feed with 1 TBSP of dry powder

Acute Illness

During acute illness, you can add an additional dose or two during the day as needed.  It is best to give additional doses through out the day instead of giving twice as much at one time.

Mixing GastroElm Plus 

1. Start with 4 ounces of water.    

2.  Add 1 tablespoon of GastroElm Plus powder.

3.  Shake for ten seconds and allow to sit for a minute.  It will turn into a smooth gel.  Use an oral syringe to measure the correct dose for small animals.

* Leftover gel can be stored in this container in the fridge for up to a week.

** If you find it's too thick, simply add a little more water or use a little less powder the next time.

For horses, you can add the prepared gel to their feed or give using a large syringe.  For maintenance in horses you can simply use the powder to top dress feed as well.

For large dogs, you can add gel to food or use the same large syringe. Smaller oral syringes are available at most pharmacies and vet offices. They typically carry either 10ml or 12ml sizes which are perfect for small animals.

Ingredient Highlights

Slippery elm soothes and lubricates the mucous membranes that line the digestive tract. That makes it an excellent treatment for ulcers, gastritis, colitis and other inflammatory bowel problems. It’s high in fiber, which helps normalize intestinal action. This means it can be used to relieve both diarrhea and constipation. Our slippery elm powder is specially ground to easily mix into a smooth gel instead of being clumpy, so it’s easy to use with an oral syringe if needed.

Milk Thistle is supportive to the liver and other vital organs to aid in long term health.  Since it is a powerful liver cleanser, it helps rebuild liver cells while removing toxins from the body that are processed through the liver. Milk thistle is effective at naturally reversing the harmful effects of pesticides in the environment and food supply, heavy metals in the water supply, pollution in the air that we breathe and even poisons!

Marshmallow Root helps restore integrity of the gut lining by forming a protective layer around small junctions (avoiding leaky gut).  In addition, it seems to be beneficial for inflammatory bowel diseases, including ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease.

Dandelion Root has many nourishing and healing properties for the digestive tract.  Additionally, the antioxidants in dandelion root have been shown to be supportive to the liver as well.  It also possesses antimicrobial properties that can help stop the growth of disease-causing bacteria.

All four herbs work in conjunction with one another in a way that has proven to be most beneficial.*
