Sand Flush Psyllium Husk 4.5kg – Natural Digestive Health for Horses
Sand Flush Psyllium Husk Pellets are an all-natural supplement designed to help maintain your horse’s digestive health, especially when dealing with the risk of sand accumulation. Made in Western Australia from high-quality, human-grade psyllium husks, Sand Flush is a trusted solution for horse owners looking to prevent sand colic and support overall digestive function. Recommended by veterinarians, this supplement is a must-have for maintaining a healthy gut, particularly for horses in sandy environments.
What is Psyllium Husk and How Does Sand Flush Work?
The primary ingredient in Sand Flush is psyllium husk, derived from the seeds of Plantago Ovata. Psyllium husk is a highly soluble fibre that absorbs significant amounts of water in the gastrointestinal system. Once ingested, the psyllium husk absorbs water and forms a soft, sticky gel that travels through the intestines. As the gel moves, it picks up sand and other debris, which are then passed out in the manure, reducing the risk of sand colic and promoting overall gut health.
Unlike raw psyllium husk, many horses find Sand Flush pellets highly palatable, making it easy for even fussy eaters to enjoy their daily dose. Its low sugar content (WSC 13.6%) ensures it is suitable for horses with dietary sensitivities, making it a great choice for horses prone to sand accumulation.

Feeding Recommendations
For the best results, feed Sand Flush once daily for 5 consecutive days each month. This cycle helps to clear any sand that may have accumulated in the gastrointestinal tract. Do not feed continuously as this can reduce the product’s effectiveness. The active psyllium in Sand Flush is best used intermittently to support the gut and maintain digestive health.
Dosage Information
Please refer to the feeding guide on the packaging for the appropriate dosage for your horse’s size and weight.
Perform a Sand Sedimentation Test
You can perform a simple test to check for a sand burden in your horse by following the Sand Sedimentation Test. Grab a glove, collect manure, fill the glove with water, and squeeze the manure to break it up. If you see more than a teaspoon of sand sediment, it may indicate your horse has a sand burden.
