According to studies🤓 at the University of Florida, hay is overwhelmingly the most effective way to move sand from the digestive tract and prevent accumulation. The University of Florida tested four means of sand removal: 🌿Hay fed at 1.5% of body weight 🌿Hay fed at 2.5% of body weight 🌿Hay fed at 1.5% of body weight, plus psyllium fed in a single daily dose 🌿Hay fed at 1.5% of body weight with psyllium fed twice daily. The results indicated that feeding hay at 2.5% of body weight (25 lbs. for a 1000 lb. horse) uniformly produced the largest sand output. Free choice hay - via slow feeders or loose - supplies a steady supply of fiber moving through the digestive tract carrying sand out with manure prior to settling⬇ in the large colon by promoting gut motility and volume.
