✓Holistic monthly sand purge ✓Whole food ingredients ✓Ultimate digestive health
Designed for horses who are kept in sand paddocks, fed from the ground or grazing in sandy fields, Sand-Less is a nutrient-dense whole foods based monthly intestinal purge. Flax, tapioca pearls and chia work together to create an incredibly effective sand removal remedy while delivering an abundance of nutrients to the system which promote a flourishing digestive tract and the optimal health of the horse. Fennel compliments the ingredients above as an ancient intestinal remedy that soothes sensitive stomachs, encourages the secretion of saliva and gastric juices while promoting healthy intestinal flora.
We offer a fennel free option for pregnant mares!
*It is vital to note that Sand-Less (and as any other sand removal product) is designed to work along with a feeding regime that provides enough forage to the horse. Fresh water and fresh forage are essential for healthy digestion and removal of sediment from the digestive tract. A horse who is fed minimal forage or on a restricted forage diet will not benefit as much from a sand removal product as a horse who has access to plenty of forage and fresh water.
** 4 lbs bag lasts an average size horse exactly one purge of 7 days. 20 lbs bulk comes in one big bag and equals 5 small bags of Sand-Less (5 x 7 day purge for an average size horse up to 1200 lbs)
Although we use human food grade ingredients our products are not intended for human consumption.

Gold flax seeds, chia, fennel, tapioca pearls
- Cold-Milled Gold Flax Seeds: The high mucilage (soluble fiber) content of flax swells up to 20 times in volume when exposed to moisture and takes on a jelly-like consistency which traps and suspends sand, carrying it to the top of the cecum and out of the body. Flax is easily digested, non-irritating and contains protein and all of the amino acids required for a strong and healthy equine!
- Chia Seeds: Just like the flax seeds and tapioca pearls, chia becomes highly gelatinous when exposed to moisture. In fact, chia seeds have 2x the mucilage content than flax seeds do. The high mucilage content of chia adds additional bulk to the hindgut which ensures the cecum is full and that sand/dirt is removed. Chia also had a long and bountiful list of health benefits which can be found here.
- Tapioca Pearls: When exposed to moisture, tapioca pearls expand, become “gummy” and help to pick up and sweep the sand and dirt out of the intestines. Tapioca pearls are also fortified with iron and cooper, both essential for blood health.
- Fennel: Not only does fennel smell delicious, it is also highly nutritious! Fennel is an antispasmodic, making it a tiny but mighty intestinal remedy that soothes sensitive stomachs. Fennel also encourages the secretion of saliva and gastric juices while promoting healthy intestinal flora... and much more!
Reviews
I've read so much on psyllium as an Arizona resident ... Some of the less expensive psyllium products are not pure and become a marketing scam. I hear so many stories that even with regular psyllium treatments, it's just not enough to prevent sand colic. A friend of mine told me they were giving tapioca pearls from 24 Carrots to all of their rescue horses. I am so impressed with the results ... my Arabians love the taste and gobble it down. I mix it with some orchard pellets and add water, as they both are hard working horses in the sport of endurance. I'm really looking forward to starting the Inner Glow Immune Booster after reading all about omega 3.
This and other 24 carrots products I’ve tried seem to work well, including the mare blend. My only complaint is that the website is full of pop up windows and is difficult to shop. I’m not sure if I’ll continue to order.
I have tried other sand clear products and by far this is the one that my horses are willing to eat an not push aside it doesnt get gummy like the other sand clear products do and my horses eat it up first
Highly recommend
Sand-less is extremely simple to feed and the horses all enjoy it! As a manager and trainer of a show barn with top horses & ponies I could not be more pleased with the Sand-less product. After our vet’s approval all the horses & ponies have been on this supplement for months and it works just as well if not better then the other products on the market, that are not as pure. It is also refreshing to have a product that can be feed to our ponies with metabolic issues along with my horses that have allergies and not be concerned with ordering several different products to suit everyone’s needs.
PPID turned my haflinger into a very very picky horse. everything is suspicious, and will go off food for weeks at a time if things are different. I haven't been able to get any sort of sand clear products into her. She wouldn't eat it, and then would refuse to eat any grain at all for weeks. As you can guess I was very hesitant about trying something new but really needed to get some sort of sand clearing product in her. As soon as the company came forward with their return policy, I made an order that day. Super quick shipping, and guys, she turned away from her hay to eat this supplement and proceeded to eat it for the week long. I'm so impressed! thank you.
