I’ve used this with okay results for a few years, but my mare is now unable to tolerate the whey in this feed. On this supplement, her gut is more susceptible to triggers and leaky gut syndrome. For a company that promotes itself as being species-appropriate and without fillers, this just doesn’t sit right. Whey is high up in the list of ingredients for Omneity. I would love to see reformulations of various powdered products for our horses who are prone to gut inflammation (remove whey, DDGs, rice hulls, etc.).

I’m incredibly disappointed in Visceral+ for the prevention of ulcers. My horse has been on Visceral for 8 months, and was scoped this week. He had grade 2 ulcers in the squamous region and grade 3 in the glandular region. I understand ulcer prevention goes beyond a supplement, such as proper turnout, access to forage, etc. . My horse shows so he does have a certain amount of stress he undergoes but every other horse in the barn with the same management techniques (and not on Visceral) had grade 1 ulcers or lower. Additionally upon further review of the clinical study by both myself and my vet we learned there was no control group for this study. That doesn’t seem like an accurate study if there was no control group to determine if horses recovered properly from ulcers without the Visce...

None of my 5 horses will even come close to trying this. It has a really strong smell. Will dye your hands and buckets/feed tubs (and clothes) green. What a mess - not a fan. Maybe if they made pellets that didn't smell??? This is a no for me, total waste of my money.

I bought this to balance my pony’s diet. She has Cushings and IR. The first two days she ate it great, then on the third day she was totally put off by it and refused all her food for the day. I haven’t been able to get her to eat it since. I think it upset her stomach, and she was only getting a very small amount. I was really surprised that she wouldn’t eat it because she’s the type of pony that will eat whatever I put in front of her. I’m bummed that she won’t eat it because I really liked that it was made for metabolic horses and now I’m left with a supplement that I can’t use. I have a 2 star because I’m a big fan of the other mad barn products, but will be looking for other options for my pony.

The new packaging is very disappointing. Very difficult to use; please bring back jugs with optional refillable bags.

Bonjour, je suis vraiment déçu depuis quelques temps de la texture de la vitamine B … cela fait plus de deux ans que je commande les produits Madbarn et je parle de vos produits à beaucoup de personne …. Depuis la recette changée, la poudre n’est plus de la poudre , elle est pleine d’humidité… c’est difficile de faire nos cup et nous avons des pertes ou nous en mettons plus que demander à cause des mottons … se serait dommage de devoir changer de produit puisque mes chevaux les aimes et moi de même… ne serait t’il pas possible de revenir à votre ancienne recette ?

I'm new to buying this product, my horses like it; however the packaging is awful. I wasn't expecting a box with a bag in it. The spout that goes through the box wouldn't work, so I had to cut a hole in the bag--what a mess. I doubt I'll buy again simply because I prefer using a gallon jug with a pump per serving as other companies use. I do like the ingredients in it though, I'm sure my horse will do wonderfully on it.

I was hoping that this would help my mare’s digestion issues. She ate it a couple of times, but then wouldn’t touch her grain. I have no idea if it works or not since I can’t get the pellets into her.

Disappointed with the fact that the first ingredient is soy oil. My Metabolic warmblood gains on soy and wondering if it is gmo.Good customer service and products arrive fast.

I really wanted to feed this to my guy with IR but he just will not eat it. I've tried a few pellets at a time, soaking it with timothy complete, soaking it with roughage RX and it is a no go. So disappointed.
