Assure FAQs
Q. What is the ASSURE SYSTEM®?
A. A combination of supplements designed to support overall equine gastrointestinal health and sand clearance. Supplement ASSURE®, ASSURE® HOOF or ASSURE® GUARD in the morning and ASSURE PLUS® in the evening.
Q. What is GST technology?
A. GST (Gastrointestinal Stabilizing Technology) means using the right “delivery system” (granules or pellets) to ensure beneficial nutrients your horse needs actually reach the part of the digestive tract where they will be most useful. GST helps naturally maintain desired hindgut microflora by maintaining proper hindgut pH.
Q. I don’t live in an area with sand. Why would I use Assure Plus?
A. Although you may not be living in an area known for sand, dirt also consists of sand and silt. Many horses are maintained on small acreages and eat off the ground. In these situations, it is common for horses to ingest dirt, sand and silt, even for horses maintained predominantly on grassy pastures.

A. Yes, you can start feeding Assure® products as soon as foals begin eating grain. Directions: First 4 weeks- 1/4 scoop, continue to increase to 1/2 scoop until foal is 600-700 lbs then follow adult feeding directions.
